Michigan Tuesday: 2012 Recruiting Offers Continue

Michigan continues to recruit the 2012 class hard and heavy now that the 2011 class is complete. Here is some new information.

• Check out this 2012 Michigan offer map from an Mgoblog reader. 

• Michigan offered another Ohio DE this time: Se'von Pittman. Se'von is 6'4" and 225 pounds. He has Alabama and Ohio State offers already. The Buckeyes are looking good for him right now.

• Michigan offers highly-rated Arizona OL Andrus Peat, who is 6'6" and 270 pounds. He is a big-time prospect with 25 offers right now.

Other football news:

• ND QB Nate Montana has transferred to Montana. We will always have early September 2010, Nate. Thank you so much. 

• Urban Meyer basically calls out college football and how bad it's gotten the last five years: “What I’ve seen the last five years is a complete turn in the integrity of the college coaching profession. It’s completely turned the other way. Right now, it’s not good because the risk-reward is ‘have at it, do what you’ve got to do get the great player, go win games and at the end of the day we’ll find out what happens down the road...'" We always knew that NCAA basketball recruiting was a very dirty business, and now it seems college football might be just as dirty. I can tell you there were thousands of rumors about USC back under Pete Carroll. The Reggie Bush stuff was just a small sample of what went on there. Let's hope that Brady Hoke and staff play by the rules.

• Speaking of Cam Newton, he just signed a $1M a year deal with Under Armour. No word if the deal was done "under the table."

• Former Rutgers QB Tom Savage will visit Arizona today, which is his first visit since he decided to transfer. There was some Internet buzz that Michigan might be interested in Tom, but that was before Michigan locked up Texas QB Russell Bellomy.

• John Beilein is recruiting another former NBA player's son, specifically 6'7" forward Larry Nance, Jr. He is averaging 18 points and 10 boards a game. Larry has really picked up his game and has grown nearly six inches in the last two years. He is a 2011 recruit.
