Welcome

Since this is my first venture into this whole blogging thing, I think I'll start with something I care about.  Now when I say care I mean I care about WAY too much.  More than a normal human should care about anything that isn't a direct family member.  But then again, I consider this part of my family.  University of  Michigan Football.  No this isn't going to be another Michigan blog.  There's plenty of those out there.  If that's what your looking for, go to MGoBlog because there isn't a better site out there for you.  There will be plenty of my thoughts on Michigan sports (including professional sports from time to time) but that's not the purpose of this.  I don't know what the purpose of this actually is, but who cares anyway?

Recruiting for the class of 2012 is on my mind.  I do not consider myself a recruiting guru.  If that's what you're looking for follow TomVH or DGDestroys on twitter.  I do know a little about football though, so this isn't completely off the wall.  This is my kinda wishlist for the upcoming Michigan recruiting class.  I say kinda because, of course, I would love to have Dorial Green-Beckham but I don't think he's coming to Michigan.  This is also not a list of guys I think are going to Michigan necessarily either.  It's kinda a combination of guys I like, guys that have awesome names, guys that Michigan has a good/decent shot at that...you know what, this is my list so if you don't like it too damn bad.

If you would like to see a full list of all prospects that Michigan has offered go here.  DGDestroys keeps that up to date and usually has a nightly "quick hitters" post to cover the news of the day.  Each kid also is linked to his film which I find particularly helpful.

Okay, I'm working on my own assumption that there will be 20 spots to fill in this class.  We won't know the real amount until all the attrition and such is over but it should be somewhere around there.  With the midwest up talentwise this year, a bigger class would certainly be a good thing.
