Moved to Committed: 2009 MI DT William Campbell. Relief, joy, etc.
Removed: 2009 MN WR Bryce McNeal Clemson commit, 2009 MS DT Pernell McPhee, who signed his LOI with Mississippi State, and 2010 IL OL Christian Lombard, who committed to Notre Dame.
This weekend is expected to be a big one for recruiting. The Freep says:
West Monroe, La., defensive end Barkevious Mingo, an Army All-American; Greenwood, S.C., defensive end Sam Montgomery, an UnderArmour All-American; and Denard Robinson of Deerfield Beach, Fla., who Michigan is looking at for the quarterback…
Inkster wide receiver Cameron Gordon and offensive tackle Michael Schofield of Orland Park, Ill., are the only two Michigan commitments scheduled to officially visit for the Jan. 9 weekend. Three-star defensive end Bennie Logan of Coushatta, La., and three-star cornerback Demontre Hurst of Lancaster, Texas, are also scheduled to officially visit at that time…
Leesville, La., wide receiver Travante Stallworth (Auburn) and Lafayette, La., wide receiver Ricky Johnson (Arkansas) have scheduled official visits in Ann Arbor for the Jan. 9 weekend.
According to SoFlaFootball, Adrian Witty will also be in town:
“I’m going to Michigan on the 9th, Kansas State on the 16th, 17th, Florida on the 23rd, Middle Tennessee and FIU the following week,” said Witty.
And Sam Webb filled in a bit more a while back (caution: this is the oldest source, so it may be a bit out of date). He said on WTKA that Je’Ron Stokes will be in town as well, along with maybe Josh Hunter.
And that’s one full recruiting weekend. With no basketball game until Sunday morning, I’m curious as to what the recruits will spend their time doing. I wouldn’t be surprised if they went to a hockey game over the weekend, so if you’re interested in helping with the recruiting effort, get out and support the reigning CCHA champs, as well. Also of note: I’d assume the early-enrolling commits will be on hand for the recruiting visit, and it’s more likely that some of these guys have built up relationships with fellow members of the class of 2009. Will Tate Forcier, Big Will, and the gang be a valuable recruiting force for the rest of this class?
Look for another recruiting update later this week.

Is Marcus Hall visiting this weekend?
Scout has him listed as visiting 1/9.
Man am I looking forward to your post next week. Is Gallon not coming in this week?
The last I had heard on Hall (which is from the linked articles/podcasts), he was not visiting the 9th. I believe his visit was for the following weekend. Maybe that’s changed.
I believe Gallon will indeed be in, but I didn’t have a free article with that information,
I think Tate will fit very well in Michigans new system. He’s very quick, with a quick accurate release. They want/need to pick up another mobile QB before signing day to push Forcier & Threet. I’d say we’re one hit away from Threet/Sheridan massacre & another 3 win season. Who’s their best options?
Any height added to the depth chart in the wide out department?
