Potential Attrition

Sheridyn Fisher . . . just because.

As Michigan’s 2012 recruiting class comes closer and closer to filling up, more and more people – including me – seem interested in just how big the class will be.  The maximum number of players any Big Ten team can sign in February is 28.  Head coach Brady Hoke stated previously that he expected the class to grow to 26.

Right now the Wolverines have 22 or 23 commits, depending on whether Kentucky safety Jeremy Clark counts for this class or the next one.  Aside from the fourth year juniors who haven’t seen much playing time this season (Michael Cox, Terrence Robinson, Elliott Mealer, etc.), there are a couple other underclassmen that could very well depart in the offseason.

It would be somewhat irresponsible for me to post specific names here, but I’ve received a couple questions in my inbox about who they might be and why.  If you take a long, hard look at Michigan’s roster and think about the youngsters who are glued to the bench, you can probably take an educated guess.

Don’t be surprised if Michigan signs 27 or 28 players in February.
