MGoBrethren this is your one stop shop for all things Signing Day related. Are Lugard and Gatlin Bair coming’? Will we have some surprise flips? Alll schadenfruede from Ohio potentially losing another recruit to Miami, Jeremiah Smith, is welcome here.

It seems like our announcements are slower this year...that's because they're having guys tweet the announcement from their personal accounts and retweeting it.

At first I thought, kinda lame, but it's obviously a way of leveraging the Michigan fanbase, enhance the commit's personal brand, and exposure...because every click and every comment goes directly to them. Which also means they're going to get more followers and enhance their NIL value.

It's actually a smart move. Michigan playing NSD chess while these other schools play backgammon.

It feels like Harbaugh & Co. have made a living with prospects right on that 89/90 range on the 247 composite. Roman Wilson, Zak Zinter, Colston Loveland, Mason Graham, Jaylen Harrell, Makari Paige, etc. 

This class goes right in line with that type of foundation. Roughly 15 of their signees are in that 89/90ish threshold. 

I also think Cole Sullivan and I'Marion Stewart are criminally underrated and stayed that way because of the lack of drama in their recruitments. Both played in high-level competition and were dominant.

Seems so strange for an elite QB to commit the day before signing day.. nobody can easily follow him, no class momentum. Yes some guys will probably join later but you're missing out on guys who did today who might have been interested but didn't get the chance to see the school etc
