Signing day

Yesterday was signing day in college football.

Washington and Michigan both took in highly rated classes of recruits.

Michigan dipped into the market segment consisting of young scholar-athletes charged with (but not convicted of!) multiple felonies in high school. This should help keep up the flow of police-blotter related stories out of south campus here in Ann Arbor.

You can view the scout.com rankings here courtesy of the Dawgman. They have UW just above Michigan but some of the other rankings I looked at had the reverse order (and some had both down in the lower teens or upper 20s rather than the upper teens).

It would be an entertaining exercise to try and explain all this to a European.
