Video of WR target Gatlin Bair showing athleticism
He not only runs a 10.15 hundred, but shows great hops and coordination on the B-Ball court.
We are in very good shape in his recruitment so fingers crossed.
That's him and his brother by the way.
Would be really swell if he committed to Michigan and didn't go on his 2-year mission.
I agree, but fully respect his decision to go on the mission. I do think that if he commits, people do not realize that he won't play with JJ.
Yeah… he’ll play with Bryce. 😏
Shoot, that'd be Stafford to Kupp.
Why? He's not going to be a major impact olayer year 1 regardless. It's like a free double redshirt if he does go. The main knock on him is that he isn't as polished as typical similar rated recruits, so why not take two years away, he can keep practicing his football skills part-time and continue growing his already super athletic body.
You don't know how missions work. He won't be practicing football in his spare time
Correct. I think they are allowed something like 30 minutes a day to work out.
Depending on where he does his mission, he will be walking and on his feet all day. He will maintain decent fitness. But he won't grow fitness or football skills.
Exactly. One example of this is Andrew Gentry. One of the Top OT in the 2020 (I believe) class.
You're essentially saying he's going to get the same training and development on a Mormon mission for 2 years than he would on the Michigan football team. This comment is very dumb, sorry dude.
Him being at Michigan and developing under our coaches and Ben Herbert ASAP would be the very best thing for his football skills, not going away and doing volunteer work for 2 years.
That's not what I'm saying at all. He doesn't need to get the same training because it won't count towards his eligibility.
Nice hands, nice hops. I would like for us to sign him. Don't care about having to wait two years, just so long as he doesn't take his mission in some third-world jungle teeming with debilitating disease. He'll be bigger and stronger when he does show up. Plus, there is something compelling about an 18 year old willingly sacrificing two years of his life to honor his religious beliefs, it speaks of commitment and character.
Unless it's a religion that has beliefs you disagree with, amirite?
Impressive to say the least. This kid would be a great add to the team. I’m feeling good about our chances too! Go Blue!!
If he draws any penalties for dunking the football over the crossbar you're going to hear about this!
That's some pretty impressive stuff right there 👍. Extremely athletic!!
Really impressive athlete.
No problem with waiting 2 years, just a shame he won't get a chance to play with Colston.
Hopefully Michigan lands his commitment
God speed Gatlin.
