Dionte has been named to Rivals Junior All-America team.

Allen has extremely fluid hips and can close on a football like no other high schooler in the nation.

Notre Dame has offered. FSU, Michigan, Notre Dame are his leaders at this point. Ohio State, Miami(FL) are also in the mix. Grew up a Florida State fan.

i believe it was in gants thread, but good info non the less

normally I would say that it is a positive, but this kid's love of scUM and FSU are well documented. I also had some info late in the game that had Peters leaning to scUM (after being hosted by his cousin James McKinney) and we all know how that worked out. nevertheless, I hope we can at least get Dionte down here for camp and/or an official visit (preferrably to see us pound on Michigan in November).

actually your source was right, when Peters was in AA he committed, when he got back home he changed his mind. Rumor was that mom pulled a Kellen Winslow Sr. on her son. lol

I believe the appropriate term this year is "pulling a Vidal Hazelton Sr."...

Here's hoping the family bonds are a little stronger with Gant and Allen.

Ron English the Michigan DB coach just took the Bears job hopefully it will help us with Allen.

Next year me and my team have to play these guys. Now half of me is savoring at the fact that there could be college scouts there, and they could notice me, throwing at these guys is scaring me to death. haha.

Allen's Scout profile says we have offered him along with scUM, FSU, ND, MSU, and Purdue.

Dionte admits the Michigan staff changes have made him reassess his position with the Wolverines, but he does have a strong relationship with Coach English. He is waiting on an offer from FSU, but lists Michigan, Florida State, Notre Dame, and Ohio State as early leaders.

Michigan seems to be the clear cut leader from his updates....

I have to agree...and a lot of sources behind the scenes have been saying that as well.
