Respect to
@MasonFootball2
and
@GaryHoughton3
for something different.
Mason had the best chemistry of any team. They always picked each other up, encouraged teammates when one made a mistake, and used a ton of positive self-talk with one another!
Truly a TEAM!
“He’s too small” is something I heard echoed from several college coaches this Summer.
Time and time again, I watched Kade dominate the offseason.
Well, Kade just had the performance of his life going up against an offense with 6+ B1G 10/SEC prospects
Kade has ONE offer-
Miami (OH) is doing WORK in Michigan.
FIVE top 50 plays in Michigan Committed to
@MiamiOHFootball

That's more than any other MAC team by FAR
Yesterday I got to catch up with (uncommitted) 2023
@RockfordRamsFB
QB
@VandenhoutMac
.
Mac totaled 2,717yds and 33TDs on the season, and holds offers from Davenport, Northern Michigan, and Northwood.
We discuss memories, what makes him stand out, and advice to a young athlete
Spent the past 5 hours sending out invites to the Prep Redzone Combine Series 😅
Many more are being sent out tomorrow! Soooo many athletes I really want to see test and compete in person!
Hi Twitter. Just letting you all know I’ll be posting a bit less for the time being. Life just threw the nastiest curveball imaginable. Keep me in your thoughts please.
A very nice grab by
@Owenvanderveen1
yesterday at Legacy.
He told me that he that his sole role last season was at Kicker, and how the 6’4” 190lb East Kentwood athlete is trying out Receiver
Pretty natural receiver skills if you ask me
WHAT A PLAY!!
On a LONG 3rd and goal, Oxford scores and takes the lead!

Belleville’s Interim Head Coach DeJuan Rogers decided to wear a suit during today’s championship game. He said he thought of the game as an “interview”.
I asked him what he meant by “interview” and his response was simple.
“The Future”
Player of the Game- DT Jacob Tur
@Jacob_Tur
- Disruptive on nearly every down
- AMAZING motor
- Pure power rusher
- Consistently won reps against D1 prospects
- One of the best DT performances I’ve ever seen
- also made a ton of plays on the O-Line
Now that I'm home and have a little time to breathe...
GREAT Camp hosted by SVSU
- More individualized coaching than 95% of camps
- Camp is built on competition
- Impressive facilities
- Good impression of staff/team culture
Thank you
@svsu_football
for allowing me to attend!
2028 Receiver Turay Rush was the most impressive WR I watched yesterday.
Great release, change of direction, knows how to separate. Even had an extremely impressive 1-handed grab in the endzone.

@RecruitCapital
It was an amazing experience being on
@Hugeshow

During the show, I talk the best teams and prospects in every region of Michigan.

- Ranked based on trajectory
- This Fall will be HUGE for the class of 2027! I'm looking forward to adding hundreds more players over the next year
Don’t have videos- but
@nolan_vis
was easily the Linebacker MVP of yesterday’s showcase.
ZERO offers listed on Twitter.
- 110% effort on every play
- quick reaction in pass coverage (better than I expected)
- superb run defender
- GLIAC and MAC teams WATCH HIM THIS SUMMER!
@RondreAustion22
from Oak Park earned DB MVP at the Combine Series today.
His speed is REAL. 4.5 40 and could easily get a 4.40 with a few tweaks. Good playmaker. Closes on the football extremely fast. Took coaching well.
Look out for this guy this summer!!!
You need to be an absolute monster football player to play in the GLIAC.
Way too many prospects frankly aiming way too high, not even considering D2 opportunities. Especially with the strength of the GLIAC, there is ZERO shame going D2. In fact, it’s a MASSIVE accomplishment.
Every recruiting cycle we meet a couple guys like Johnny the recruit.
D2 Coach in March
“Hey Johnny we are interested in you!”
Johnny the Recruit
NO RESPONSE
D2 Coach in April
“Hey Johnny just following up! We are interested in you.”
Johnny the Recruit
NO RESPONSE
D2 Coach
Last Tweet of the night before I head back to GR-
@RondreAustion22
was by FAR the fastest player at yesterday's combine. Could easily run a 4.40 40 with practice.
- Good DB skills; can work on patience and not biting
- ELITE closing speed
- Good ball skills
- B1G/SEC Potential
I almost never do postgame interviews, but I HAD to catch up with Oxford QB
@hendrixjack54
after that clutch game-winning drive
