Re: something from nothing, an eastern Michigan dynasty
The regular season is over and while the winners are not yet known the losers have been made quite apparent and emulation is among them. However theree is no point in dwelling on what happened. when asked about the season heee is what coach Carr had to say.
"sure, we didnt have the best year but we outdid what most.thought we could. When faced with.tough times such as jacksons injury troubles and Dixon and mendoza being banged up at times the kids all showed toughness abduction fought through. I think the last game was a good representation of what these kids can do. We went into niu's house and nearly beat a team that will ay.for the conference title even without our starting QB.most of the game. Seeing that i have hogh hopes for the future"
Enough about past failures though. There are a going to be some new faces on campus next year. Lets look at those who.have.already signed.
HB Jared Mcdaniel, 6' 189 lbs Big Rapids Michigan. As a 3* recruit jared is so fae the headliner of the class. He is an explosive runner with.the moves in the open field to be a big play threat and could be a day 1 starter.
T David Jacobs 6'4" 273 lb Montreal Canada. David is a good athlete for his size but needs to improve his technique before he can play.
DE James Dailey 6'2 245 lbs Rochester Michigan. James is undersized for the 3-4 but has the strength to hold up against the run.
QB Anthony Williams 6' 219 lbs Halifax Canada. Anthony was a first week signing who is a backup plan incase i dont sign anyone better. He is a 2* player with a decent arm but very limited mobility.
FB kellen Joseph 6'1 223 lbs Allen park Michigan. Kellen is one of 2 1* players signed.so far an is the 47th best FB in the class. He is a tough runner with the required blocking technique but no mean streak.
SS Eric Dixon 5'11 211 lbs Hamilton Ohio. Eric will most likely be outmatched on defense but could see time on special teams.
There you have it. Not a great class yet but there are players in there who cpuld make an impact sooner rather than later and others who will provide depth
