    is he not just another Justice Hayes?

    I would say they're similar players but from all camps reports Norfleet is tearing it up. What other top running backs are we realistically in on? Bucknuts feels pretty confident about Dunn sticking with his commitment, Marshall is a longshot, Garmon is a long shot, I just don't see another solid running back option.

    The details of my life are quite inconsequential ... Very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low-grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a 15-year-old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize; he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes, he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament ... My childhood was typical: summers in Rangoon ... luge lessons ... In the spring, we'd make meat helmets ... When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds — pretty standard, really. At the age of 12, I received my first scribe. At the age of 14, a Zoroastrian named Vilmer ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum — it's breathtaking ... I suggest you try it.

    I agree with this, UNLESS we can get an elite one.

    3. I'm only 17, but Hart. No one could bring that guy down. And he gave it his all on every single play.

    4. Penn State vs UM back a few years ago. I don't remember much, but I remember Henne's last second TD pass to Manningham.

    4. 2004 Michigan/MSU. I watched the game with my wife (spartan grad), 2 sisters (spartan grads), and 2 brother in laws (1 spartan grad and the other a spartan fan). My sisters said after the game that they couldn't believe how bad my BILs were. They heckled me like I have never seen anyone heckled. They kept heckling into overtime but you could hear the nervousness in their voice. Didn't say a word to them when Michigan won, just winked and headed home.

    mspeedkills Speed Kills
    Army All-American 5-star DT Aziz Shittu will take an official visit to #Michigan this fall: "Michigan is one of the Meccas of Football.”

    Do you guys think we have a serious shot with Shittu? We might run out of room by the time he decides but I would love to hold an extra spot for an elite talent.

    Pair him with Pipkins and our DL will be scary. banana

    Make sure you guys vote for Michigan in the Sportsnation Football Traditions Poll cheers

    If time wasn't an issue yes. But as we all know it is an issue and I don't see this staff waiting on anyone this year.

    I would agree with everyone on that list except for Dunn.. The guy wants to be a suckeye.

    I would switch him with Alden Hill.

    Still would take that class in a heartbeat.

    Another familiar name joining the 24/7 Michigan crew. Welcome to the team Joe.

    I agree with you on Dunn. The only was he goes away from OSU is with a multi-year bowl ban. We wont know anything about that until August at minimum.

    I think we're in pretty good shape for finishing out our 2012 class. I just wish we could take like 30, instead of 25. HaHa!!

    The more I hear about Norfleet and the more I see of him, the more I would like to see him Go Blue. If Mike Hart was big enough then Norfleet will be just fine.

  • Seeing the LBer rankings got me thinking, what position group with this class are you most excited about and/or doing you think will end up with the highest rankings?

    Mine would be Oline for both. We get Kalis and Diamond, and this group will be hard to beat. Imagine a Michigan RB running behind a line of Diamond, Bars, Miller, Braden, Kalis with Magnuson, and Stacey backing them up. Oh and don't forget about our blocking TE Williams.

    Not to nitpick... but Eric Magnuson is not going to be backing many people up.

    Plus, Chris Bryant will be a 3 year starter at OG IMO.
