Avery Gach Commitment Date Set May 3rd
Title says all. 4 ⭐️ OL Avery Gach has Michigan in final four with MSU, OSU, and Wisconsin. Has visited multiple times, multiple Crystal Balls have him at Michigan, but is an MSU legacy. Hopefully he commits and starts an avalanche of commitments for football and can be a leader in his class ala JJ, Will Johnson, Jaydin Davis, and others in their respective classes.
Also notable as the commit Seth has most wanted to land in the entire history of mgoblog.
In case anyone wants to read a Sparty recruiting profile on him... I recommend you keep reading until the last two "paragraphs." Sparty gonna Spart as Seth would say.

I guess they forgot the final paragraph:
Of course, these minor infractions pale in comparison to the achievements of (jealous little brother) Michigan State. The Spartans have been rocked by so many scandals the past 20 years that internet bandwidth prevents us from listing them all.
When an MSU professor fucking a literal basset hound doesn't make the top 5 scandals... you've got a problem
When I took writing classes, one thing the professor emphasized was exclusion of "presumed" knowledge... in other words, if a person was reading a political article, it could be assumed that you didn't have to specify "United States President Joe Biden" or even "President Biden." Just "Biden" would be enough for anyone reading that article.
So imagine believing you need to go into that level of detail about Michigan's NCAA troubles for anyone reading a MSU recruiting website?
Let's hear it for Wylie E. Groves, folks
On Falcons
No way, Go Maples! I can't even say that with a straight face.
Is it “Gach” like “hatch” or “Gach” like “Bach”? We need to know.
🤷♂️
Or is it "Gach" like "botch"?
It's Gach like "hatch".
It is this. I grew up with his dad.
I knew his grandma at the library.
One of those things. Some prefer "potato", others "potato". Such is life.
It's pronounced "Daddy". He'll be informing D-lineman of that fact for years to come.
Pronounced like "gash", I hear.
It's pronounced Yash
Hatch/Hash. Michigan accent makes it impossible to tell the difference.
Hatch's
Unless he loves making smores in the dumpster fire that MSU currently is, I see him wanting to be part of another Joe Moore winning O-Line at THE University of Michigan, where the cheeseburgers are utterly delicious
Ballz have come in for M in the last few days from notable MSU and OSU reporters so I think Michigan’s chances are pretty good at this point…
But are there any "notable" reporters from MSU and OSU?
Yes, they spray paint cars.
The good: We are the favs
The bad: Sparty legacy
The awesome: Sparty legacy choosing Michigan and giving the red ass to the whole RCMB
Sparty legacy means his parents couldn't get into UM - he doesn't have that issue. Seems like a no brainer...
Not likely. His father is a very smart guy in the financial services industry with whom I've had dealings.
Second this.
No no no. Every single Spartan grad got into Michigan, but chose to go to MSU because reasons.
Because…. Of the Engineering program - just like Bama.
Respectfully - their Supply Chain Management program is good.
I like that name Gach. What is that Dutch?
‘You Gach? Here’s your money!
Has nothing to do with his recruitment but I ran into his dad this morning at breakfast. Looking forward to Friday. If anyone's going down there and you're bored, check the Parents Award. Not a lot of great athletes, but a famous photographer, writer, blogger, and a couple of singers' names are on there. 
Not sure what award you received but I'm most impressed with your ability to post a picture.
It's the scrappy award for the least talented athlete that carved out a spot in the starting lineup. Or in my case, the athlete who picked a sport that had one other guy in his class and nobody in the class behind them (hence no winner in 1999) due to the coach being a drunk who spent all of practice in a bar, so that by his senior year he was the de facto coach who'd recruited all of the sophomores and freshmen himself.
If Gach likes to SMASH well then the choice is obvious,
ben braden could be a decent comparison. looks like a 30 year old playing high school ball. maybe a little stiff compared to other recent starting guards but he has the ability to move people off the ball. would be a nice addition
I don't see it on the field or in the profile. Braden was a regional recruit (and a good one ... I'm glad he went to Michigan). He didn't have an offer list anywhere close to this:

For those of us who played football at Groves, this is super exciting to have one potentially at M!
For those of us who edited the Scriptor because we couldn't make the football team as well!
Friggen nerds...
(Says the guy who couldn't do either...)
I was the sports editor of the "The Catalyst" at Farmington Hills Harrison High School (of blessed memory) in the mid '80's.
Our photographer was very talented but also very lazy. I still have vivid memories of dragging him up and down the sidelines at Harrison's football games so that he'd be in the right position to get the best shots.
