Some fun mgoblog reading on a Friday night.

It’s hard work identifying guys ranked outside the top 1000 and making absolutely no effort to land them because there is no competition. I, too, appreciate that about their staff.
Sure, they didn’t make the top six, but DFBIA is feeling good about this one.

They keep talking about how they are evaluating every kid in the country to find hidden gems.
That is NOT how the big boys do it. The big boys go after the polished gems that everyone knows about and brings them home to compete for championships.
UM is following the IU blueprint and doing so with MAC level coaches.

Yes, yes…5* kids are definitely legitimately considering the school with the head coach that is basically a punchline right now after being put on what is, essentially, a year-to-year contract. To play for a program that hasn’t been nationally relevant in almost 2 decades. Yes, keep an eye on those 5* kids.

The Duece Kid their main chattering are “his name is cool” and “right out of Bamas back yard!” (As if they are pulling some kind of fast one, Even though Bama seemingly has never shown any interest)
That’s always a great thing

Head Coach
Wait, you mean competent programs don't hire 100 analysts and their large sons to look at HUDL highlights of 1k+ players from Maine, Connecticut, Vermont, Guam, the Midway Atoll, Wyoming, and Rhode Island? Gonna need some proof.

I present to you their discussion about Walter Nolen.
https://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/walter-nolen-names-top-5
DFBIA is really tuned in to what recruits really care about when selecting a school, and what sets Michigan apart.
It’s not a comprehensive plan for their future with a proven track record of support and success on and off the field, or the relationships they establish with the coaches... it’s who offered to let them wear the #0 first. The other teams can’t compete with that by also indicating he can wear #0, he’ll always remember who was first.
Do they actually believe this? The solid color pants, solid color jersey is really something you could pick out of a lineup. I’m assuming they base this thought 100% on the helmet... which I believe they stole from Princeton, if I’m not mistaken. It’s a small thing in the grand scheme of things, but this opinion is also pretty stupid.
The schools demonstrating results with numbers that they can highlight and share with recruits is nice and all, but the key to NIL is definitely tweeting at players. Tennessee will be unstoppable.
Yes, Walter Nolen seems like the type who doesn’t want to get drafted or compete for championships at the schools who have proven they are the best at both, thank goodness... otherwise Michigan would have no shot.
I’m thinking Alabama isn’t going to land Jordan Battle and tell Nolen there isn’t any room for him, so the hopes that this will be another Dax Hill situation seem misplaced.
And this is it, possibly the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen out of DFBIA.
Yes, the key to the Nolen recruitment will be how much he wants to play with their class of mostly completely unknown, under-the-radar, barely ranked recruits. DFBIA is feeling good because they have a few guys from Tennessee, and as we all know, being marginally connected to a player by proximity is the tightest bond you can form.
And finally, more optimism for the player they missed the top six cut for, because why not?

So.... what can you offer me if I commit to play here?
Well.. if you like gimmicks, we have that in spades. You want to wear number zero? No problem. We have blue jerseys and maize colored pants. Don't think you're going to find that at Alabama. And we are amassing an army of 3 star guys to surround you with. Some of them are even from the south. Finally, our head coach may or may not want to be here, and may or may not be here next year. We don't really know. So, if you like surprises....

WHOA, hold up! Their young, new and improved coaches have finally found football players in CA, GA, TN and FL! So bite your tongue
Btw, I wanted a good laugh so I checked out their recruiting board:
https://mgoblog.com/content/2022-recruiting-board
Who writes their descriptions of recruits, a 14yo girl on Snapchat or Twitter?
An example of a few:
Omari Hampton- Toussaint-like(whatever the F that means)
Tobias Merriweather- Dad from Detroit(SO
)Marquarius White- Nico's School(Again SO
)George Fitzpatrick- Super Athlete, should be a 5star(thanks for the compliment of the future Buckeye
)Walter Nolen- Elite! Close with K. Jones, W. Johnson. Grandparent from MI(my God, they're really going to milk that grandparent thing for all its worth. Because a top recruit, only cares about having granny see him play
)Peter Taoipu- Nua Connect(That means what
)I could go on and on, but you kind of get the point

This is their recruiting savior. I don't see this hire to be made other than for recruiting. Someone in that program has to have seen the talent gap that is widening with OSU, Ped St, and its possible even IU could catch up and pass them.
So it seems like he's also going to be babysitting the new coaches as well.
