...poster on here, especially this year. So thank you! Accordingly, I forgive you for causing panic by starting a thread today because Sam Webb was anxious because Rashan Gary was too busy to pick up his cell phone because he was preparing with his family his commitment to Michigan today! (Talk about poor sentence structure).

Webb is the best there is, he wasn't playing games. And based on Gary saying he didn't make up his mind until he got to the stage, panic was justified. I'll be anxious until we see the LOI. But yes, alum96 has been fantastic in keeping things updated. I hope he has a debrief-post to analyze what went down. (And, re the OP, the Florida trip is brilliant in so many ways).

That's an awesome idea. Get the kids outdoors, enjoy the weather, plenty of practice, also time to relax and enjoy break. All on Michigan's dime. I lived in Bradenton 3 years, and that's a great time of year.

We've thrown it around a few times on the board, but when you look at historic average recruit (not recruiting) rankings, I think 4 out of the top 5 in the Big Ten in terms of average over the last dozen years or so are currently in the Big Ten East - Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State and Michigan State. Nebraska is the only other Big Ten program that average something around or above 3.00 out of 5 stars for a recruit - everyone else is considerably below that.

The disparity is not shocking at all.

I'm really hoping the submarine doesn't go underwater until fall camp. I'm totally fine with operational security before the start of the season, but spring ball is the time of year when I really start jonesing for some football content, any content, even if it's pore-O-vision practice clips.

#1 overall player in country Dylan Moses is there but I keep reading we are not interested in him?  Not a premium member so maybe someone can share why if they know.

Joshua Kaindoh is there. Jordan Anthony, Will Ignont., Jhahom Ausbon, Kellen Mond.

And I'm sure they have some nice 2018s and 2019s even though of course Harbaugh hates recruiting and will be in the NFL by then.

More important than 1 player is getting a foothold established there.

Coach Harbaugh is always innovating and trying to find ways to get better.  Seems like a great idea and another innovation to help the team get better.
