My question is how does Mich take DPJ, Black, Collins and Martin when they only lose two WR's? Stuff like this makes the conspiracy theory of Black to ND seem possible.

Easy. They'll have 4 spaces open for WR's.

They'll lose Chesson and Darboh to graduation. 2016 signee Ahmir Mitchell decided he'd rather transfer than sit out a year as punishment, and 2016 signee Brad Hawkins failed to qualify and had to enroll at a prep school. I've only ever seen Michigan take 1 kid from a prep school bc he failed to qualify and they've only ever taken 1 JUCO player in like 20 years. They just don't take JUCO's and Prep kids for some reason.

Hawkins actually signed and then wasn't an NCAA qualifier? Ouch.

Still seem to be carrying a lot of WR's for the level of importance the program places on them. Bet all 4 don't show up.

Top Iowa WRs love to go to Michigan for some reason.

Basically sounds like he in undecided but most people think Michigan. The interesting note was about the potential of him visiting again and getting a visit from our coaches.

I think he's one of the most important players left on the board for Notre Dame, but I also think he's a longshot unless Michigan considers themselves full up. That's just my opinion, not 247.

Tough to tell without going into each bio or knowing if Hairball will show an underclassmen or four the door but they only have 2 WR's coming off scholarship in #1 Darboh and #2 Chesson.

From the sounds of it, the WR haul for '17 would be:

#1 - DPJ
#2 - Nicco Collins
#3 - Tarik Black
#4 - O Martin

Is there room? Take them all and what position gets shorted? I mean, Hairball has 304 offers out. ( Don't hate the players game, hate the player)

I see some Swensoning come this January/February

there will definitely be some Swensoning. Always has been, always will be. It's just how Harbaugh recruits.

Michigan "insiders" have said they'll take 4, but if it came down to it Martin is higher on the board than Tarik. DPJ and Nico Collins are the top priorities though.

Don't know how you people live with that. Just watch the Lions if that's all it's about.

Well if that's the case we're effed. Also, Michigan's swimming is WAY better tha ND's as far as I'm aware.

It's because they sold their soul to lose to Iowa with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind.

So he'll see the participation trophies our players and coaches will receive this year. God knows they shouldn't be getting any real awards.

Untrue.

I'd like to nominate DK for the Joe Schmidt Regression award. Quite an accomplishment when you consider he did it without a major injury.

Come on now... someone rep a brother up!

Max Redfield for the Max Redfield Award given to ND's knucklehead of the year.

To me, it seems like he wants to be here, but he's worried with too much uncertainty around the program.

What's the rush? He's got plenty of time to see what shakes out at ND. Every Midwest team he's interested in him will take him even he pulls a Demetris Robertson.

What I meant was it seems he likes ND the most and if we had a successful season he'd already be Irish but it's been so bad that he doesn't know if it's worth it to come.
