I'd like your list as well. I visit a number of sites and Rivals blows them all away with "insider" and first to report news. Well worth the $10. But most especially during times like coaching searches and big recruiting news.

I guess it's all preference. If you want to know when something happens up to the minute it's worth it. The problem is even the best sources on there are usually wrong unless it's an official announcement. Just read through this thread and look at all the incorrect stuff posted from supposed insiders. To me it's not worth the $100 a year. It was worth the cost maybe 7-8 years ago IMO. I'd rather just wait and get the usually correct info once or twice a day.

I'm not at my home computer, but I'm sure the 5-6 sites I go to you have been to. I have a couple favorites but mgorecruit is my favorite. I have spoken with the guy who runs this many times through email and know who some of his connections are. A lot of his info is from the internet but he knows a couple people within the AD.

Thomas Rawls received his offer and will be announcing his choice Wednesday. I would assume he commits to Michigan.

I hope so, kid looks like a beast. Granted, the opponents weren't top notch.

Barnett would be a huge pick up for Michigan IMO. I really hope he chooses to go blue.

Barnett and Cooper would be a great cap to the class. 2 guys that weren't Michigan leans during the process, would be nice to see Hoke be able to go out and out-recruit some big time schools.

Still hoping for 1 surprise, heard Timmy Jernigan still has Michigan on his mind, hoping Hoke and Mattison can get it done.

Can you say stable? We really should have one. There's no reason we can have 2-3-4 guys of all good quality.

Rawls reminds me of a smaller Jamal Lewis or Ray Rice.

This upcoming year kind of reminds me of the late 90s when Clarence Williams was a senior. He had all the experience like Shaw does now, and was the only upper classman RB on the team I believe. Then you had more talented underclassmen like A-Train and Fargas similar to Hopkins and Cox. If Rawls actually makes it to campus do you guys think he has a shot to play or is a redshirt pretty much a lock? Hayes and Smith should get a lot of time on special teams and a few touches at RB you would think.

I would expect Rawls to redshirt.

As do I. I'm curious as to what Mike Cox can do in this offense.. doubt VSmith sees the field much.

Same here. I think Cox and Hopkins will have breakout years.

Hopkins especially. RichRod frustrated the hell out of me with Hopkins this year. 3rd and inches in the redzone, lets run Vincent Smith, all 160lbs of him.

The right school? Michigan had a winning record every year before he got there. If you can not win at Michigan your not a good coach IMO. If you have a loosing record after 3 years, see you later. It's not like they were horrible before he got there. They would have prolly won 7 games in his first year if Carr was still there then 8 to 12 games a year after that for the next 2.

Not only that, how many "worst" records did they set while he was there? Most points given up in season two years in a row I think? Most points given up in a bowl loss. 0-3 against OSU and MSU. He should have seen it coming and now he should shut his mouth. He was TERRIBLE!

Just an observation about Fisher. I do not recall any Oregon OL in the NFL.

Who knows what his decision was based on, that's a good point. I know if I was signing it would be very hard to say no to Oregon. They may be the new USC. He can probably play sooner there.
