National Signing Day Take 2

  • 3:20 Michigan has flipped Georgia 4 star WR Brady Marchese 👍
  • Boom 5 Star RB Savion Hiter is in! 🟊🟊🟊🟊🟊
  • Michigan lost Zion Robinson to Stanford 👎
  • Michigan lost Julian Walker to South Carolina 👎
Welcome Brady!  He is 6'1 185 from Cartersville, GA.  His offer list included VT, UF, FSU, South Carolina, GT, WVU, Ole Miss, IU, Auburn, ASU, Vandy and many more.  He visited A2 in May. 

Yesterday is clearly overflowing into Thursday as 24 out of the 27 commits signed with the Wolverines on Wednesday.  Some big hitters still remain on the board.  

Savion is in! Michigan's two consensus 5 star players are now signed.  

Julian Walker the 4/5 Star Edge will make his decision between Michigan and South Carolina this morning.  UNC was also recruiting him hard yesterday.

WR Zion Robinson is delaying his decision until further notice as every Texas school is after his flip.   So we won't hold our breath on this one. 

Michigan is also involved in some flips of their own and hopes to make some noise with a surprise signing or two today. 

There was also some news yesterday with Michigan rightfully firing their Special Teams coach.  Penn State losing their entire class outside a couple local kids and still doesn't have a head coach as Jeff Brohm was the latest to turn them down. 

Keep hitting the blog and I will have the news with recruits as soon as it hits!

National Signing Day Class of 2026 Bonanza!

Breaking News:  Michigan has let go Special Teams coach JB Brown, which was a no brainer.  JB was on staff for 5 years at Michigan. 


Mid-Day update:  17 players are signed.  Another 10 to go.  The top rated player Cater Meadows is in but Michigan still waiting on Hiter's signature and Walker's decision.  Julian Walker is expected to sign on Thursday with Michigan or South Carolina.  

Michigan's top 2 WR's are under attack from local schools.  VT is going after Travis Johnson and Texas is trying to flip Zion Robinson.  Michigan needs both of these WR's badly and I'm sure the other programs are telling them that Michigan is a running back school. 

Michigan could be trying to flip LSU committed CB Havon Finney who is delaying his signature with LSU. 

Super WR Calvin Russell is not signing with Syracuse but is expect to go Miami.   He was high on Michigan at one point. 

Michigan beats VT and holds on to WR Tyler Johnson!!!

Michigan Tuesday: Yikes Penn State

Penn State fired their successful coach because he couldn't win big games and had a championship team this season that barley made a bowl game.  They let James Franklin go mid-season and he has already found a new job but Penn State has yet to replace him.  


All the big jobs are now filled.  Even Michigan State made a lighting fast hire after letting Jonathan Smith go.  In fact, I saw that Pat Fitzgerald was being hired before I heard Smith was fired.  Nobody hired Gruden and Penn State is still open after their AD got hacked on Twitter saying, he doesn't know who the F to hire.   Did I mention that signing day is Wednesday and James Franklin is raiding the Penn State class? Good times.  

The latest news is that Penn State is targeting BYU head coach Kalani Sitake.  I like Kalani and think he is a good football coach.  He is no where near ready for the Penn State job.   This has been an absolute disaster for Penn State's program. 

  • UK hires Will Stein Oregon's OC and its next head coach. CAL is hiring Oregon's DC Tosh Lupoi.
  • Coach O is rumored to be a candidate for Tulane 
  • South Florida is in Gruden's home town, will they make that happen?
  • James Madison’s Bob Chesney is being hired by UCLA, they are going to try to do the IU turnaround model.
  • The big story line for Michigan tomorrow is, what will Julian Walker do?  Julian is a 4/5 star DE, he has been committed to Michigan for awhile now but South Carolina keeps coming for him.  He was in town last weekend and I hope he saw the need for talented pass rushers in Ann Arbor.   Expectation is that he will make a decision and sign on Wednesday. 
  • Colorado true freshman LB Mantrez Walker is entering the portal.  At one time he was committed to Michigan. 
  • Star MSU WR Nick Marsh is also in the portal.  I'm here for Marsh and Marsh at WR, Marshall at RB, and Marshall at TE.

Michigan Monday: The Fox Conspiracy Theory

We need Pablo Torre on this pronto! It seems Fox didn't send all the clips to the Big Ten officials for the Jeramiah Smith fumble out of the end zone.  Which means the officials didn't have the angle to show him juggling the ball and stepping out of bounds.


Why would Fox hold back replays from the booth?

1. Fox has a ton of money on the line to have the best football game in the country this Saturday.
2. There has never been a #1 ranked team in the nation play the #2 ranked team in conference championship game. 
3. We have already seen IU play Oregon once this year anyways.  
4. Fox was too busy cueing up their next 1000 commercials to show us during the broadcast 

It's clear Fox lost the game for the Wolverines!  Is that how you do it Ohio State and Michigan State fans?  Yes, that play was a turning point, but Ohio State was clearly the better team on Saturday and still would of won the game. 

A lot has happened in college football since the game ended.  
  • Michigan received two new commits. 2026 4 star CB Jamiron Vincent (I like to call him Jam!) who flipped from Baylor.  Welcome Jam! and 2027 4 star DE Recarder Kitchen from Muskegon.  Welcome home guys! 
  • Lane after a long think decided to go to LSU and Ole Miss is not letting him coach in the playoffs.  They have already hired their DC as head coach. 
  • MSU didn't surprise anyone by firing Jonathan Smith and sending him away with $33M, the surprise was Sparty immediately hiring former Northwestern head man Pat Fitzgerald.  Pat is a good coach but struggled the last few years in the Big Ten when he had the Northwestern job. 
  • Mark Stoops was finally fired at UK, not sure what took so long there.  Maybe his last name. 
  • Florida seems to be hiring Tulane's coach Jon Sumrall. 
  • Arkansas hired the Memphis head coach. 
  • Penn State your up?
  • National Signing Day is Wednesday.  Crazy I know.  Its actually the early signing period, but its become the #1 Signing Day. 
  • Michigan looks to be headed to the Citrus vs. Texas or Vandy.  Should be an interesting exhibition. 
  • Corum might have has his best day as a pro, he had 81 yards and TD as the Rams got upset.  Nice to see Moody back kicking well for Washington. 
  • The ACC Championship game is very funny.  Duke vs. Virginia.   James Franklin is going to rule the ACC world soon. 
I have thoughts on Sherrone and Michigan's season, but I will save those for later this week.
