Peoples-Jones posted this. If it all comes to fruition that would be 3-5* receivers, a 5* RB, and a 5* QB

4* 6 ft 6 WR to Bama.

this guy is an interesting player. Was a nobody and then went to a camp and ran a 4.38. Tape is bit underwhelming. Right now he is not a top 7 WR in Texas based on play, but damn is he a great piece of clay. So raw, but the athletic potential is through the roof. He has been mostly focused on baseball up until this point.

I still don't get the Tate Martell hype. Decent passing talent, but he's so small I'd never even CONSIDER taking him at a major university. Guys like him can't take the pounding.

I would be very surprised if Donovan Peoples-Jones chooses Ohio State over Michigan. His father, an orthopedic surgeon, is a graduate of Michigan, and Donovan has plans to follow in his dad's footsteps as a surgeon. In fact, Donovan is already working at the University of Michigan Hospital shadowing/sitting-in on surgical procedures.
Interesting Michigan Development With Donovan Peoples-Jones

But, ya never know.... Ohio State was the first school to offer a football scholarship to Donovan, and he has stated that the first offer is a special one. Plus it doesn't really matter where he gets his undergrad degree in the B1G, as all 14 B1G schools should properly prepare him academically for eventually getting accepted into Michigan's Medical School.

Going to Michigan. End of story.

4 * LB Willie Gay commits to Olé Miss.

Yeah, if OSU pulled that off and signed DPJ, I would be amazed. If Hoke were still coach, I could see it happening, but not now.

"Michigan will never land kids out of SEC country that have SEC offers" - every SEC coach in response to satellite camps.

Huh. I've never heard them say that. But if you posted it, it must be true.

Shhh, it makes them feel better if they think they're doing something special.

Gus Malzahn not worried about 'a team up north' stealing recruits in Alabama

Former Auburn Coach Pat Dye Is Not Worried About Jim Harbaugh Recruiting In SEC Country

In particular, this is pretty funny:

Okay. I see Gus there. So you got proof of the other 13 now?

Tennessee I got 8 verbals yesterday 7 for 2017. Mostly all 3 Stars. Sounds like a great day.
‘Orange Carpet Day’ a smashing success for Tennessee; leads to eight commits

Id say the satellite camps are doing exactly what I said they would. Give UM and Harbaugh a foot in the door to build relationships and a chance for kids to see how UM coaches are in person.
Aubrey Solomon is a top 100 recruit and a guy everyone thought was a Alabama lean (and who knows, he may end up there), but this is why the SEC was so against these camps.

Now if Nico Collins ends up at UM -- I have a feeling we will see another round of, let's ban sattelite camps from the ACC/SEC.

You da man!

Not saying, I'm the man at all. Just pointing that exactly what I said would happen is happening. It isnt as if UM will be the only school to pull a top recruit from SEC country with the camps. This is why Sankey and the SEC were so against these camps.
