Recruiting News: DJ Turner expects big news on July 21 and Erick All shines
DJ Turner tweeted out that he expects big news on July 21st. Of course this could be another, my dad or some other family member is going to be on tv situation. But, Turner has been a big recruiter since and even before he committed so a date to be aware of.
Another big announcement on July 21??

In other news, Erick All competed in Football University's Top Gun camp. Not sure how prestigious this is, but All shined and won overall MVP of the camp. Good to see him performing and competing well and we're sure to see a ratings bump for him soon.

Go Blue and Squirrel Out
I was playing Counterstrike last night, and some dude told me Kayvon Thibodeaxe is signing up on July 21st.
Was that dude Ace Williams?
"signing up" meaning committing? We're not even in his top 5...
Signing up to play Counter Strike
Zach Harrison is not settled. But it is not all about him in his mind. His parents have a big say. His parents are settled. They want him 100% to go Ohio St. But he likes the players at Michigan, Don Brown and especially Al Washington at Michigan. He is conflicted, not "confused." The conflict is, he will respect his parents and commit to Ohio St. But if he had his druthers, he is committing Michigan. If his parents allow Michigan, HE IS BLUE!!!!!
Sounds like a Chris Spielman situation...will be the same result.
Man. I wish it could work out to make me happy.
Totally agree. The parents need to put on their "mature" hats and truly figure this out-along with Zach.
My moral compass says that isn't right. If your son has a chance to go to Michigan and wants to, you let the kid make his own choice where he'll be happy. The exceptions I would say would be distance if there were some difficult family situation or just a really bad program like MSU. That's Ohio for you though.
You haven’t been around here long have you...
Yeah baby you're right. He hasn't been assimilated into the MTrollMob yet.
Thiubodeax is falling a little in ratings.
I want Herron. But is he going Stanford?
Thibodeaux went from 1 to 3 WDE. Herron went from 4 to 10. Herron also received faint praise at the Opening. Thibodeaux is almost certainly still regarded as the better prospect.
This joke is still soooo funny!
Football University isn't too prestigious, but that's not to say it isn't impressive that he won. It's a mid tier camp, but there were probably still a pack of other B1G level commits.
Possibility that Turner is announcing an Under Armour/Army All American game as well I’d assume?
Really hope it's Keegan. Keep hearing we are in good shape with him and he's supposed to announce before August.
All these great OL's are coming to Michigan because of Ed Warinner. Effing give him a 10 year contract, with the highest pay ever for a O Line coach.
Let's see some results on the field first, my dude
I know Sam Webb has said that Turner is transferring to IMG, and I don't see that anywhere on his Twitter, so maybe that's his announcement?
Brian is uploading MGoBlog 3.1 soon!
Now with even less features!
Fewer
the more mgoblog changes, the more it stays the same
Yes, the big news is we'll be able to vote on threads again!
Overall, commenter voting is for lazy moderators.
Didn't Turner recently tweet that someone big was about to "choo-choo choose Michigan (and there was a picture of a train)"?
My favorite Ralphism.
Top 5 4 me definitely but:
"It tastes like burning."
I use it every morning with my fresh hot coffee.
"Teacher, my shoes are making noise."
"When I grow up, I want to be a principal. Or a caterpillar."
"This tastes like Grandma."
I like Me fail English? That's unpossible! The best.
My fav: "The doctor said I wouldn't get so many nose bleeds if I just kept my finger out of there."
I still howl whenever I hear Super Nintendo Chalmers.
Always fond of
“My cat’s breath smells like cat food”
Isn’t Daxton Hill committing “soon” and/or around that time?
Won’t be Daxton Hill. 102 percent of his CB are going to someone else.
James Lofton is the 2nd best WR I ever saw.
Rice #1 of course.
The DJ Turner thing isn’t Michigan related, per Turner.
Well you're a buzzkill
Lol sorry! Didn’t want people to circle the calendar waiting for something to happen.
You couldn't post that higher up in the thread? I wasted all of that time reading that for nothing.
Something exciting is happening for one of our best recruits and this somehow kills a buzz you have because the degrees of separation are too far.
Sounds like an excuse to get buzzed again.
But can he play LT?
(Am I doing this right?)
Lookin more like Erick Barely until he gets in that weight and nutrition program
Worst part about reading this lame burn is I immediately thought of 10 better (sorry Eric), here's 3:
Looks more like Eric Half until.....
Looks more like Eric Split until....
Looks more like Eric None until...
And a bonus:
That boy so light he gets blown around like a "tae in d'win".
I would be most happy with Ford, Sanguinetti, Keegan and DeLoach, in that order, being added to this class...any of those 5 stars, Crouch, Harrison, Hill..., would simply be a cherry on top.
You're right, we really need to see what the armchair basement analysts think about UM recruits.
"I'm going to a accident!"
Hmm. Quick google check and July 21 is the following for national holidays:
https://www.checkiday.com/7/21/2017
Invite an Alien to Live With You Day. Legal Drinking Age Day. National Junk Food Day. National Tug-of-War Tournament Day. Take a Monkey to Lunch Day.
My bet is that an alien monkey from Omicron Persei 8 is coming over to his place with some Taco Bell and a 6-pack of Busch Light. But that could be wrong.
