    Surprised this hasnt been downvoted into oblivion. What yall hearing on Kiel? Sorry if its been asked ITT

    Your a veteran around here:

    Whats up with the downvotes? What makes you suprised it "hasnt been downvoted into oblivion"?

    Just curious why people would bother with something like that. I mean given the thread title- if your not a Michigan fan, or not interested in anything that may be said in the thread- I guess I just dont understand why people would even bother clicking on the thread.

    If someone's gonna downvote it, they likely should have never came here in the first place, no?

    Thanks in advance

    The tale of ScoutExile is a sad one. A former poster banished by his family at GBW, he is looking for a new start over here at 24/7. Exile has vast recruiting knowledge/contacts, this is why you follow.

  • Some info on Muller/Bars since they're PSU targets as well. Muller is our #1 target left and most think he's a heavy PSU lean. Many thought he'd commit right after Denman since they're close, but it has not happened. PSU fans are pretty confident here.

    Bars is our #3 or 4 target left, and we may not have enough spots for him. I think PSU would be the favorite here simply because his brother is a sophomore on our team right now who's only major offer was PSU, so I'd imagine the family is pretty close to the program.

    That said, no idea where they'll end up. Either way you guys already have a few good/great recruits on the OL and look pretty solid with Diamond. Guys like Peat and Simmons would just mean Hoke is getting greedy cool

    A big recruit next year will be OT, Steve Elmer out Midland. Handled Michigan 2012 commit Godin at the SMSB camp. Grew up a MSU fan and mom is a sparty alum. Will be pushing Morris for #1 commit in the state next year.

  • The Elmer household is divided between 3 loyalties: Michigan, Michigan State, and Notre Dame.

    It'll be interesting to which school wins out.

    Yea, I think I read that he is Catholic, making ND a serious contender.

    Edit: What, if any, is the Michigan connection?

  • I spoke with a friend of mine who was at the Sound Mind/Sound Body event the other day. He said he saw Diamond there and even spent a few minutes talking to him. He commented on Diamond's size (and that's saying something because my friend played tackle in the NFL for a LONG time. You'd all know him if I mentioned his name, which I won't).

    Anyway, my friend said he was impressed that the entire Michigan coaching staff was in attendance and they were "all over (Diamond)."

    I'm sure others outside the Michigan family are sick of hearing it, but Hoke and his staff are doing things that haven't been done at UM in a long time. They're doing the little things. And it's not some superficial gesture. They are genuinely interested in getting out and developing relationships with coaches and players from around the area. They're all road warriors and tireless workers. Obviously, you can see the payoff in recruiting. Every high school coach I've talked to has had nothing but positive things to say about Hoke & Co.

    Here's hoping they can coach half as good as they can recruit.

    Nice, from reading Chris Bryant's interview, I think he will be Blue when it is all said and done.

    It does a good job of fleshing out the Elmer family.

    Is that the Sam Webb article? Link isn't working, will check it out when I get home

  • I haven't figured out how to provide working links or quote posts. Just copy and paste the link in the address bar of your browser. (This might be difficult if your are on a phone.)

    And yes, it is the Sam Webb article.
