David "LLLL" Dawson (OL ttun)

ESPN - Michigan re-offers David Dawson

11/29

Michigan had parted ways with offensive line commit David Dawson (Detroit/Cass Tech) a short time ago for planning a visit to Florida. The two parties spoke tonight, however, and Michigan is once again recruiting the No. 1 guard in the country.

"I spoke to Coach [Brady] Hoke tonight and he said they are re-offering me," Dawson said. "We had a heart to heart, and I don't want to put everything out there but I was dealing with some things and I might have jumped the gun a little bit.

"We talked about everything and he said that if I want to be there they have a place for me."

If he has the upside that many tout, he would be a great addition to any program. This position and all of the offensive line gives any program the edge. While simply put, if you can run the football and protect the qb and play good defense, you can win.

Yes I know it is a simple tenet, but has played out over time.

Rivals - Mind of Mike: Head-shaking decisions

12/5

What the heck is going on with recruiting these days? Despite my decade-plus experience in the recruiting world and having seen almost everything, there are still a few things that surprise me, and many of them happened this past week. Here are a few things that have me baffled.

EXAMPLE NO. 2: Detroit (Mich.) Cass Tech offensive tackle David Dawson has me scratching my head. Despite being committed to Michigan, Dawson flirted with Florida quite openly and when he wanted to take a visit to Gainesville, Michigan yanked his offer and said it considered him no longer committed. Dawson goes to Florida, doesn't like it and comes home and names Michigan State, Ohio State and Wisconsin as his top three. Now he has official visits set with the Buckeyes, Alabama (out of the blue) and Michigan State and the Badgers are now out.

Then Dawson reaches out to the Michigan coaches and suddenly he has an official set for Ann Arbor for Dec. 14. Another former Michigan commitment, Gareon Conley, will be visiting Michigan that weekend, another example of how the rule coaches try to enforce to committed kids telling them they can't visit other schools doesn't work. Conley will probably end up at Ohio State, but it appears Dawson could end up back at Michigan and all this started because he wanted to see Gainesville, a place he ended up not liking. Huh?

13' Cass Tech OG David Dawson just told me he will no longer be taking his official to #OhioState this weekend due to the ACT.

A crusty turd?

ESPN - Bama sits down with OL David Dawson

12/5

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- Alabama is still in hot pursuit of the nation?s No. 1 offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil, but that hasn?t stopped the Crimson Tide from recruiting other offensive lineman, namely ESPN 150 guard David Dawson.

On Tuesday, UA assistant coach Bobby Williams made the trip up to Michigan for an in-home visit with the Cass Tech star.

?It went well,? Dawson said. ?He got a chance to see my mom again. They talked about academics and how she feels about me being away from home. I talked to him about the same things, but he really got into how things are run down at the University of Alabama.

ESPN - ESPN 150 OG Dawson books OSU official

12/11

Ohio State will get its chance to make a late pitch for the top-ranked offensive guard in the nation when David Dawson (Detroit/Cass Tech) makes an official visit to Columbus, Ohio.

But the 6-foot-4, 282-pound ESPN 150 senior won?t be making the trip when many of the 2013 targets are coming to Ohio State, and that could be a good thing.

Dawson indicated that his trip is slated for Jan. 18 -- a full week after Kenny Lacy, Cornelius Elder, Shelton Gibson, James Hearns, Ryan Timmons, Marcus Baugh, Johnny Townsend and Jalin Marshall are making their visits to see the Buckeyes.
