Thought he did a really nice job, especially given that he's not been following Iowa closely. He's forgiven then for not realizing Texas Safety Anthony Gair and Texas Safety Anthony Morgan are the same person.
I really thought he captured the gist of the class. It's not star filled but probably typically an underrated class. Really interested to see Fleming, possibly Lile, Mabin, Shaw and Wilson compete for open WR spots. I've heard we need speed there....
Some interesting side-notes that he mentions...Laron Taylor looking like he might get an offer from UM and he probably would have if RR(he preferred smaller, faster LB's) had still been there.
"And I don't mean to sound like a broken record, but I have no idea how FL WR Greg Mabin didn't get more looks from area programs. I don't know if there's some underlying, lingering issue about Mabin that I just haven't read or something, but the guy looks like at least a four star. Although he comes from a lowly scouted school, he's still in the backyards of some of the biggest programs in the Southeast".
"Cass Tech S Ruben Lile is another kid that flirted with a Michigan offer, and might have landed one had Michigan struck out on the likes of Jarrod Wilson".
"IL CB Maurice Fleming is a smart kid who played QB in high school, but doesn't seem to have the suddenness to break a play on defense".
I'm probably more optimistic about Fleming than he is, and him at least starting off at a relatively thin WR position makes me believe the coaches think he has the talent to see the field early. Not a guy they think will sit on the bench for three years biding his time.
