Lorenz: Dylan Crawford "Expected to Decide Jan 9th"
With another 2 crystal ballz in today for Dylan Crawford the writing appears to be on the wall in regards to his ultimate decision; this leaves just one holdout out of anyone who has made a pick the past 4-5 months. Lorenz is indicating today Crawford should be announcing at the Army AA game Jan 9th so you need not only watch for Nauta that day.
This now certainly looks like the guy Ahmir Mitchell hinted at as a 4th commitment "coming soon". If UM can land Delance on the 2nd it could make for another heck of a week in recruiting with two top 125 kids.

Buckeye and they are very confident
December 26th, 2015 at 3:33 PM ^
Rashan Gary #1, but Crawford, Delance, long and another linebacker would be great.
December 27th, 2015 at 9:31 AM ^
would be great. Another LB would be good. (very worried about LB obvs)
December 26th, 2015 at 4:02 PM ^
"He looks like he can play both ways" is the new "come to our defense and we'll make you the next Ray Lewis or Terrell Suggs".
The way people are extrapolating half our team will be playing both ways in 2017.

Crawford...Because there's a chance and Corley isn't coming here....
December 26th, 2015 at 3:52 PM ^
December 26th, 2015 at 5:43 PM ^
The dude asked "why" do peeps prefer Craw or Corley - the only one to answer was that he blocks - everyone else just said forget Corley or "Corley's better"...
Runs better routes? Faster? Jumps higher? Which one plays better?
They both look like great gets to me, so I'd balance how much I hate losing local studs to msu or osu vs the value of opening up pipelines in Cali... looked at that way you can't go wrong with either I guess.

Just watched highlights for both and didn't see much of a difference between the two in WR skills. Both are fast and elusive and have decent size. Corley might have a tad more speed, but Crawford is more aggressive. He drilled some kids and really seems to like mixing it up physically.
National ratings for the two are also pretty close.
I'd be very happy with either kid.
December 26th, 2015 at 8:04 PM ^
has a football body and is physical. Agree Corley might be a little shiftier with more speed but no way he can block an ant on the football field. He wouldn't be able to play in The Baugh's offense. Crawford all day. One of the best in Cali. Cant go wrong getting him!

That is an unfortunate narrative.

December 26th, 2015 at 6:27 PM ^
Having watched Corley I'm concerened with his not wanting to get physical - many plays on D he just didn't seem to want to be involved in contact.

I don't think that Michigan is pursuing Corley and I'm glad that they aren't...an OSU shirt when accepting Michigan player of the year award? Come on, man. No, thank you.

I think it's probable we have 6-8 actual swim lanes....
We sure aren't recruiting with an EUTM as if we have only 4.
December 26th, 2015 at 4:22 PM ^
Regardless of if we take another four or not, we'll need a lot of attrition. Presently we have 92 if all of the commits stick. If we take 4 more that's 96. We'll have to some how loose 11 players or greyshirt them.

Strangely I don't see Crawford's name on the roster for the game.
http://www.underarmourgame.com/page/show/1954367-2016-2016-
1/9 UA game commits and targets:
- OL Bredeson
- LB Bush
- OL Davis
- OL Delance
- DL Gary
- LB Jackson
- TE Mathis
- RB Walker
December 26th, 2015 at 3:49 PM ^
Yep, can't edit it now but that is the roster for the UA game which is on 1/2 not 1/9.
Army Game targets and commits:
- Jordan Fuller
- Mecole Hardman
- Isaac Nauta
- Donnie Corley
- Dylan Crawford
- Jordan Elliott
- Lavert Hill
- Caleb Kelly
- David Long
- Michael Onwenu

Dream finish would be something like:
- Gary
- Delance
- Crawford
- Jackson
- Long
- Hill (to keep him away from a certain school)
- Levi O / Connor M / Fuller

Levi O and Long seem to be UM v WA battles.
Jackson still has a lot of suitors and is going down to NSD, wouldn't mind 1 piece of drama that day to keep it interesting - just not 4-5 pieces. Hopefully Brown helps in that regard, we seemed to take a step back post Durkin loss.
Fuller I hope we can at least get on campus to give us a chance.
Delance, Sam said Texas insiders feel confident but so did FSU insiders 24 hrs before that announcement with Bush. #Harbaugh #SnakeOil Also their OL coach has some "Funk" to him based on what I read about that center who is transferring out of Texas on their message boards.
December 26th, 2015 at 3:57 PM ^
Matt Mattox. It was an embarrassing story for them, at least from my perspective. He was the co-OC.OL coach at Tulsa. Charlie Strong offered his OC job to Tulsa's other co-OC and the OL/run game coordinator position to Mattox . After getting turned down, he brought the AD and school president to visit the coaches and they convinced them to come to Austin.
December 26th, 2015 at 4:00 PM ^
Good good... so that means any relationship with the old OL coach - even if he sucked - is useless now for Texas.

at the Army AA game on the 9th, not the UA game on the 2nd.
Isn't Rashan Gary announcing on the 2nd at the UA game with Delance and Davis too?
December 26th, 2015 at 3:42 PM ^
Aha thanks, that makes more sense. Got my games mixed up.
