Might lose Tosh Lupoi as well, unless Saban is willing to bump him to DC.

Yeah their staff is getting raided. Locksley was rumored to be possibly going to FSU but with Daboll leaving perhaps he takes over as OC.

They tried getting Chris Patridge from Michigan to be the LB/Co-DC but it seems like he’s getting outright DC offers elsewhere otherwise he’ll stay in Michigan. If Michigan losses him they’re screwed. He’s really the only reason for any of their recruiting success at this point.

Patridge stayed on at Michigan with a new contract. Saban apparently is going after Chip Long as his replacement OC from Notre Dame. Kelly lost his DC already this offseason in Mike Elko to Texas A&M.

Ferrell, Bryant, Wilkins, Lawrence, Thomas, Henry, and Belk. Jesus.

Good for Clemson & Dabo but it really doesn’t make sense with all those guys coming back turning down chances to be drafted in the first couple of rounds.

There’s too much information out there now a days to know you’re on a running clock not just from a health/ability standpoint but you have set rookie deals now too.

Damien Harris staying at Alabama was another head scratcher. No point in staying all four years as a RB when you’re likely to get selected somewhere in the the mid rounds.

Yep. Go get paid. These kids are either going against advice or asking the wrong people.

The final signing day is in about a week. Wednesday February 7th to be exact.

I think some of these kids who would be B or C caliber prospects made a mistake by signing early. The ones that didn’t have seen their stock rise these past few months as bigger teams are looking to fill out their class.

The report right now is he’s getting an interview but I’d be surprised if Schiano isn’t coaching the Pats as their DC next year given the connections between him & Belichick.

And Michigan losses their only consensus top 100 player in their class to Georgia. :laugh:

Schefter is saying the Colts are going to circle back on Rhule.
He was committed to Harbaugh for 8 months too, and Kirby only really started to push on Reese after they knew they'd have a spot for him. Michigan is getting their ass handed to them by the big boys.

Yeah Harbaugh got smacked in the mouth both on & off the field this year. I don’t think he’ll get fired or anything as I think he’s basically at Michigan as long as he wants to be. But next year is a put up or shut up year for him as he’s got no buzz going right now. If he has another rough year I think he could be back in the NFL.

They have what’s probably going to be considered the toughest schedule in the country going into next year which doesn’t help matters either. On top of playing Ohio State, Penn State, & Michigan State from their division they got Notre Dame out of conference game & Wisconsin as a crossover conference game.
