Yeah I'm pretty disappointed about Price not liking it here. I follow him on Twitter, he seems like a helluva good dude as well.

That's what I've heard too.

TL;DR - David Price is open to stay, UofM is getting more recruits.

Not much going on in Sports right now #DeflateGate

Just read this today about Price and he says he's "open" to staying in the D for a contract extension. :D

In other news, Harbaugh is trying to flip a few different recruits and I think he might have gotten us another QB. Kid is huge 6'7" and like 230lbs from New Mexico. He's currently commited, or was, to Texas. He changed that on his twitter and then followed the entire UofM staff on twitter. So, things are looking really good there.

Another, a DE commited to Wisconsin, is taking a visit with real potential. Once Wisconsin's coach bolted, things opened up. A potential Wisconsin commit, an OL is somewhat on the radar, but I haven't heard anything else.

And, I hear that we are still in on Mike Weber, RB from Cass tech. He's commited to Ohio right now, but there's rumblings. Ever since they picked up some 5* RB, I hear he isn't to kean on that. If we can get this kid, it would be really exciting. Short of Ty Isaac, Weber would probably be the #1 guy, or really close to the top in terms of depth.

It's looking like we're getting Ty Wheatley's kid, that seems like a non secret. I know there's a few TE's out there we're looking into. A 4-5*, depending on what site, guy named Clark. He was commited to Hoke, and now it's down to us or ucla. We'll see what happens there. This class might turn out half way decent in the end.

More are out there, not sure how many will commit. I see the staff posting about recruiting on twitter all the time, Jay Harbaugh had a flat tire today he posted about. Doh!

If we can get a QB in this program that can run things, we'll be all set. Alex Malzone is looking really good, local kid from Brother Rice. One knock on him is he's only 6'2", but in college that doesn't always matter now does it? I was hoping we would get his top reciever, Grant Perry, but he seems pretty committed to Northwestern. Not sure if we even offered him. He has size and skills just like Jeremy Gallon did.

Not trying to make this a Wolverine thread, I just know a few of you are big fans and alumni. Either way. Go Blue!

Man this thread seems to have died, or I killed it with all my recruiting talk. Grant Perry to commit? Iman Marshall possibly too? Clark is 50/50 between us and ucla. Jay Harbaugh said we got 2 more commits today, but didn't name, names.

We did get that QB I mentioned in the previous post. Huge deal. Now the QB battles should really give us a good one, between Shane Morris, Wilton Speiget, Malzone, and now Gentry. We are looking really good at that position.

Early word on JV that he's back and looking really good.

Not Local But Epic

Nice find that is a bad ass game!

Odd's that the lion s take an obscure player or injured long shot in the first round.....????? Forgot to add payer may be "under sized " but best athlete available....?

I'm gonna stick with having faith until they slap me in the face with that ol Detroit Lions Elite Defeatist Slap. Like POW wtf kind a pick was that...

Laken Tomlinson, G, Duke
Height: 6-3. Weight: 323.
Projected 40 Time: 5.18.
Projected Round (2015): 2-3.
4/27/15: Tomlinson blocked well for Duke in 2014. He is a strong run-blocker who has to improve his pass protection for the NFL. Sources have said that after a slow start to the season, Tomlinson was very good in the second half of the year. He also had a strong week at the Senior Bowl. Some teams have graded Tomlinson in the third round, but believe the organization that likes him enough to draft him might pull the trigger in Round 2.

8/27/14: Tomlinson is a gifted athlete with surprising agility and quickness for a big blocker. He carries his weight well and has some strength to him. Tomlinson has started all 25 games he's played in dating back to his freshman season in 2011. Tomlinson has been a two-time ACC All-Academic selection.

Tomlinson held his own and was impressive at times against Florida State in the ACC Championship Game. He has excellent recoverability. A defender may have a step or leverage on Tomlinson, but he has the strength and quickness to take it away. Tomlinson could continue to use some refinement, but he has upside and physicality to him.

Personal: Son of Audrey Wilson. Double major in evolutionary anthropology and psychology. Laken Tomlinson grew up in Jamaica and didn't start playing football until his high school years at Lane Tech in Chicago, Illinois.

Not gonna pretend I heard of him. Says 3rd rounder. Maybe the homie @tipz has?

^^^^Im reading this dude is smart as hell...double major wanted to be like a brain surgeon or something, now that's a change.


PS. Did I hear this right.....The guy on double secret probation for positive test results for cannabis at the combine.......drafted by Denver ?

@ohthatguy8 IDK seems like as I've watch the draft almost seems as if we had a plan and addressed some actual needs for once through the draft. First rounder i wasn't sold on till i read up him as a person and we probably need a guy like him around to off set some of the stupid our line got us into last year.
