I hope Michigan doesn't get this young man.

If we really push for him this weekend, I think we have as good of a shot as anybody.

Also, I really like this kid as a fit for ND and at MLB. With losing Deeb, Grace, and Schmidt after this year I can see Jones coming in and waiting his turn with patience but adding some quality depth.

Per 247...the thought of committing on visit is tempting

Can we get a breakdown of his tape from LuckyLucci or someone else who is adept at analyzing recruits? What are his strengths/weaknesses? Why does he have a 4 star offer list, but 3 star rating? Who is his comp on the roster? I want to know how excited I should be about the Wiltfong CB.

I thought for sure it was going to be the standard....'I loved my visit. Thought about committing. But I'm going to take all of my visits and then decide '

Can someone tell me Jonathan Jones test scores? GPA? His Mother's educational background?

While I think it's common knowledge Michigan has some paths to a bachelors that are easier than any at ND, it's silly to think that exceptional student athletes capable of competing in the classroom are forcibly being dumbed down because the football program leads them that way.


.

Jim Harbaugh specifically called Michigan out a few years ago on the practice of telling athletes that had to choose from only a few majors.

I worked with Oakridge H.S. for a volunteer program. Not the best school academically, but they have a JA (business) magnet program.

I'm pretty sure it was this kid that Coach D and another analyst broke down the other day on their podcast. Coach D said if this kid was a few inches taller he'd be a top 50 prospect.

“This was my dad’s first visit as well," said Jones. "He loves it here. He thinks it’s a great fit here. He likes the coaches and he loves the opportunity for me on and off the field.”

"It's tempting," said Jones to Wiltfong regarding a potential pledge. "I love the opportunities you can get there. It's one of a kind."

spent time w/ Jaylon Smith(similar interests and because he is a stud), Asmar Bilal(because he chose ND over michigan which is pretty much where Jones is at) and Tevon Coney( because they are friends and from florida)

I know Michigan is enjoying some success currently. But what if the Indianapolis Colts get rid of their head coach and they come calling for Harbaugh. Harbaugh played there, coached Luck at Stanford, and he wants a super bowl like is brother. Think he leaves Michigan?

Or, be asked to leave? Word on the street is he's quite the handful. He had a great run at SF before they showed him the door.

It all comes down to how Harbaugh and Irsay get along. They are cut from the same strange cloth. I could see the two of them and Charlie Sheen out singing karaoke in Carmel.
