aupops2 9 Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 I still say only take 2 RBs, keep room for 2012 slots and use whatever skill position slots that are left in 2011, for OL and secondary. Sid, I may have to lock this thread; oh yeah, I can't do that!! (3RBs) I like it Pops. We'll just have to see how it plays out. I got a good feeling about the 2012 crew & don't want to sacrifice anything there. You know, after the Blakely de-commit (yes it was) last week, things were looking grim on the RB front. But as Toby Keith would sing; "How do you like me now?" Look at the names: Tre, Buck, Dee, Andrew, and (I know something you don't know!!). BTW, Sid, my 3rd RB is Quan Bray. Yes 2012 seems to be loaded, but we're gonna get two key RBs this year!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUGoo 2,664 Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 Wow! His highlights are spectacular! I can't get over all these southern boys wanting to go to UM....SNow, cold, nasty gray days that last forever. I get cabin fever after a week of cold in B'ham! You could play in the SEC and choose to go to Michigan? What's the attraction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DyeCampAlum 335 Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 With Michigan the attractions could include stadium, academics, media exposure, and -- who knows? -- the cool unis. As for Southern kids, there's also the playing time consideration. The academics are world class, if you can take advantage of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could play in the SEC and choose to go to Michigan? What's the attraction? The attraction from a football standpoint is West Virginia had one of the most attractive offenses for a running back under the Pat White-Steve Slaton era in the past decade. Now Rich Rod is telling recruits he has Pat White in Denard Robinson and is selling them that they could me the missing link that serves the Steve Slaton Role.

AUGoo 2,664 Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 But still, IT'S IN MICHIGAN!!!!! My ear is not to the academic ground that much, but I can't believe that UM has any better academics than any of the SEC schools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is they have that rb in robinson but they need a qb. You can afford for rb to go down and replace him hard to replace your starting qb though. I know robinson is a qb but he just won't stay healthy against the big ten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have heard that unless Michigan beats Ohio State Rich Rod is gone. Many of the higher ups in the Michigan want him gone and have the resources to get it done.

Good to hear ellitor about um maybe help us more with hart. I just think the physicality of the big 10 will take its toll on a guy that size more so than the big east.

Michigan is definitely on a Vandy and also a Stanford level. They are as well known for their academics as any school outside of the Ivy League Schools.

mikeymac 8 Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 While Michigan is very good school it is not quite in the same category as the standford or Vanderbelt. http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-colleges/national-universities-rankings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest simonsez Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 he has great change of direction, much like dyer, but at higher speeds. Great balance and vision. It appears that he has a little bit of power runner in him also. Maybe a mix between Dyer and OMac? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh99045 0 Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 He's now 193 on Rivals 250. http://rivals.yahoo.com/Auburn/football/recruiting/rankings/rank-2602 Really hope he commits. He had 304 rushing yards and 4 tds on Fri, Oct. 30. Unfortunately, Park Vista lost to Boca Raton last Friday. He had 143 yards rushing and 3 tds. Looks like he might have 1,443 rushing yards and 22 tds this season. http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/2010-11-01/sports/fl-pb-dorsey-column-1102-20101101_1_mike-matulis-seminole-ridge-cody-preble http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/2010-11-06/sports/fl-pb-foot-vista-1106-20101105_1_tre-mason-park-vista-keith-byars-ii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
