Visitors for Michigan vs. MSU
I put together a list of visitors for this weekend. There are a bunch of official visitors, including several guys from California, although they're longshots. This is the first big recruiting weekend of the season.

Keep up the hard work!
October 5th, 2017 at 8:36 AM ^
That is an outstanding list. I'd love to be able to pick and choose from it. It's the first I'm seeing from '19 and '20. The future looks bright.
Pound Sparty and show off our environment.

October 5th, 2017 at 8:48 AM ^
Thank you sir, hopefully we get all of the good ones.

Both O-Line guys that seem to have a shaky relationship with us. A decisive win to put us at 5-0 in the Big House could really change things with both of them.
October 5th, 2017 at 8:50 AM ^
Thanks Magnus! I've been looking for one of these since this is such a big game.
Getting Amon Ra St. Brown or Bryan Addison would be amazing.
I'm interested in Marquan McCall being at this game. Should Ekiyor flip to Bama, I wonder if Michigan would restart their recruitment of McCall.
Also I'm glad that we're getting Dobbs to visit for this game. Hopefully that relationship can be reestablished.

What's the story on Dobbs, in state guy if I read correctly?
October 5th, 2017 at 9:11 AM ^
October 5th, 2017 at 9:30 AM ^
Dobbs and a few other 2019 in state guys have been trending towards MSU in the crystal ball category but its early and alot needs to play out - of note Witflong was apart of that
October 5th, 2017 at 9:58 AM ^
Some recruiting guys have hinted there is a disconnect between Bellville and UM, while others maintain there is no problem. Either way there seems to be something a little different with the situation.
However, getting Dobbs on campus is a big step.
October 5th, 2017 at 10:16 AM ^
I think we should push for McCall whether Ekiyor flips or not. We need OL depth and talent and the best HS player in Michigan needs to go to Michigan! Even if it is a down year for in-state talent.
Brown and Addison's crystal balls are all over the place (unfortunately none of them are for M at the moment) which means their recruitments could still be open.
Getting these 3 would transform this class from so-so (by recent standards) to excellent IMO.
October 5th, 2017 at 9:04 AM ^
Nicely done. Thanks Magnus!
October 5th, 2017 at 9:11 AM ^
However, I can't help but notice a distinct lack of gigantic 3* ginger OL from the State of Wisconsin.
Get your shit together Tim!
October 5th, 2017 at 9:11 AM ^
Those two offensive tackles in 2019 class look promising. Give me all the big men!!
October 5th, 2017 at 9:12 AM ^

Holy shit that has to be one of the worst user experience ive had clicking on a site. Kept teleporting me to the bottom of the page to some crap ad that did not even fit it the footers boarder correctly. Scroll up to find the spot where i abruptly left off reading - BAM teleported back down. After 3 times, i did not even read the article and closed the site. Yikes!
October 5th, 2017 at 9:21 AM ^
October 5th, 2017 at 9:21 AM ^
not an issue I have ever had with that site
October 5th, 2017 at 9:22 AM ^
That's odd. I've never had anyone report that kind of issue before. What kind of browser are you using?
October 5th, 2017 at 9:29 AM ^
chrome v61. I recall it being a burger king ad it kept jumping to at the bottom.
* EDIT *
just went back into site, and it did not repeat this experience. I did notice that the ad on the bottom was now an autocheck ad that was static. The Burger King ad was active - not sure if this made a difference and was the culprit.

October 5th, 2017 at 9:47 AM ^
but how great would it be to get Amon-Ra St. Brown to commit here. I can think of 4 huge positives:
1) We would get an incredible receiver in our recruiting class.
2) It would really give Notre Dame fans the red ass, because his brother is a great receiver there.
3) Would piss off USC, the current leader in his recruiting.
4) It would REALLY give Notre Dame fans the red ass.
Hope Amon-Ra and the other terrific recruits have a great weekend, and we show them how much fun a win over Sparty can be.
October 5th, 2017 at 3:42 PM ^
Michigan would also immediately win the best named recruit competition.
October 5th, 2017 at 9:49 AM ^
Don't forget to add me to the list
October 5th, 2017 at 9:58 AM ^
Against sparty. Should be an awesome atmosphere for these high schoolers to see another Michigan win. Can't hurt chances with them.
GO BLUE!!
October 5th, 2017 at 9:59 AM ^
That creepy burger king guy is forcing you to have it his way.
October 5th, 2017 at 10:10 AM ^
Holy 2019 OTs. We need to get those two. Would be nice to flip McCall from Kentucky as well.
October 5th, 2017 at 10:16 AM ^
October 5th, 2017 at 10:43 AM ^
improved. Saturday looks ok and Sunday looks great.
October 5th, 2017 at 11:09 AM ^
I still can't tell if we're pursuing Dobbs or not.
October 5th, 2017 at 11:21 AM ^
October 5th, 2017 at 11:32 AM ^
I don't think the two situations are related. Ekiyor is a 2018 offensive guard, and Dobbs is a 2019 offensive tackle. Michigan could easily take both if they wanted to do so.
October 5th, 2017 at 11:37 AM ^
is he more of a guard?
October 5th, 2017 at 11:41 AM ^
He could be, but I think he has the body type to play tackle.
October 5th, 2017 at 11:18 AM ^
Good list. A lot of them are long shots though.
October 5th, 2017 at 12:16 PM ^
better cancel the game then if they're longshots.
October 5th, 2017 at 11:48 AM ^
Awesome work.... keep it up!
October 5th, 2017 at 12:01 PM ^
Magnus, that's a nice looking list. Getting kids on campus is the baseline for good things happening. Letting the awesome city, the student body, the coaches, the academic programs, buildings and all the associated support leave them in awe.
October 5th, 2017 at 4:12 PM ^
Interesting there are no DT's on the list. I'm sure though, it's just a coincidence.
