Recruiting Update: August 6, 2012

I just like this picture, so I'm posting it again in a slow news week.
There hasn't been much news for Michigan since the BBQ at the Big House.  There haven't been many new offers for 2014, except for Conor Sheehy.  It seems like the coaches want to evaluate the first few games of most kids' junior seasons before offering them.

OFF THE BOARD
Geismar (LA) Dutchtown wide receiver Shelby Christy committed to Mississippi State.  Christy received a Michigan offer relatively recently compared to most of Michigan's targets at the position, but there was never much buzz about him being interested in the Wolverines.

Louisville (KY) Trinity cornerback Ryan White changed his commitment from Louisville to Vanderbilt.  Trinity also boasts defensive end Jason Hatcher (USC) and wide receiver James Quick (undecided), both of whom were offered by Michigan.  White said academics was the main reason for the switch.

WEEKEND VISITOR
Monona Grove (WI) Monona Grove offensive guard Jaden Gault, a 2014 prospect, visited Michigan on Sunday.  He's 6'6" and 281 lbs. with offers from Michigan State, Nebraska, and Wisconsin.  He reminds me a little bit of Mark Huyge, although Huyge was a MAC-level prospect outside of his offer from Michigan.


Chicago (IL) Marist tight end Nic Weishar, a 2014 prospect, visited campus.  He's a 6'5", 200-pounder with offers from Illinois, Iowa, Michigan, Notre Dame, and Wisconsin, among others.  As a sophomore in 2011, he had 77 receptions for 1,160 yards and 13 touchdowns.
