Predictions on remaining recruits...

Don't know how Bectil is - sounds like a medicine :) Here are mine - slightly more pessimistic compared to yours:
  • Safety from Mass - yes
  • Tufele - no, going to USC
  • Collins - yes
  • Becton - no, going to VTech
  • Martin - no, he will end up in ND cause he'd be the guy there and we stopped paying attention to him until he became a 4-star
  • Solomon - I say no, I fully expect with Saban getting the last visit and their shady recruiting practices, this one goes to Bama.
Solomon's case seems similar to Malik M. when his parents really wanted him to come to Michigan but he wanted to go to MSU and "not study" and that ended up getting drawn out and after he turned 18 he made the decision.
 
Solomon - I want to say yes
Martin - yes
One of the other guys. - yes

Maybe we get a surprise but I doubt it

We only sign 3 or 4 my guess.
 
Martin--yes
Solomon--yes
Bectil-no
Collins-no
Wildly named safety from Mass.-yes
Toufeli-no
Surprise?-no

Thoughts?

Now that you butchered half of their names- none of them are coming ...:p

Based on what I am reading on some of the other boards it sounds like:

Solomon - Yes (I will believe this when it happens lol) But their was a massive roar at sometime Saturday on mgoblog - I have to believe it was this or Martin committing. - ALA/GA
Collins - Yes/Heavily trending back our way - GA/ALA
Martin - Yes - OSU/ND/MSU
Melifonwu - Yes/Probably - Syracuse
Becton - No/Maybe- VT
Tufele - No - Utah/SC
Gay - Unlikely - LSU/MIS ST

That is a lot of wr's combined in the last couple of classes. I would think somebody like McDoom would be moved to defense?

We sign 3 (including Martin of course) and 1 additional surprise for 4 Kings and win the Pot the Hand and end up #3 ranked class..Biggest obstacle 'Bama & Bucks, most auspices signs for M is coaching staff, academics, reputation brand, and integrity. Go Blue! Fall '17 my 39th straight yr seasons tickets and 45 years of games attended.

McDoom to defense? Our one consistent freshman WR threat? o_O

Hawkins will likely get a shot at safety, and you're going to see a lot more 3 and 4 wide this year, so these guys will get an opportunity.

Seriously McDoom is the frosh WR that significantly contributed last year, RM's suggestion makes no sense...

I was far too lazy to bother looking up the spellings and I'm daring any of these guys to not go to UM on my account.
 
We should be stacked at the WR position for the next few years with McDoom, Johnson, Crawford, DPJ, Black, Martin, Collins (assuming he comes) and Hawkins. I expect that Hawkins will likely end up on defense at some point and I imagine that 3 of the players will likely RS a year too. I like the make up of this recruiting class. I wish we could have gotten a couple more offensive linemen in there. Next year, the biggest need will be O-line and RBs for the class. I imagine we don't go after too many WRs in 2018.

Here is why I said that....


1. McDoom wasn't catching lots of passes but running the ball.
2. He is a slot guy with plenty of competition. See Martin.
3. He has pretty good feet and hips. Looks like a guy who could succeed at corner.

As someone else mentioned...Hawkins looks like he could be a good safety.

Can he run the jet sweep at corner, he was our most effective option by far running that on the edge? Fair enough on the comment, just doesn't make much sense moving a slot like him out when Perry's future is a big question and Martin is a mere frosh.
