I do not choose to discuss it

Just to emphasize this further, on mgoblog’s most recent recruiting board breakdown, there is a ridiculously large number of prospects listed under every position, indicating a general lack of understanding of what the priorities actually are, but OL in particular has an absolutely bonkers 24 players listed as targets.

Hard to expand that net any further when its already been cast to the 1000+ rated prospect pool.

To me this is a sign of nascent self-awareness, at least among the recruiters.
I'm so old that, when I was dating, night clubs were still a thing. I knew going in that I was going to have to identify about 40-100 of the loneliest and drunkest that were also showing signs that they might be in the "receptive" portion of their cycle. Sometimes the night would go ok, sometimes not, but my self-awareness and my willingness to take no for an answer and move on were my only chance.
Some guys have to cast a wide net. Some guys are Ryan Day. It helps to know which you are.

That's what I've been saying. They seem to have reached a point where they realize going up against the big boys is largely a waste of time, so they rarely bother.

The longer they hold on the Harbaugh the lower its going to sink too.
Them going like 8-4 (8-5 with a embarrassing bowl loss to a mid level SEC team) would be the worst thing for them. Its enough to keep Harbaugh around at least another year, but not near enough to gain any traction with recruits.

Which is understandable, and probably a good move on their part. But....
In the past five weeks, Michigan has lost recruits to Wisconsin, Tennessee, Nebraska, North Carolina, Michigan State, Baylor, and TCU (x2), not exactly the "big boys" of CFB.

Dumb, Dumber, and the DUMBEST....
So it took them until JUST NOW to offer a 5* top DB? They never included him on their list of like 400 offers already out there? Brilliant strategy.

C'mon bro. You don't think children of the 21st century understand the impact of a late 19th century brand?
I think you are underestimating the kids. It was only, what, 100-125 years ago? Brands don't fade out that quickly. That's like saying they wouldn't know the difference between an Edsel and a Packard.

I'm sure it's just all of those young guys they brought in to jump start recruiting finding their footing.
