Appreciated, but I'm actually going to go against RR here. I always said RR would be able to recruit better at Michigan than at WVU simply because it's Michigan. It still is. Michigan has always gotten kids like this - they're not likely to play, nor make it to the NFL, and there are some that prefer to be able to say they were on the Michigan football team, even if it means not playing, than to say they played D-II. Whether RR was the coach or someone else my guess is Furrha would still have wanted to play at Michigan. As someone pointed out, Pioneer is literally across the street from the stadium.
