2022 Worthless Recruiting Thread

Rutgers gets a commitment from 4 star linebacker Anthony Johnson out of Philadelphia

Think Schiano would switch places with the VOLS now?

Schiano would’ve easily been the best coach the Vols had since Fulmer was in his heyday like 22 years ago. 

Vols fans deserve everything they are getting right now.

Yup turning him down is one thing Tar/Feathering unfairly and for all to see and hear was a dick move

4* CB Jaeden Gould (6'2, 190) of New Jersey - the #141 player overall in the nation, #16 CB, and #2 player in the state of New Jersey according to the 247Composite- cuts his list to a top 6 of Rutgers, Clemson, USC, Notre Dame, Penn State, and Michigan. Michigan is presumed to be the favorite. 

5* in-state CB Will Johnson is set to announce this Sunday. Another in-stater 4* DB Dillon Tatum (5'11, 190) - the #249 player and #13 ATH in the nation according to the 247Composite- is expected to make a decision soon as well, with Michigan believed to be the favorite.

Michigan already has a pair of 4* DB commits in the 2022 class, with Taylor Groves (6'2, 175) - the #245 player and #16 Safety in the nation- and Kody Jones (6', 180)- the #282 player and #16 ATH - already committed.

Could be a whale of a DB class, even after missing out on 5* Domani Jackson. Still holding out hope there for a flip. Especially if Michigan bounces back and 'SC takes a dip.

So which one of the DB's will hit the transfer portal first?  obviously playing time will be the reason

No kidding.  Getting commits out of HS has never been more meaningless.

4 star receiver Kyion Graves commits to the Buckeyes out of Arizona

5* CB Will Johnson commits to Michigan. If they flip 5* CB Domani Jackson....wowzers.

[MrNubbz]

According to 247 and pretty much everyone else he's committed to USC - stop getting greedy

Only shot that Michigan has at a flip is that they just landed Will Johnson added to the fact that Jackson grew up a huge Michigan fan and has said many times it's his "dream school". Jackson and Will Johnson struck up a real friendship a couple years ago and talk to each other all the time and had planned to play together in college. When Johnson went out to Cali to visit USC he stayed at Jackson's house.

Jackson's dad grew up a huge Michigan fan and is from Youngstown, OH and had become tight with Zordich due to the Youngstown connection. When Michigan fired Zordich, pretty much killed Michigan chances at the time and the kid decided he was done with the process and ready to commit- so 'SC it was. 

Michigan will have to actually rebound and have a good season- but imo if they don't absolutely suck in 2021 like they did in 2020- they'll have a shot at a flip of Jackson. 

And yup, you bet I'm greedy. Michigan CB's were atrocious in 2020. Will Johnson and Domani Jackson are plug and play Day One starters and both could've started at Michigan in 2020 as HS Jr's and been better players than the trash Michigan put out there at CB in 2020.

UW has only a single commit for 2022. He's an in-state QB. The helmets are crawling all over the state now, salivating over the top-ranked players. Might be tough to keep them when schools like OSU, Clemson and Bama are coming in.

Ya but the alumni are backing up trucks of cheese curds - who can resist that?

The extended recruiting dead period is killing all of the non-elite helmets.  A Clemson offer, an OSU offer, etc..., stands on its own merits.  If kids can't get on campus, meet the coaches, attend the camps, it's going to be tough for an Iowa, a Wisconsin, an MSU, etc, to get commits.

A lot of the write ups on MSU targets all say something to the effect of the kid wants to get on campus this summer.  You get an Alabama offer?  You jump on it, if interested.  If you want to "see the campus", they'll move on without you.

[847badgerfan]

Yep. That's what I'm seeing.

Thankfully the in-state kids are waiting. June has been good for UW in the past. Need June to happen this year.
