    Did Morris take Kiel spot because he is consider midwest? Morris took all the spot light is how i look at it. Go Blue rockon

    Take his spot at Gridiron Kings? ESPNRise selected Shane Morris to play for the Midwest b/c all the upper-echelon senior QBs were at Elite 11 at the same time.

    It was great experience for Morris, who showed tremendous talent this summer on the 7-on-7 circuit. Looking forward to seeing him play this fall.

    What do you think his chances are of being the top QB next year?

  • Does anyone know the specifics regarding Burbridge's academic situation other than "he is doing well in summer school"? Of all the receivers we're in on, he is still by far my favorite.

    I know that he is visiting msu today. Sparty says that Dantonio wont push for a commit because he never does and never promises playing time like Hoke.

    RT @JContiz3: RB Greg Garmon told me Butch Davis being fired from UNC definitely changes things. His top three was Iowa, Illinois, and UNC

    I was literally just about to mention something about Garmon - he'd be the guy I want in the backfield if Dunn stays steadfast to the Bucks

    I think we have to wait and see what Dunn has to say following the BBQ this weekend and then the staff will begin to recruit Garmon accordingly. I would still imagine Dunn is the #1 RB on the board.

    We may win We may lose But we always bleed Maize and Blue HAIL!!!!!

  • For any of you that care about this stuff like I do because of the math behind it, UM was bumped back up to #2 after Rivals realized their mistake in using Houma's nonrating in determining the point total. I'll also repost the link that explains how Rivals calculates their team rankings.

    FSU just picked up another commit so they could jump us.

    That is until the BBQ.

    We ranked him three, the college QBs that worked the camp ranked him four. I think he didn't make the actual Elite 11 b/c from where I was standing, I don't think Kiel bought into the ESPN rah rah hype this is a reality TV show thing. I'm not sure he gave them one good sound byte all week.

    Welcome Michigan fan, Go Blue!

    Based on my quick look, they'll most assuredly jump UM.

    My personal opinion, which means little, is that the thread either needs to be entirely for recruiting/team related news or it will continue to be a free for all. If people want to discuss OT things, they can hang out in the DNC or LNC threads or if they don't want to interact with the other gentlemen/women of the board, we can start a Michigan OT thread. All orgies, beat of the night, street fair complaints, etc. can happen in there. The problem we have right now is posters are trying to pick and choose what OT stuff is allowed in this thread.

    I vote for nothing OT in this thread and move all future OT discussions to another thread(s) from this point forward.

    Late to the party on this, but I 2nd this, if it hasn't already been.

    To be honest, I would have jumped in earlier but I don't follow the thread as closely as I used to due to all the OT stuff.

    Just my opinion, not saying it's fact.

    Love this new fan. Post in here more often and throw out a Go Blue every now and then.

    Amen, I used to wake up and enjoy browsing through all the new information in this thread that I had missed, but lately all the new pages have been dancing bananas and just general begging for upvotes without posts of substance. I guess in my mind upvotes should be reserved for posts that you really agree with or helped you in some way or provided information... not a dancing banana.

    Well, you could follow the posters you want to hear from, and filter posts that way. Try that first, and if it doesn't work, we'll continue to get stricter about things.

    I think the orgy should just move to the LNC for like the 15 mins it lasts and then everybody comes back here for only Michigan related info. The occasional beat by Chuck and such is cool because I like having something to listen to while I read but pages of goofing off is a little too much now.

    I fully expect you to have a Shane Morris rocking Michigan gear avatar. Get it done, Go Blue.

    I wish, so I'm expecting to be "beat" if anything happens. no

    Though, I'll try to get a scoop afterwords.
