whitesoxfan101 Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Jan 27, 2006 -> 06:13 PM) Britt James Wilkins Don't forget Hagans, one of the best players from Wisky, Morgan out of Ohio. I think the chance to get Britt is why a few days ago the kid from Miami changed his commitment to UCF. This WR class is one of the best incoming in the nation. Hopefully Juice and these WR's get a chance to play right away and take their lumps early on, they could be scary in a couple years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 4 star DB Chris Duvalt from Florida and 4 star OL Ramone Johnson of Morgan Park both have Illinois in their top 2 as well, and 3 star DB Vontae Davis of Maryland is still a possibility. Hopefully we can land at least 1 of those guys.....I think Ray Ray is going to end up in Knoxville, but hopefully I'm wrong and/or we can land Duvalt or Davis as another DB, Lord knows we need them.

Rex Hudler Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 Not sure if this has been posted, but Michigan gets a commit from 5-star offensive lineman Stephen Schilling Thursday. Scout.com rates him as the 3rd best OL in the country and Rivals.com rates him as the 2nd best offensive guard in the country. After losing out on Sam Young, this is a great grab for the Wolverines! Schilling is Michigan's 5th 5-Star commitment this year, the 2nd 5-Star offensive lineman. Schilling Commits to Michigan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Ramone Johnson has verballed to Tennessee, per rivals. Not a surprise, but still sucks.

WHarris1 Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 (edited) Excellent. 4 star, 25th corner in the Nation per Rivals. 4.38 40 Also things look good for Vonate, keep your fingers crossed. Edited January 29, 2006 by WHarris1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 (edited) Vontae has cut his list to 2 schools. I'm not sure who they are, but I do know one of them is Illinois, and the other isn't Maryland. Plus, the same people who said Ray Ray was going to Tennessee are saying Illinois has Vontae on lockdown. Hopefully we get Vontae to reach 29, and then we get that "mystery guy" I was asking for to get to 30, which I think is the maximum we can have. EDIT: Vontae is down to Illinois and Michigan State. I guess he wants to play in the Big Ten. Edited January 29, 2006 by whitesoxfan101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan101 Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Top player in D.C. down to two With just a few days to go before Signing Day, the top player in the District of Columbia has cut his list of favorites in half to two schools. Who is Washington (D.C.) Dunbar cornerback Vontae Davis considering and when does he plan to make an announcement? "I'm down to Michigan State and Illinois," the three-star prospect said. "I'm planning to make my decision on Signing Day. I've been leaning toward the Big Ten a little more because of the atmosphere in that conference, and I really can see myself playing there and accomplishing a lot." Free info from Rivals. I really hope we get this guy, I'm surprised he eliminated Maryland, as he is related (brother I think, but I know for sure he's related to) Vernon Davis, Maryland TE and soon to be 1st round pick.
