Michigan offered WR Zach Bradshaw (6-3, 205) from Maryland. He will most likely be a 3* for Rivals when they do more rankings. He has offers from BC, GT, Maryland, NC State, Northwestern, Purdue, Rutgers, SC, VT, Virginia, Duke and WVU.

I haven't really heard unimpressed. I have heard he is a raw talent though.

Of course it does.

Michigan is looking like the runaway favorite to have the second best class in the B1G, again.

And, FWIW, I don't consider anything in this thread trolling. Just good old-fashioned rivalry fun.

On WR Zach Bradshaw, he grew up an MSU fan and his dad is an MSU alum.

What is Hoke policy on kids taking visits after they are committed?

In a nutshell, if you are looking elsewhere, so is Hoke.

That was what I was thinking and it leads me to believe that a 1 or 2 guys that just committed might end up somewhere else come signing day. I obviously couldn't tell you who but odds are a couple of guys might get some cold feet and want to explore some other options. Some might be a little slick about it so they don't get their scolly yanked

Hoke's done well getting the verbals, he just needs to convert on LOI's, should be a good class. Now with the big two hitting on all cylinders on the recruiting trail, it appears as though Sparty and Notre Dame stand to lose the most in recruiting the mid west.

I hear ya. The only thing I want to say on that is that Hoke and staff are very upfront about this policy to the recruits. In fact, they tell them that if they aren't 100% sure too wait. I think the visit policy is probably more common than what we hear about it. Hoke has just been very up front about it.

Any time you get recruits this early, you have to worry about losing them. I don't think Michigan is any more vulnerable than anyone else. Of course I expect Dunn to recruit his cousin.
