I don't know about that. If Beanie gets injured in 2008, we are left with MoWells, Saine and Herron, the latter two are both unproven, and of one of whom (Saine) there are reports of being used as a WR. . I'm not sure I would call that good depth.

Well Devoe will be there as well, and that is 4 scholarship backs behind Beanie. When was the last time we could say that? I don't expect Saine to be anything near a full-time wide receiver. |

Oh, come on now. Good thing every fan forum has a rival fan on it or else holier-than-thou statements would run amok. Fact is, nobody who seriously follows Michigan recruiting thinks this kid for sure Blue. Many of us are still upset/confused we haven't offered Jonas Gray, a sick in-state prospect (I'm sure many of you have heard of), and that we hope our coaches aren't putting all of their marbles in McGuffie's or Deboskie's baskets. I personally am one to not believe any "silent committ" nonsense. There's a reason why it's silent, no one would know about it outside of the player, his family, and the respective coaching staff, period. Also, we have depth at the RB position just as much as you guys. You don't know how well Saine or DeVoe or even Boom Herron (best. name. ever?) will pan out and Mo Wells and Beanie are the only for sure backs. Mike Hart is stickin around for another year, junior Kevin Grady will most likely heal up and be a solid back for two more years (medical redshirt this season), and Brandon Minor and Carlos Brown are both sophomores this upcoming season. Depth is as much an issue for UM as it is for tOSU, don't kid yourself Mr. Schwab. P.S. I love Stump the Schwab...great show! haha kidding.

Have we learned nothing from the Lydell Ross/ Maurice Hall Era?

Are you suggesting that Wells (2X), Saine, Herron, and Torrence are no more likely to succeed than Ross and Hall?

Hall was determined to play RB, despite the coaches wishes. Back to McGuffie.
McGuffie is being recruited as a athlete, I doubt the coaches would bring him in soley as a RB. I also doubt Michigan is bringing him in as a RB only as well. Just ask P. Burgess.
