Welcome to the new website!

Recruiting Season  is a blog about high school recruits exclusively within the state of Michigan. I intend to highlight high schoolers from throughout the state with news, highlights, statistics, etc. I notice more and more the kids who slip through the cracks of the Wolverines and Spartans, end up at MAC schools or elsewhere in the Big Ten, and then blow up at their own respective schools. Hopefully, this will shed some more light on the talent that's spread around Detroit, western Michigan, the rural parts of the state, and simply the overlooked college-level recruits. Perhaps we'll see the likes of another Eric Fisher, the Rochester Hills (MI) Stoney Creek product who turned a Central Michigan scholarship into a #1 overall draft pick.

You may or may not be familiar with my other website, Touch the Banner. TTB  focuses on University of Michigan football and recruiting.
