Incoming: Matt Godin

Another day...another top recruit. The 2012 recruiting board lives here.

Rivals: NR DT
Scout: ★★★ #39 DE
ESPN: NR DT
24/7: ★★★★ #11 SDE

Okay, it's now safe to say that Hoke and Mattison can recruit insanely well. First of all, they are dominating the state of Michigan, and making a dent in Ohio as well. If you look at the size of these defensive players, including Godin who stands 6-6, 265, there's clearly a difference in what Rodriguez/Robinson thought was big enough for the B1G, and what Hoke/Mattison think is big enough. I think I'm with Hoke so far.

The recruiting sites disagree which position Matt plays, but the ones with ratings list him as a DE...so that's what we do as well. This kid is a junior in HS and he already looks like JJ Watt. This is a very nice pick up for Michigan. I think it clearly shows that the time is now to commit to Michigan if you're a standout defensive player in the midwest. I don't know how many more DE/LB spots are left on the recruiting board. But I think Hoke is doing his best to make this team bigger and tougher as fast as he can.

Other Offers:
BC, Buffalo, Cincy, Duke, Illinois, Sparty, Mizzou, Syracuse, Vandy, Wisconsin. No offers, but there was interest from Oregon and Penn State.
