Welcome to the SportsInferno.com Recruiting Forum

May be a UM Forum with a Recruiting subset forum, same for MSU

[SportsFromA2]

Just post player specific stuff (when he's announcing stuff, who offered him etc.) in his thread, and talk about him and how it affects UM in the UM thread. This isn't that difficult.

yup, exactly...

We will see how it all plays out. But at this point Michigan has offered 73 prospects, then add in local prospects, plus the offers to MSU prospects and if every one is a separate thread, this is going to be a mess very fast

I agree with a separate place for recruiting, just think we need to be wise about what recruits get a thread to themselves

If thats such a big worry, why not split things up by schools, counties, etc. I'm thinking that would lower the thread count and reduce the CF.

I think it should only be for recruits that MSU/UM are going after. That's all we really care about imo. There won't be too much clutter

Having the same set up for each thread would look a lot better. Most of those threads just start out of nowhere. Just having his basic info in the thread is all that is needed IMO. Just my 2 cents.

Sorry about the other thread I started, didn't see this one

So you don't care about any DET area kid unless they are thinking about UM/MSU?

Any kid from Detroit that is decent is going to be considering MSU/UM. Heck, all the top 15-20 players in the state will probably have interest in MSU/UM. Outside of that, nobody cares about 2 star Joe Blow going to Grand Valley State, Alma, Western, Centeral or Eastern Michigan

I couldn't care less about recruiting so take it FWIW but I disagree. Kids coming from or going to people's alma mater will definitely have interest. Kids that people know personally will too IMO.

Okay, then they can start a thread on the kid if they want. All I'm saying is that the majority of the people here only care about kids going/have offers from MSU or UM. Hence the fact, that kids going to MAC schools rarely get mentioned in the recruiting thread from last year.

Im personally not a big fan of starting new threads for out of state kids unless they commit...

I prefer that over local kids who Michigan/MSU are not interested in

eh, if a thread is started and there's not that much interest it'll just get buried by newer/more popular threads.. no harm, no foul - I say if someone's motivated enough to make a thread about a kid, let them.. The worst that'll happen is nobody responds and it get buried.

Maybe as a courtesy just try to limit the number of threads each person makes a day to like 5 or something? Not that it's against the rules or anything like that, just so it doesn't get too out of hand - ex: someone could come in and make 500 threads about random players, that might defeat the purpose of the forum...
