Michigan Tuesday: Early Enrollees

When Michigan signs a new recruiting class in December, your first thought maybe, I can't wait to see these guys in a Michigan jersey next Summer.  Well, you don't have to wait that long and many in this class will be enrolling this month and participating in bowl practices.  17 out of the 27 players are expected to enroll early.   

Here is the complete list with their 24/7 composite rankings (HT to Maize and Brew):

Five-star Savion Hiter: No. 8 overall, No. 1 RB
Four-star Travis Johnson: No. 107 overall, No. 14 WR
Four-star Brady Marchese: No. 134 overall, No. 20 WR
Four-star Malakai Lee: No. 144 overall, No. 14 OT
Four-star Jamarion Vincent: No. 168 overall, No. 20 CB
Four-star Marky Walbridge: No. 228 overall, No. 24 OT
Four-star Matt Ludwig: No. 242 overall, No. 12 TE
Four-star Brady Smigiel: No. 343 overall, No. 23 QB
Four-star Jordan Deck: No. 359 overall, No. 30 S
Four-star McHale Blade: No. 384 overall, No. 42 DL
Three-star Bear McWhorter: No. 514 overall, No. 40 IOL
Three-star Adrian Hamilton: No. 659 overall, No. 55 IOL
Three-star Markel Dabney: No. 741 overall, No. 48 LB
Three-star Jonathan Brown: No. 741 overall, No. 45 RB
Three-star Tommy Carr: No. 860, No. 44 QB
Three-star Jaylen Pile: No. 1,219 overall, No. 185 WR
Three-star Kaden Catchings: No. 1,411 overall, No. 117 LB

Getting bowl prep and spring practice is so important to their development and ability to contribute to the team next season.

I did not realize that 10 teams turned down bowl games. Even Rutgers turned down a chance to play in a bowl game. The Bowl Games are slowly going existent.

  • ND is really mad and may leave the ACC over their exit from the CFP. This should also be a sign, ND you need a conference. 
  • The question mark for Michigan vs. Texas is how many starters are actually going to play in Orlando. 
  • Michigan Basketball is #1 in the USA Coaches Poll and #2 in the AP. 
  • Sherrone says he is going to hire a QB coach to work with Bryce and the other young QB's on the roster. No offense, but that is something you should've considered a year ago. When it was clear your transfer portal QB wasn't playing this season.

All these schools skipping bowl games are costing themselves and their conferences a lot of money

I don't know about Michigan, but I went over to the Texas version of Maize N Brew and saw that three Texas players have entered the transfer portal and one player has declared for the NFL draft. I think the only starter there was the NFL declarer. As for Michigan, I have only heard about one (backup) player in the transfer portal.
