Despite picking up a commitment last night, the Michigan coaching staff has no time to rest. Recruiting may be in focus again this weekend, as the Wolverines host their senior summer camp on Sunday. While the past Michigan regime would use camp as its primary pre-season recruiting effort, Rodriguez and Co. have already secured 9 commitments for 2009.
At this sort of event, there are usually several players who attend in hopes of gaining offers. Previously-offered prospects may attend such an event as a chance to take a campus visit, or get to know the coaching staff better. Committed recruits can also attend, in hopes of comparing their skills to other attendees or swaying top prospects in attendance.
Several in-state or regional prospects will likely attend seeking offers, such as Zach Matthias and Youngstown Liberty’s Julius Ferrell. Among offered prospects, Dennis Thames is a confirmed attendee (info in header).
Michigan’s summer camps won’t end this weekend, however. The Rich Rodriguez Michigan Football Camp takes place the 15th-19th, followed immediately by the 7-on-7 passing camp on the 20th and 21st. The Michigan Kicking Camp takes place June 29th-30th.

Can you give your opinion on a couple things:
1. why RR would offer Cornelius Jones? http://www.freep.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080606/SPORTS06/80606108/1054
2. Rumor has it that that Jeremy Gallon has grades troubles and thats why some bigger schools passed on him. Any truth to that?
Also is there any video of gallon
