Baseball Michigan grabs an in-state kid!

Eureka!

Michigan grabbed an in-state 2024 who had options and gives U-M a guy with ace upside & two-way ability.

Hill is 6-4, plays football & basketball, can hit & plays the corner OF well with a plus arm.

He has a ton of pitchability on the bump with a funky delivery he hides well. Often leaves hitters off-balance & guessing. Rolls out a FB/SL/CB/CH mix that overlays at a high level.

Nobody shut down the OLSM lineup — 44-0 in 2022 & 87-1 since March 2021 — like Hill did in the 2022 state final.

As a junior against the best team in MHSAA history — regardless of sport — here was his line:

6 innings
3 hits
1 earned run
1 walk
9 strikeouts

Here’s the tape from that game:

Easily the best in-state pickup from Tracy Smith so far — which isn’t saying much, given the lack thereof. However, Hill, independently, is a pickup that’ll pay off long-term.

Can he enroll early? They need pitching NOW.

A very scary and unsustainable stat

We have had 8 fumbles and have lost only 1.

JJ has had a few bonehead plays that were fumbles.

That iowa one that Edwards ran and recovered.

Does anyone seriously think we'd recover that one against msu.

A play like the Edwards fumble that an OL happened to turn around and recover is basically luck.

The turnover fortune tends to disappear when we play msu.

Last year we tempted fate after JJ fumbled and it rolled out of bounds.

And 2 plays later. Yep. Corum running without the ball is burned into my memory.
