We all know how Texas loves it's high school football. Today Michigan got a 6'3 185 pound QB from Arlington, Texas in Russell Bellomy. Russell is a 3 star prospect (to Scouts) with offers from Purdue, Boise State, Michigan State, Colorado, Minnesota, South Florida and others.
Russell was on a mid-week visit to Ann Arbor and it seems the Wolverines made a big impression on the young man and he committed to the 2011 class. With only two scholarship QB's on the roster, Michigan needed a QB in this class and they picked Russell. He has been committed to Purdue for sometime, so I'm sure Danny Hope "love" for Michigan will continue to grow.
I had never heard of Russell before this week but I am impressed how athletic he is. Check out the tape for yourself. He throws very well on the run outside the pocket.
Stayed tuned I believe I will have information on another commit in an hour or so.
