Michigan TE explores options
Birmingham (Mich.) Brother Rice two-star tight end Dan Youssif has had a good starto to his senior season. Brother Rice is one of Michigan's better programs and Youssif is one of its better players.
"We've done pretty well," Youssif, who is 6-foot-3 and 240 pounds, said. "We've won all three games. I believe I have five receptions for anywhere between 50 and 75 yards. I've got quite a few pancake blocks and stuff like that."

Youssif has been getting contacted all over the map so far this fall.
"Pretty much all the MAC schools have been in contact," he said. "Central, Western, and Eastern Michigan and Miami of Ohio… My top teams would have to be Eastern, Western, and Central Michigan, Toledo, and probably Central Florida."
Central Florida is a long way from home, though. Is that going to bother him if the Knights do offer?
"My mom's all for it," Youssif said. "She's going to be moving down to Florida when I graduate actually. She just wants me to be happy and make a good decision. She's letting me make my decision but her input means a lot to me."
With an offer from Eastern Michigan on the table, Youssif is just taking his time with the process and looking for the right school.
"I pretty much want to go somewhere that I fit in," he said. "Somewhere I feel comfortable and can see myself at."
