who the hell would want to go to coal miner's hell inn WV to play? ..but he got players out of Louisiana, Alabama, Florida, etc. out of the SEC's backyard


The Big 10 isn't great, but it's still > Big East. Who was his main comp there? He didn't have to deal with any Ohio St's or Penn St's. RR and Michigan just aren't a good fit.

i dnt know, you got to have it, but saying he is a 5 star deosnt mean anything to me. what makes him better than davenport? an example is morris claiborne is going be a good player in my opinion but no one ever talks about him and he is not a 5 star.

look, if he could lure kids to fricking WV to run his system, he sure as hell can get them to a tradional power like Michigan... hell, if Lloyd Carr could get kids from Louisiana, etc., Rich Rod sure as hell can

I don't know if he is better, but he looks much quicker to me than Davenport on film.

Both are very powerful

Davenport maybe a better run stopper?
Campbell mabye a better all around DT?

I just see no reason why an OSU or PSU who keep reeling in great class after great class should be worried about a guy who hasn't proven he can win in the Big 10 yet.

Id say we have the inside track for sure now

I will remind everyone once again he went to the same highschool as Joe Barksdale (Cass Tech). He knows Joe and his brother Dalton.

A couple things:

1) IMO Rich Rodriguez will make Michigan an elite, powerhouse program within 3 years.

2) This isn't my opinion - Will Campbell will sign with Michigan.

I don't post here very often and when I do I never post rumors and never post anything negative about LSU. I respect your coach and program.

That being said Will Campbell to Michigan is a done deal.

I actually kind of am.

I think it does make your conference look better when both OSU and UM are playing well...

penn state's recruiting is not exactly spectacular

tOSU is the only team really bringing in top talent annually in the Big 10

as a matter of fact, Michigan currently has the #8 recruiting class... PSU is 18th..according to Rivals

Michigan was 10th last year in Rich Rod's first class... PSU was not in the Top 25..

try again

I have read that the Michigan Mods think Campbell already sent in his papers to Michigan, but I suppose it's unconfirmed.

Now with that said, His interview is pretty telling

he said yes, he eliminated Michigan

he 3 choices are LSU, UF, and Miami

and he promised to make a decision during the AA game..

So I take his word over any yahoo claiming they know the real story..

is the kid really going to toy with Rivals and all 4 schools?

he doesn't seem like an attention hound to me

Hey, idiot, Campbell was just quoted as saying that Michigan is no longer on his list. I think he knows more about where he's going than you do.

According to Scout (who I like better), PSU is ranked higher, FWIW. Either way, they're still no where near OSU.

One UM backer said WC was just playing a joke. The interview didnt sound like a joke and if it was he will surely lose face in the future.
If he signs with UM you will be taken seriously on every post.
If he signs elsewhere you may as well post on the OT, no one here will take you seriously again ..

Yep, what the source?... because the rest of your post is filled with Michigan fanhood and no real facts..Nothing but wishful hope that RR can get himself out of this nightmare
