We’re also not talking one random Twitter like by him. He has a history of 100s of these likes and RTs going back to 2014 apparently. I guess UM HR had the week off.

Glenn Schembechler resigns from post with Michigan Wolverines

Three days after he was hired at Michigan, Glenn "Shemy" Schembechler, son of longtime Wolverines coach Bo Schembechler, resigned following social media activity that has "caused concern and pain," according to a statement from the school.

I despise Michigan and always have but it's also true that there are guys up and down their roster who we also recruited, "committable" or otherwise, who wound up there and they've been to the playoffs two straight years and we haven't. So I'm gonna be careful about puffing out my chest too much on this front right now.

To be fair, their out of conference schedule the last few years has been a joke, they really only had to get by a couple teams which were down. They also haven't been starting as many underclassmen as we have the last two years. Our schedule will be difficult in spots, but we have one of the most experienced teams this year in college football. It should be a decent year.

Oh for sure. They are way overrated. All they've really done is beat Ohio State a couple of times. But I wouldn't mind having Zinter, Cornelius Johnson, Mazi Smith and maybe Kalel Mullings on our team, is all.

My good friend recently became a season ticket holder and even he is pretty lackluster about their home slate. He is selling half of the games. It's an absolute joke looking at their schedule.

Everyone knows this, even all the other Michigan reporters.
His schtick completely backfired on him.
He was trying to be edgy & confrontational, build his brand, but what actually happened is he pissed everyone off on the industry & only On3 Michigan losers like him.
He pigeonholed himself into that job now.
Nobody else wants to deal with him.

They’re killing it on the trail right now. Just had a huge weekend with 4-5 commits and they’re in on a bunch more top guys.

They are at 253 & ND is at 249, yet they are killing it & ND is struggling according to many?
The funny thing is, if Charles Powers wasn’t such an idiot & didn’t rank CJ Carr 193rd, ND would be above Michigan right now.

I know it's the typical "fan" thing to say your guys are underrated, but it's baffling to me how many of the guys in this '24 class whose ratings are an absolute joke. On3 in particular has some downright putrid rankings.

Carr at 193? Bruh, what? This is what happens when you drunk eval. He is a top 50 overall player, BARE MINIMUM. Literally every service has him in the top 50, if not top 20, except On3.

Then there's Cole Mullins...what the f*ck am I missing here? Mike on the ISD Power Hour echoed the exact same sentiment. He just cannot figure out why he's rated so low and why teams aren't beating down his door. Dude is huge, has that quick twitch off the line you want in an end and has impressive film against some of the best competition in the country. If there's any justice in this world, I anticipate Mullins will be a top 200 player when it's all said and done.

Doesn't stop there. Guys like Leonard Moore, Teddy Rezac, Aneyas Williams, Bodie Kahoun, Styles Prescod. I don't think a single one of them should be rated as low as they are. I can somewhat see it with guys like Urlacher and Knapp. I question where Urlacher fits in the defense and Knapp needs to get bigger. But those guys, I simply don't get what some of these evaluators are watching.

According to that dbag Holland, they’re sitting at 4 silent commits right now. They are expected to go on another recruiting run next weekend. They’ll most likely land Chiles. They’ve put themselves in great position with Boo Carter, West, and may even beat out Ohio St. for Scott. I’d much rather be in their position at this point this recruiting season than ND’s.

Hopefully they're solid silent commits like Dante Moore.

I’d rather have our class compared to theirs. Also one of their silents is most likely Jacob Smith

The funny thing is, none of this matters. Results on the field are the only indicator.

People can agree or disagree with ND’s decisions, but the following are Michigan recruits that ND passed on; Sprague, Oden, Jerod Smith, Jacob Smith (when he commits), Owen Wafle, Cole Sullivan.

I don’t know about others, but even though the Smith twins are ranked higher, I think Bryce Young & Cole Mullins are a lot better players & will be much better in college.

Let’s look at it from each position & you can pick who you would take;

QB: I like Carr a lot more than Davis. Everybody likes Carr better other than Charles Powers. I think Carr is top 3 QB in class.

RB: I will take ND’s Young & Williams over Hanson as a class.

WR: ND, and it’s not even close.

TE: Michigan has 2 good ones, but if ND gets Nelson then ND jumps in front.

OL: Michigan has a 5 man class, but ND passed on two & never offered the other 3. If ND gets Lambert, then ND.

DL: ND processed Wafle & passed on the Smith Twins. I like Thomas, Young & Mullins a lot. So ND now. Justin Scott would push Michigan in front or ND way in front.

LB: Neither team has a standout LB and both have 2 right now. Need to see how they both finish. KVA and/or Shaw would give ND the edge.

CB: ND has two, one really good one, & might flip Beasley. Michigan has zero right now. So ND.

S: Believe it or not, ND right now. I’m counting Tae Johnson in the class & he is better than Oden, who ND never recruited.

There are two position groups that Michigan have higher ranked players.
But one is DL & ND literally passed in Michigan’s’ 3 ranked DL for kids I think are better. The other is OL, which will change drastically if ND gets Lambert.

Either way, it’s funny Michigan is killing it & ND sucks according to some.

Good round up. I'd say that LB even if ND gets KVA and/or Shaw will still likely be Michigan since they're probably gonna get Chiles who I am a huge fan of, but it's close. Their DL class isn't as good at the moment, but I do think they're about to go on a run there with a few and will surpass ND's even if ND lands Scott or Rushing. I think the same on the OL when they add Bennett Warren. But ND's QB, RBs, WRs, and CBs are ahead of Michigan's class for sure and it's not close to me in any of those groups.

Michigan fans had a sad realization about their class when I was reading their board yesterday because they think they can finish number 1, but when their fans put it in the calculator, it was constantly topping out around 286 on the composite... and that is with them thinking they will take 32!

ND did not process Waffle and I don't care what "coach D" says. The only reason he's not in the class is because he wanted to take visits elsewhere. They knew they could replace him with Sevillano so I don't think they cared too much, but again, I don't think that was a great decision to not try and talk him out of it. They also didn't pass on Cole Sullivan. They wanted him in the class badly and were surprised when he went elsewhere. Every recruiting site mentioned how they thought they led for him.

Leading for Sullivan is not the same as wanting Sullivan.
ND was filling that spot with either him or Kahoun, & ND liked Kahoun a lot more. If ND have Sullivan the green light and pushed he would be in the class. They wanted Kahoun more, and that’s who they got.

And I’m not going to use Driskell as the source. It’s been discussed by others, before the Wafle decision became public, that ND was looking to move on from him & the notion of him as asking visits was their excuse.
They want 315+ lbs guys in the middle now in Freeman’s scheme.

we have a 5 star QB and the best RB duo in the nation along with a 5 star WR and you would rather be in scUM's shoes right now.

Yep. This coming from somebody who liked Wafle and I don't really agree with moving on from him, but it's pretty clear that the coaches were looking for more of a NT body for that slot. People need to remember that Bryce Young had been recruited as a Vyper/End for a while. Then he showed up to camp at 6'6 250, packing on 40 pounds in the span of a year. Staff probably knows that he's going to grow into a 5T/3T and not a true edge like we originally thought.
