Obviously there are still a lot of unknowns surrounding how Michigan will finish the recruiting class and who they will add from the portal for next year. But with all the positive momentum the program has right now with the OSU win and a revamped NIL program let's take a minute to think about who the program could add to the roster. Here is my list of top 10 wants for next year at this moment. My list is a combination of transfer portal targets and high school recruits who are currently in the portal or still on the recruiting market. I'm sure there are more names that will emerge that we'll want to add too but I'm just listing the folks available at this point in time. At this current moment here is who I would like to add to the the team for next season.

1. QB - Miller Moss, transfer USC - he seems to be an ideal fit for next season
2. WR - Donaven McCulley, transfer IU - the situation at IU seems a little weird but he has been targeted by the staff two years in a row now and seems like he'd fill an important need.
3. WR - KC Concepcion, transfer NC State - would immediately become one of our top 3 WRs and drastically increase the talent in the WR room. A top four rotation of McCulley, Concepcion, and Tyler Morris/Andrew Marsh would make life a lot easier for Moss and Underwood.
4. OT - Ty Haywood 4 star, #37 overall, #5 OT - adding him to AB would be great. If a plug and play OT emerges in the portal that would be great too but the future of the tackle position should be in good hands with Sprague, Frazier, AB, and Haywood.
5. Edge - Javion Hilson 5 star, #16 overall, #1 WDE - My top recruit left on the board. He's a high level edge who I think could immediately make the rotation (similar to Derrick Moore as a freshman).
6. Edge - Zahir Mathis 4 star, #55 overall, #4 WDE - Mathis has all the tools you want in an edge. It would also be great to snag a kid away from OSU. Hilson, Mathis, and Holly would give Michigan the talent they need to continue their run as Edge U.
7. Jaheim Oatis Transfer Bama - the injuries are worrisome but he had a very good freshman season. I like Benny and Pierce a lot but another ready to play DT would be nice.
8. LB - Nathaniel Owusu Boateng 5 star, #28 overall, #2 OLB - Would be a great add at the position and could someone who could develop behind JB, EH, and JR.
9. LB - Bradley Gompers - 4 star, #25 OLB - Another talented guy who could increase the depth of the LB room.
10. CB - Julian Humphrey, transfer Georgia - I liked the improvement from Hill and Berry at the end of the year but we still need another high level corner to come in and compete. At the moment Humphrey seems like the top guy.

So that is my list. Who would you have on yours?

Can't wait to see more "It's been ..... Days since Ohio-Soft beat Michigan" signs at WWE events! 🤣

These never get old.

Obviously, Michigan plays OSU at home one year and then on the road the next year and it's been like that for decades. I've always found the Texas/Oklahoma rivalry game to be pretty cool, playing it on a neutral field where the fans are split up 50/50 pretty much. If there was a good neutral field location, would you be in favor of the Michigan/Ohio State games being at a neutral field every year or is the thought just pure blasphemy? Just curious to see how others on the board feel.

Unpopular take but Moore not throwing Michigan's OC under the bus is the right thing to do and says a lot about him as a coach.

He's identified the problems at Michigan, and Lord knows we have A LOT of them. But he's not throwing anyone under the bus.

Rather, he's working on fixing them and getting better collectively as a unit, beginning with recruiting.

Now let's talk about Campbell. His play calling has been frustrating at times. I get it. HOWEVER, he put JJ in the first round. Recruited Brady Hart. Has Bryce Underwood interested in Michigan. I mean, Davis Warren looks like a legit QB right now and that too against the No.1 team in the country.

Maybe Campbell should NOT be the final play caller and just stick to QB coaching and recruiting.

Yes, this season sucks, but let's not throw the coaching staff under the bus just yet.

I know, patience is'nt sexy or fun but it's necessary in this situation.

......is a monster in coverage. Hope to see Barham more to DE and Hausman and Rolder at LB with NOB and Sullivan in the rotation next year.

What can I say...Im a Rolder fan!

Looking at next year’s schedule, I see no reason hey we can’t go 10-2.

I expect this roster to be significantly better next year.

Playing at Oklahoma and at USC will be tough though. I think we split those games.

Home night games will probably be against Washington and Wisconsin.

Thoughts??

Just curious if @Josh Henschke has any info on the info going around that football staff has been told to not give recruiting info to a certain site anymore because of the damage they have caused to recruitments. Kind of a big deal I would say if true

The positive vibes are back.

The way it was worded to me, Michigan is ticking every box he has and it’s everything he’s looking for. If it’s not U-M at this point, it simply comes down to him not wanting to be in Ann Arbor.

Open the link.

Michigan might not be out of it for a prospect committed elsewhere.

...for the bowl game?

Davis Warren
Jayden Davis
AO
Denegal

I go with Davis Warren if they want him to stick around.

Jayden Davis if his parents will let him play...lol...or if you're trying to keep him.

13-10 30-24 45-23 42-27. Other option 84-16 - total points Ohio state has scored and 16 for the difference to 100

Enjoy the win by doing some good in spite of Ohio state.

Since @Minocm has been dropping good news, and Josh is letting it play out while single handily changing the team after his rant, I changed the profile picture to prevent confusion!

Missouri did get a visit out of him and they were pushing but Jacob Washington is signing with U-M this week.

The ending sums it up for me. This will never get old.

I hope we can find a position for him where his athletic ability could be put on display…..edge rusher…linebacker or take over Mullings. I think good things can happen with him on the field.
