yes, they pulled both schollies. Interesting given our position with Cameron. He says signing day decision for him. I think that is a forced issue as a great backup plan b for some expected signing day commits for us.

yea aren't we like their only offers? There must be a reason they are waiting. If we get scruggs and perry I would assume Cameron would be left out of the picture?

Alright so who is skipping class or work on signing day and watch ESPNU for all the announcements? I see that Ingram has set his announcement for 9am and Perry will decide sometime on that day too

I'll just check the internet. I don't expect that many MSU guys to commit on live tv anywhere. I'm sure spartanmag will have some good live coverage of where recruits we have left are going.

Yeah I don't think you need to skip class or work or anything. Rivals will be covering things better than any TV station.

I'm sure you'll be watching ESPN U or the internet for the Pryor news. I heard a bunch of OSU commits went to his bball game and then hung out with him afterwords this weekend

Dude. Seriously? Cut and paste stuff from SpartanMag? At least re-write the stuff.

Nope- I'm already planning on him going to OSU.

Well he should've! Why the heck would he want to go to UM!?!?!
I'm actually fine with our OL class right now, we've got 4 guys this year, and 2 from last year (3 if Ray plays). I think we're good on that front for a little while.
It's going to be interesting to see what SCum looks like next year, this is a great class for you guys, I wish we could steal a few, particularly Fitzgerald

I'm amazed at how much of the class is sticking. It's looking like worst case scenario is losing 1-2 guys.
Oh and UM's LB class is just nuts.
Need more OL though, and obviously a QB.

Anything bad for Kelly is good to me.

It is impressive Big M. You only kept 1 coach yet you've been able to keep every recruit so far. Very impressive job. You have to applaud the previous coaching staff as well as the new one. To keep all ur recruits shows you guys got some pretty good coaches down there now in A2.

Yea from what I've heard hes got a ton of room to grow and that hes 6' 6" now. Kelly locked his recruitment up before anyone else could get on him. Word is OSU came very close to offering him in the winter, now U of M and I assume MSU as well.
I think Academics are big for him, which is why he visited U of M. If thats a key decision for him, I don't see how we beat U of M there, but if hes looking for PT, MSU is where he needs to be going.

Well one of those, Morales, is a longsnapper. Yes- Lloyd offered a scholarship to 6 foot 250 pound longsnapper.
And UM's OL depth is horrible right now.

that is surprising, but I guess it just shows they commit to the school and not a coach - unlike Nichol

Heres a good word on Omameh:
From Dave Berk the Cinci Scout insider.
"This kid is going to be a great player. Great shoulders and a body to build that will make him a very athletic OL. Watched him in camp and felt he could play anywhere he wanted."

Also Perry gave his Michigan visit a 10 and said they are right up there with USC for his services. Will be a scout article about it soon.

His Rivals article wasn't as glowing. I think UM has a good shot, but it will go down to the wire IMO.
