The Future of Big 10 Offensive Domination?
Well, schools have started having their junior days, which means we can finally kick off the 2010 recruiting season. I am sure it's be a long, lonely five days without recruiting info for all of you, but fear not, unlike the Soprano's Signing Day always comes back for another season.
So, while Texas may have signed 7 players today including a bunch of D line studs, Michigan getting a verbal commitment from Ohio WR Jerald Robinson actually caught my eye. This morning. What is surprising is that this is already the third wide out to commit Michigan in 2010, after they brought in three in 2009. For a team that seems to be based on running the ball under Coach RichRod, this seems to be a lot of wide outs on the roster. Thankfully, I also game across this great article on a Michigan message board.
Basically, the article says the RichRod is trying to re-define his offense at Michigan. Now that he is at a school that can recruit top notch talent across the depth chart on offense, unlike WVU where he could only rely on one Pat White or Steve Slaton per class, he is trying to develop a much more balanced offense. This means he needs a lot of WR dept to run constant 4 WR sets. While this is just one fan's well-written opinion, the thought of Ann Arbor having an offense as daunting as Florida's or USC's is enough to make this Michigan fan finally let go of the image of Henne-to-Manningham.
