2022 Worthless Recruiting Thread

[Mdot21]

2023 five star safety and Buckeye commit Sonny Styles plans to reclassify into the 2022 class. The Lord taketh away and the Lord giveth.

just browsing the OSU commit list...that's a whale of a LB'er class with Styles re-classifying. This is me assuming of course that Styles will grow into a LB'er- which imo- he probably will considering he's not even a SR in high school yet and he's that size.

5* CJ Hicks (6'3, 215)
5* Sonny Styles (6'4, 215)
4* Gabe Powers (6'4, 230) - Top 100 recruit

All from Ohio. That's the kind of class Day needs to stop Harbaugh from ramming the ball down his throat on the ground in the future. Lacking the big uglies upfront so far to keep them clean though. Lots of time til NSD of course.

The most important recruit on that front is probably from Okie State

Totally agree.   It has been more scheme than anything.  
When you run the same basic 4-2-5 with no tweaks, or disguises,  no matter what the offense does, it makes it really easy to pick it apart with counters, traps, and pulling guards, as well as misdirection.

Clemson suffering a string of big-time de-commitments from their defense after Venables takes the OU job.

Another big-one bites the dust today for Clemson. This now makes 3 highly rated top 100 recruits in about 4-5 days that Clemson has lost post-Venables to OU. All from the same high school- IMG in Florida.

4* S Keon Sabb (6'2, 200) #94 player overall, #9 safety in the 247Composite.

4* EDGE Jihaad Campbell (6'3, 215) #78 overall, #9 EDGE in the 247Composite.

5* CB Daylen Everette (6'1, 185) #29 overall, #6 CB in the 247Composite.

Bye bye, Clemson? Is this the start of their program beginning to fade to black?

[FearlessF]

they started to fade last September

probably one reason Veneables decided to make the leap to HC finally

Maybe, it was a great luxury for them to be able to hang onto a great defensive coordinator for so long. So replacing him will be a big job - I know they were competition for Knowles.

Jeebis one season does not a juggernaut make and Haskins is a SR.I'd be concerned with revenge,home field and bombs away

4* WR Kaleb Webb (6'2, 185) of Georgia commits to Tennessee over Michigan. Webb is rated as the #313 player in the nation and #48 WR in the 247Composite. He's been shooting up the rankings boards and had offers fly in during the past month or so. 

Tennessee has beat Michigan head to head for number of kids the past few classes. Still blows my mind every time a kid willingly picks Tennessee over Michigan when they are the final 2 teams.

Michigan getting a run of CRYSTAL BALLZZZ for 4* WR Darrius Clemons (6'3, 205) of Oregon and 4* DL Derrick Moore (6'4, 250) of Maryland. Both just took their final official visits this last weekend, and will be signing early this Weds.

Moore is rated as the #79 player overall and #12 DL in the nation in the 247Composite and Clemons is rated as the #131 player overall and the #19 WR in the nation. Michigan getting both this late would be very nice, and only reason they are in this position is because of the crazy coaching carousel. Moore was all set to go to Oklahoma and Clemons was heavily leaning to Oregon.

Clemons is from Oregon, but grew up in East Lansing, MI until moving out west at a young age and he was very close with Michigan freshman WR Andrel Anthony growing up, and the two have remained very close. This has been an ace up Michigan's sleeve which may have paid off. Clemons is exceptionally fast for someone his size- ran a laser-timed verified legit 4.37 at one of the Nike Opening camps checking in at just under 6'3 and just north of 200 pounds. Big kid and very fast. Michigan WR class in desperate need because outside of 4* WR Tyler Morris (#115 overall, #14 WR in 247Composite) they have whiffed on literally every other WR target.

We'll find out where these guys and everyone else going in less than 48 hours. Interesting times ahead of us.

Nebraska added another defensive back on Tuesday, the second in as many days, as Hutchinson Community College defender DeShon Singleton announced for the Huskers over other finalists Kansas and Kansas State.

Singleton, who announced the decision on Twitter, had just spent the last week on official visits to Lincoln and Manhattan, where he took in the sites and heard the pitches from Kansas State and Nebraska.

The 6-foot-3, 200-pound Singleton wrapped up his freshman season at Hutchinson, appearing in nine games and making 21 tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss, intercepting two passes and breaking up two passes. The Louisiana native is a full qualifier and is looking to enroll at his next destination in January. He'll have four years for three seasons of eligibility.

Michigan commit 4* Edge rusher Kevonte Henry of California announces he's not signing tomorrow. He's fresh off a visit to Washington, where former Michigan recruiting co-ordinator Courtney Morgan has gone to re-join Kalen DeBoer who Morgan worked for in the past.

Michigan might actually lose a kid to Washington because of a recruiting co-ordinator. A kid that plays edge rusher- when Michigan put an edge rusher in the 1st round in the 2021 Draft in Kwity Paye and is about to put two edge rushers in the first round in 2022- oh yeah one of said edge rushers finished 2nd in the Heisman Trophy and has been the unquestioned leader of team that is making a playoff run. And they might lose this edge rusher Henry kid to Washington. Because of a recruiting co-ordinator. I've freaking heard it all now.

Lots of that happens now.

UW dismissed Jalen Berger for not being a UW guy. Except he was a UW guy in 2020. Then he wasn't.

Transfers to MSU. Guess who is now the recruiting coordinator at MSU?

makes no sense lol. recruiting co-ordinators literally just help coaches with their recruiting boards/schedules. they don't coach these kids and never will.

Maybe he wants to stay on the coast where he can still get home to play the Cali teams.Or Washington is reloading or he likes his position coach not sure why he'd go there over Michigan  for development or a shot at Sunday's
