2) michigan is making a big push on aziz shittu, rivals 12# ranked recruit in the country. hes a DT currently committed to stanford, but is talking about taking an official visit to michigan. i think were going to get him, and he'd be the mastodon of this class. we have a ton of defensive commits, but no DT's so far, and its also a position of huge need for us. the fact that mattison will surely be the lead recruiter (the dirk nowitzki of recruiting), how can we not like our chances?
3) the silent commit 99% chance was wayne morgan, who announces on the 1st. i've made a big deal about killing msu head to head, but it seems like everyone who commits also had an offer from alabama--which is significantly more noteworthy.
i was a huge RR supporter, but it didnt seem like he ever had a class like this. alot of it probably is due to mattison at DC compared to the table scraps Rodriguez was working with. i think anyone who is paying attention, even the most ardent supporter of the previous regime, has to like what they are seeing out of ann arbor.
