Recruiting Update: July 23, 2012

Florida defensive tackle Maquedius Bain decommitted from the Seminoles
ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2013
Fort Lauderdale (FL) University School defensive tackle Maquedius Bain decommitted from Florida State.  This comes as no surprise, since Bain has been looking around for months.  Michigan is not expected to be in the running for another defensive tackle as long as the current recruiting class remains intact, so this likely has no impact on Michigan.

OFF THE BOARD
Upper Marlboro (MD) Frederick Douglass wide receiver Paul Harris committed to Tennessee.  A reported top two of Tennessee and USC was released shortly before his decision, but he claimed those two schools didn't have an advantage over the other three schools in his top five.  Then he picked the Volunteers, anyway.

Lakeland (FL) Kathleen wide receiver/defensive back Javon Harrison, a 2014 prospect, committed to Virginia Tech.  Michigan was recruiting him as a wide receiver, but it seems the Hokies plan to use him at safety.

Chandler (AZ) Hamilton offensive tackle Casey Tucker, a 2014 prospect, committed to USC.  Tucker is the teammate of class of 2013 cornerback Cole Luke, who holds a Michigan offer but is unlikely to be a part of the class.

Cordova (TN) St. Benedict running back Jordan Wilkins committed to Auburn.  He almost committed to the Tigers when he visited a couple months ago, but held off long enough to get up the hopes of a couple other teams.  He then visited Michigan at the end of June, but he wasn't very impressed by Michigan's lack of $180,000 handshakes.  I wrote up a scouting report on Wilkins a couple months ago.  Unless Michigan offers any more running backs, it looks like all the eggs are in the Derrick Green basket.

  1. USC just took another DB in their small class so its looking like a Michigan Vanderbilt race for McQuay.
