West Helena Central cornerback Darius Winston, the nation's No. 2 cornerback in the class of 2009 and the class' 20th overall player, has de-committed from the University of Arkansas. His uncle, Buck Willie, said Winston is still considering Arkansas but named Michigan as his leader.

Both aren't very good for cornerbacks. He needs to go to an SEC school where he'll be forced to guard the fastest offenses in the nation.

Give me a break!

Not every SEC school is LSU!

Anyone remember watchin' UofM walk over FL in the bowl game??
( I'm not even a UofM fan)

How did Arkansas do in their bowl game?

It takes more than a fast offense to win today!

June 17, 2008  08:19 AM ET

IMO, the SEC doesn't possess the fastest offenses in the nation. Fastest defenses, yes. Fastest offenses usually are WVU (and others) and mid-major schools.

Michigan isn't good for CB's? Morgan Trent and 5 Star Starter as a Freshman last year Donovan Warren (who was plucked from USC who thought they had him) aren't good CBs? Dude, you gotta stop tokin cuz it's affecting your ability to judge talent. When the fog clears from your mind, look up Charles Woodson, He's some nobody CB from Michigan that had a few good games who now is with Green Bay. And look up another slowpoke CB named Leon Hall. One thing is for sure, you're faster in rolling a doobie than these guys are at the 40. Be proud with that. ;)

And according to a source close to Michigan, Darius is recruiting UM as hard as UM is recruiting him. And that is a shock for many UM fans who follow recruiting because it has been very rare in the past for a highly ranked kid in the South to focus solely on Michigan. But how times are a changin' under RR and his talented coaching staff.

Credit Coach Jay Hopson for this change of events.

Oh, C-smith,

Forgot to mention you need to watch this. This is where that slow poke UM CB Morgan Trent is outrun by that fast race car like Percy Harvin from the SEC. It clearly shows that SEC speed can not compare to Big 10 CB speed.

View it a few times to get a full feeling of just how fast SEC is compared to the Big 10.

copy and paste.

Lets see Ty Law, Charles Woodson, Marlin Jackson, Leon Hall all 1st rounders.....in a couple years add Donovan Warren to the mix, I think UM does pretty good at that position.

June 17, 2008  08:50 AM ET

But the real question is ... Buck Willie?!?!? Sounds like an adult movie star.

June 17, 2008  09:19 AM ET

If he commits. Its a great pick-up. However, he wont be able to stop Mr. Pryor



O-H-I-O

"the SEC doesn't possess the fastest offenses in the nation."

I have two words for you.....Trindon Holliday!!!

June 17, 2008  09:40 AM ET

Trindon Holliday is a special teams player. He rarely plays offense because of his small frame (5-5), and one player doesn't make their whole offense fast.

This will be a great pick up for Michigan and RR. Good choice kid!

June 17, 2008  10:04 AM ET

It will be a good pickup for Michigan. Michigan has had some great corners over the years.

Two items of note:

1) Michigan has a long standing tradition of producing great CB's
2) You sir are a moribound **** sniffer

June 17, 2008  10:21 AM ET

I'd leave Arkansaa too. They got coach who is likely to leave in the middle of the season when the going gets tough.

June 17, 2008  10:44 AM ET

THE TRUTH: Come again. Dont hate..... O-H-I-O

June 17, 2008  10:54 AM ET

I think the country is finally sick of hearing about the so caled SEC speed, fast are everywhere.

This kid would be just another in a long line of great corners up north.

June 17, 2008  10:54 AM ET

I meant "fast GUYS are everywhere.." sorry

Until your team can win a bowl game against the SEC you should refrain from comments like these.

Why does every piece o'crap buckeye fan have to use "OH..IO" in their responces? Look out...there's an SEC team right behind ya!!!!!!!

 
June 17, 2008  11:48 AM ET

i admit . sec is very good. no denying the fact. no denying that the gators killed us 41-14. however, ohio state should have one last years natl title game. I am looking at the futore. i see ohio state winning it all this year. we have everyone back except 2 players. a great recruiting calss and everyone is just hating the buckeyes because they have lost 2 natl title games in a row. I would advise you haters to keep in mind . ohio state is the premier football team in college football period. we will return and win . watch and see for yourself on sept 13th when ohio state rolls over usc in l.a.

I am not worried about the usc game. i am actually worried at the game after when ohio state plays troy. troy runs the type of offense that gives the buckeyes trouble. However, i believe they will over come the obsticles and win their 2 natl title in 6 yrs. I am aware that the buckeyes have struggled against the sec recently... and michigan has done very well. osu needs to get its **** into gear. and we will..... watch!

The TRUTH .. you cant deny the fact that osu is college football. stop the hate

O-H-I-O
