Michigan inked a very impressive 2013 recruiting class and the 2014 class in starting to take shape as well. So far the Maize and Blue have verbal commitments from Wilton Speight (3* QB – Virginia), Drake Harris (5* WR – Michigan), Maurice Ways (3* WR – Michigan), Ian Bunting (4* TE – Illinois), Mason Cole (4* . . . → Read More: 2014 Recruiting – What’s Next?

By Lance Callihan, on April 17th, 2012% But the 2012 class will usher in a bona-fide 5-star in SF Sam Dekker. He is a player that can shoot the long ball and take it to the rim. This past season he averaged over 30 pts. while leading his school to its first ever state championship. Dekker is a player that could take the program to the next level and is worthy of keeping an eye on. . . . → Read More: Adversary Update: Future Badger Sam Dekker

By Sean OConnell, on March 2nd, 2012% I love football recruiting. National Letter of Intent Day is one of my favorite days of the year, but it can be somewhat boring if your school isn’t in the running for many prospects. For Michigan, Commitmas Day came a little late, or a little early depending on how you look at it. I for one will never forget 2/18/2012. A day when my beloved Wolverines received verbal commitments from six four star prospects in a matter of 12ish hours. . . . → Read More: 2013 Recruiting: So What’s Next?

With Zeke Pike committing to Auburn on Wednesday, what does Michigan do about the future of the quarterback position? I have to imagine that they want to sign a QB nearly every year and this year IMO is very critical that we do. So where do we go from here?

2012 Recruiting Board
The 2012 recruiting season has started off pretty slow commitment wise for the University of Michigan so far, but the coaches have been hard at work sending out verbal offers so far. By my count, Coach Hoke and Co. have given out 121 (give or take one or two) verbal offers . . . → Read More: 2012 Recruiting Update

Vonte Jackson is probably the top prospect in the Badger State for the 2012 recruiting season. Michigan will probably be looking for one running back in this class and they have made Mr. Jackson a priority.

Michigan only inked two offensive linemen in their 2011 recruiting class. Therefore, the coaches will be hitting that area very hard for 2012, possibly taking 5 kids. Illinois guard Dan Voltz is one of the Wolverine’s early targets and he recently answered a few questions about his recruitment for UMGoBlog.

Wisconsin’s seventh ranked Football Badgers didn’t toy with Michigan Saturday in the Wolverine’s last home game of 2010. They rolled out the barrel, rolled it over the Wolverines, and strapped them to it as they essentially knocked them out of the game before halftime, 24 to zilch.
The Badgers dominated on defense, on offense, . . . → Read More: Nightmare On Main Street – Wisconsin 48-28
