hahaha..that isnt the best picture.
I thought for sure we would lose him to TAMU. Surprising and disappointing.

I was thinking, what kind of things would scare  off a recruit?
1. Grades
2. Criminal Record
3. Refers to himself in the third person
4. Addresses the MSU coaches as "homey"
5. Has a burn mark on his lip
6. Benches less than Kevin Durant
7. Keeps saying, "What else do I get?" on his recruiting visit
8. When shown the Clara Bell Center, the recruit asks where the game room is
9. Recruit expresses goal to be in the NFL by 2009
10. Recruit can't locate Michigan on a map of Michigan.
Anything else?

Greg Scruggs is a must get this weekend. The guy has huge upside and a great offer list. I know Michigan was recruiting him heavily before the staff turnover. Maybe the izzone can chant we want Scruggs this weekend at the game

Big Time visit weekend coming up!! I would be awesome to get verbals from both Scruggs and Fleming. both rising/hard hitting guys.
 Supposedly up to 3 'mystery' silent visitors here this weekend. Lets see if any are ID'd during their stay here.

Anyone know where Flemming is being recruited? I thought we were done in the secondary?
Thanks.

(they don't think he has the frame to put on weight, he's not quick enough, he doesn't make good reads, ect.) |
I was thinking there were possible character issues.

I'd rather question his size than his character, as you have alluded to.
Do you know something, or are these baseless, "armchair" claims?

Scout does not show Scruggs as visiting this weekend. I thought he was confirmed? Who else do we have coming in?

I wanted to see a kicker in this class, this is good news!
