It\’s very simple, the Michigan football team has a very, very, very bright future.
Thanks to (possibly) 9-10 five star recruits and 33-36 four star recruits, Brady Hoke has brought in more talent than, maybe, ever before. By the time Team 136 puts on the Maize and Blue, the team will be made up 5 Hoke-recruited classes (4 full classes and 1 partial class after RichRod was fired). That is very exciting for Wolverine Nation.
Michigan is on it\’s way to multiple Big Ten Championships if this talent pans out like everyone is expecting.
