Not to my knowledge. I think he phrased that badly - that it was another offer for him in total.

Dantonio says MSU still recruiting "DL, long outside LB. Every position. Looking at best players available." MSU has 17 committed players.

Glad he thinks that, because hes lost pretty much every top target in the state of MI and hasnt been able to land high quality out of state guys. But what else would he say?

Losing Hamler and Thomas were massive blows. Both were huge MSU leans before the season. Not going to land Oliver Martin, Simmons, or Irving Bey either.

If before the season someone said MSU wouldnt get DIB, Hamler or Thomas, the response would have been what an epic failure.

This reminds me of JLS...where we are now getting 'dimaond in the rough' players no one has ever heard about after striking out with the talent.

But not Dantonio "diamonds in the rough" like Cousins or Bell? Strange that a successful coach reminds you of a failed coach rather than himself.

With Peoples Jones now blue, it's safe to say our football program is going back into the shitter. I don't think I have ever witnessed a beat down in recruiting within Michigan in over 30 years. But, let's just keep landing those recruits that nobody else wants and coach them up baby! The under the radar dudes after Michigan, OSU completely sweep up both states with the best kids. This fucking sucks.

Careful, you might trigger Muffman. He fully supports Dantonio's decision to keep the can't recruit/ can't game plan assistant coaches.

It fucking hurts. The past 10 years were a blast. Then coming off 3 big ten championships, rose and cotton bowl wins, and play off appearance and we can't do shit. How in the actual fuck can you not get recruits to come here after what I listed above?! Is that fucking real life?!

Meanwhile scum takes the seven top players in the state. That's laughable as I don't think that has ever fucking happened. OSU will get the number one class in the country and scum will be top 5.

Go ahead say myself or others are over reacting. Massive recruiting misses and keeping the same limp Dick staff is fucking devastating. Harbaugh is doing what we feared. Helping them win 10 games and cleaning up recruiting while we face plant

by **NigelUno** Fri Dec 16, 2016 9:02 am

Yeah...clearly the key to our success has been out-recruiting UM and OSU all these years.

Just for reference, what were our recruiting classes ranked that Dantonio turned into big ten champs and rosebowl, cotton and playoff players?

Looks like he got lucky with Cook and Conklin.

If you want to hope coach D can continue to defy odds then ok. Look st our secondary. Went from nationally elite to bottom barrel in big ten. Where's the coaching to coach em up like he did with Wayne's and Dennard?

I'm saying having a zero star and low 3 star turn out that good is rare and isn't likely to be replicated.

Conklin is the only good tackle Dantonio has had in 10 years. Why is that?

I was just thinking if this shit tweaks at many of us who really don't follow the stuff, and only watch the games on Saturday, just think of the red ass Dantonio. How pissed do you think he is. I hope he uses it, I'm betting he will.

Did scUM offer Bell, Wayne's, Dennard, Conklin, Allen, Cook, Fowler, Calhoun, or Bullough? You know, those rarities?
