Michigan News: Week Until Signing Day and the Wolverines' Super Bowl Shuffle?

How would you like to be a Four-Star Defensive End with offers from many of the top programs in the country? Well, Sam Montgomery is that young man these days, and he is having to make some difficult decisions.

Late on Monday he cut his list down. "Even though Oregon has a lot to offer, he felt that it was not the place for him," Mrs. Montgomery said. He will visit Tennessee this weekend. Sam was planning a mid-week visit to The Ducks/NikeTown this week.

She said more cuts are coming. "We're going to do some serious soul searching," Mrs. Montgomery said. "It just hard to say goodbye. You get to like them as a person." Sam will also be hosting coaches from Tennessee, North Carolina, and LSU this week.

Don't forget the Wolverine Basketball team is playing OSU tonight in C-Bus. The game is an early tip at 6:30 and the Buckeyes are favored by 4.5. Bet on Sports

The Georgia Bulldogs are making a late charge for Je'Ron Stokes and are trying to get him to campus for an official this weekend. Tony Ball, the Bulldogs' WR coach, is recruiting Stokes and is working with OC Mike Bobo to see if they can get Je'Ron an offer/visit for this weekend.

On a funny side note: On Tuesday, he (Stokes) couldn’t call UGA until very late because Michigan coach Rich Rodriquez was at his Pennsylvania house for most of the evening.

With 2009 Recruiting closing down, it's time to focus on 2010 recruiting efforts. 2010 looks to be a good class for QB talent in the state of Michigan. Devin Gardner, a 6'4", 195 lbs. QB from Inkster, already has offers from Michigan, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Nebraska, and many others.

Just yesterday, Michigan offered Orchard Lake St. Mary's QB Robert Bolden, who also stands 6'4" and weighs 195. Robert isn't a secret either; he is sporting offers from Vandy, CMU, Nebraska, MSU, Northwestern, and Wisconsin.

Are you into Flight Stalking? Per the Mgoblog message board, it seems Coach Rod's plane last night went from Philadelphia to visit Je'Ron Stokes to Cleveland to maybe visit Marcus Hall. Check this link out and picture below.

MSU has thrown Andrew Conboy completely off the team and he has left school. Corey Tropp is done for the year and might not be asked back. Both kids were involved in the ugly incident at Yost Arena this past weekend.

Wolverine Super Bowl Shuffle: Alan Branch, former Wolverine DT and now a member of the Arizona Cardinals, won a rumba dancing contest at Super Bowl Media Day. The contest was organized by ET's Kevin Frazier, and Warren Sapp was a celebrity judge. "It means a lot," Branch was quoted as saying in Tampa Bay Online, regarding his dancing victory. "I came here with a good game plan." Super Bowl Betting
