Wolverine Wednesday: QuarterBack To The Future

One of the positives about Coach Hoke when he got hired was his reputation of being a very good recruiter.  Then he goes and hires Greg Mattison from the Ravens, who Urban Meyer called "the best recruiter in the country".    You would think that is a good match, right?  The answer is YES, a very good match. 

Michigan has seemly gone for 0 to 10 commitments in the 2012 class in just a couple of weeks.  With all the commitments coming from Ohio or Michigan.  Poor MSU is wondering what happened down there in Ann Arbor?

Now comes the news, Michigan has received it's first 2013 commitment from mega instate QB Shane Morris.  Yes, a kid that hasn't even started his junior year of high school and is expected to be the best player in the State in the 2013 class, has said, "Coach, I want to be a Wolverine!".  Unbelievable!  

Shane is a 6'3 around 185 pounds and plays for De La Salle in Warren, Michigan.   He doesn't have any Star Ranking yet due to him being a 2013 prospect.   He does have about 7 Midwest D1 scholarship offers.  

Here is what ESPN has to say about this young man:  QB Shane Morris (Warren, Mich./De La Salle) was in a class of his own. The 6-1, 174-pounder has a sensational arm, great vision, moves his feet well and carries himself like a pro. Talent wise, he is far beyond his age group and already has top-notch abilities.

He seems to be a regular at summer camps/combines which means he will get some great advice on improving his QB skills.
