Re: Class of 2016 - Durty Nelly - 02-10-2015

This recent article points to him, Thomas, Schaffer, being stronger on the defensive side.  Note the positive mention of Stanford at the end.

Would be great to beat out Oregon and others for him.  Could be another Henry Anderson type DE.

I don't think any of those four leaving would be an indictment of Shaw or his staff.  Barring disaster Crower won't get any playing time this year and Young is in a very deep backfield.

Agreed, the conclusion that they dislike Shaw completely ignores a playing time component. I do not want to see any of these young men go to another school to finish their college careers having followed most of them since their days in high school, but they are doing what they feel is best for both their education and chance to see the playing field.

Rheiner is a backup center who hasn't received meaningful snaps and may fall to a third string position this coming season.

Lyons lost plenty of playing time to Harris this year and with very talented redshirt frosh and true sophomores coming into the picture, play time may become more scarce. Matriculating to Michigan with some familiar staff doesn't seem like a bad move for him.

Crower probably sees that he will no longer be the clear #2 this coming season with Burns or Chryst taking the position.

Young sees even less snaps with Wright becoming the preferred powerback and Sanders/McCaffrey becoming the preferred dynamic backs.

Good luck to all of them regardless of whether they choose to leave or not.

As far as Crower is concerned, I would hope the only time he sees the field is if Hogan gets hurt.  Burns/Chryst should most certainly get the garbage time reps imo.

Shaw has said as much.  He basically said that next year, we would see the next Stanford QB being groomed to take the reins.  I assume this means they will get garbage time reps, and also possibly special "package" plays, as Hogan did before he was eased into the starting position.

Getting back to the subject at hand, the DL pool finally looks pretty good in 2016 after some dry years.
Rand, Okonya, and Peek all seem extremely interested in Stanford.
Has anyone heard whether Connor Murphy has legitimate interest in Stanford (or are we just making assumptions based on the fact his brother attended)? 
Those 4 could make a very good (and much needed) DL class.

The OL prospects are not as clear to me.  Lots of offers out there, but I haven't read that any of the guys with offers have specific interest in Stanford or even that they highly prioritize academics.  Since Tucker didn't take a redshirt, it would be nice to get another future LT in the pipeline.  Hall and Dreyer seem more suited to RT.

We're in play for Rashan Gary who's the #1 player in the next class. Has the size of a DT and the athleticism of a DE.

Gary and Costello would certainly lay the foundation for a nice NSD 2016.


Re: Class of 2016 - OutsiderFan - 02-11-2015

Is Gary "willing to do the work to get in" interested or "using the Stanford offer to make me look smart" interested, like Rasheem Green, Iman Marshll, Christian Kirk, etc.?  These are the elite prospects with football factory offers who have no intention of doing all the extra work to get into Stanford and put Stanford in their Top 10 just for appearances sake.

Not to be confrontational, but do you have any reason to doubt his willingness/ability to do Stanford-level work?  I don't know anything about the kid's academics aside from on off-the-cuff remark by his coach a year ago indicating that he had a 3.7 GPA.

He seems to value academics.  Here is an article about him.

Everyone is after him, so he would be difficult to sign.

Gary's high school coach is now on Harbaugh's staff.  Two of his high school teammates (one being Jabril Peppers) are also in Ann Arbor.

Great article.  Thanks for positing.  Wish I could upvote your post.

Sounds like a Stanford guy to me:
Quote:"Gary also carries a 3.85 GPA, including all As on his last report card."
“I just know that the private school education is harder and I just want to get a harder education,” Gary said. “I’m waiting for the first day of school so I can hit it hard.”

Sounds like he has a Stanford mom:
Quote:“One thing my mom really pressed was studying on me,” Gary said. “When I get in the house from football practice it’s always been take a shower, eat, study and get to sleep. I’m not allowed to bring a C home, or I’m not allowed to play sports. I keep that in the back of my head. Plus I don’t want to let my mom down because that’s what she expects from me.”

And this has to work in our favor.  A chance to go to the official visit day...
Quote:"Alabama is the 247Sports Crystal Ball favorite to land Gary. With that being said, Gary denies a leader at this point in the recruiting process, and thinks it could take him until National Signing Day 2016 to make a college decision."

THe MBB coach at Oregon State signed his son and hired a Coach then signed his outstanding son.  Happens often.

I wouldn't lump Green in with Marshall and Kirk. He actually visited and seems like he did put in the work. That is probably why he was so disappointed when he was told to retake the SAT/ACT.

Well, points for trying, he almost got the name of the university right. And the nickname.

He got a few tweets correcting him and tweeted "oops".  :D

That's a new one....not showering at school after practise.
