Will be very interesting to see who signs for them in the early period. Nationwide the vast majority of quality players have been signing early. If this is the case you will have a lot of coaches sitting around with little to do other than see whose still out there.

From what I read, Meatchicken is losing more players to the transfer portal than they can recruit. And 5*'s as well! what Harbaugh is gonna do is probably a sticking point, but the School up North will always be able to get a quality coach is a given. OK, maybe they're a quality coach with a winning history when they are hired, but Meatchicken (probably should say Xeatchicken) will turn them into losing coaches pretty darn quick. Go Bucks! PS, more sorry that our players won't get a pair of gold pants this year than hanging a hunnerd on them.

It'll be very open season on any recruits that dont sign, especially for schools like scUM and Texas who have dysfunctional shaky coaching situations.

Will be hilarious to watch said fanbases cry about "negative recruiting" like telling the truth about their messy situations is a lie.

But the class isn't just top-heavy. Going down the impressive list of prospects, the 16th-highest-rated Buckeye commit is still ranked in the top 200 nationally. The top 12 Ohio State commits are all ranked in the top 100 nationally. This is a staggering amount of talent for one team, and to put it in perspective, the rest of the Big Ten combined has just eight top-100 prospects.

That alone should highlight the gap that exists between Ohio State and the rest of the Big Ten, but we're focusing on Michigan specifically here.

And just like the blowout losses Michigan suffered in 2018 and '19, the recruiting scoreboard is looking just as bad.

The Wolverines currently boast what looks like a respectable ninth-ranked recruiting class, but it's a group that has as many sub-500 ranked recruits as Ohio State has 5-stars. The lowest-rated recruit, defensive end Dominick Giudice, is ranked 1,982nd, about 400 spots lower than the punter Michigan hauled in this year.....:lol:

Unlike Ohio State, the Wolverines' class is top-heavy, which explains the No. 9 rating. The group is headlined by 5-star quarterback J.J. McCarthy, who is joined by three other top-100 players.

Stripping it all back, though, if you took away the specialists both Ohio State and Michigan signed and then aggregated the national ranking of each school's commits, the average for the Wolverines' class would be 399.

Ohio State's is 127.

That talent gap is enormous, and it accurately highlights the trajectories of each program.

Harbaugh was brought in to chase the Buckeyes down both on the field and the recruiting front, but all he's done in his six seasons is lose an enormous amount of ground.
