Mike Farrell is never shy to express his opinion on everything from commitments to rankings to how on-field performance affects recruiting. In a new weekly feature - Inside the Mind of Mike - the most experienced analyst in the industry gives some of his thoughts on the events of the past week. This week the focus is on two players from Seffner (Fla.) Armwood that are in the news, led by five-star safety
Leon McQuay III.
Seffner (Fla.) Armwood five-star defensive back
Leon McQuay III made his trip to
USC this weekend and told the staff he is going to wait on his decision, but we'll see if that actually happens. McQuay III has an amazing relationship with defensive coordinator
Monte Kiffin and USC has his specific major (he wants to get into the music industry).
With
Devin Gardner dropping to third on the
Michigan depth chart behind a redshirt freshman and now being much more important as a wide receiver to the offense, can the big three Michigan quarterbacks from 2010 officially be called flops? That looks to be the case. Gardner, who was ranked the highest among the trio that also included
Robert Bolden and
Joe Boisture, seems unlikely to see any real time as the Michigan starter, especially with
Russell Bellomy waiting in the wings and 2013 five star
Shane Morris likely to play sooner than later.
