Big week for Eno Benjamin as he visits the Midwest this week.
Tues Michigan
Wed. Ohio State
Thurs. Northwestern
Friday Iowa
Sat Arkansas

I'm thinking it's between Michigan and Iowa, unless Texas pops an offer at the last second and he decides to stay home. Good news is Ohio State got a commitment from 4* JK Dobbins today for their 2nd RB for 2017. I would think that would discourage him away from OSU. He likes Iowa alot, so if he isn't overwhelmed by the Big House, Iowa might get lucky! I read somewhere he doesn't want to wait until the last second to decide

Sounds like Arkansas is a player now for Eno. Switched his trip from Kansas to Arkansas on Saturday. Loves the RB coach there, so has a strong connection going. Too bad he wasn't with the other recruits today in Iowa City.
 
You never know what's really going on inside a kids head, but his Twitter feed as of late is littered with Michigan junk.
 
F@#$ Michigan. Harbaugh is a complete d bag. I have ZERO reflect for that ass as a human being let alone as a coach. He makes urban Meyer look like mother Teresa. Slimy dirty used car salesman. We need to send a message to him this fall in Kinnick.

Btw it's only a matter of time before his phony games and lack of character and moral and ethics wears it out in Michigan. He might have that school slayed but Adventist kids will figure out he's not a man of his word and beyond trust, and kids will stop responding to his nonsense.

One I agree with you on his actions and cant stand it. However he is a God in Ann Arbor and they will back him no matter what crazy stunt he pulls next. He can do no wrong in their eyes. They view him as PSU fans view Paterno. Turn a blind eye to anything negative.

You're right and it will end up biting them in the back side eventually. I think his game and his antics will where thin. Pulling scholarships from kids at the last minute and operating like an SEC school and sending out shit tons of offers and then telling kids who wanna commit no when he has a potentially better option will wear thin quickly. And I'm not sold that he's even a great coach.
 
That is quite a whirlwind tour. It would be hard to even take it all in with that schedule. It will be a blur.

With that, being toward the end might be good.
 
Ohio State has two running backs already committed and Michigan has one running back conjured in the 2017 class. Also landed Kareem Walker, one of the top RBs in 2016. Hopefully that works in Iowas favor with Eno Benjamin. Would be a heck of a get.
 
Of all the schools, it would appear he would have the best shot at significant playing time as a true freshman at Iowa.
 
I expect Michigan to hit hard on Eno tomorrow. It doesn't look like they are in the driver's seat for any other top backs right now, so that leaves Eno. Article on the Michigan page said Eno says he could commit on his visit if he really likes it, but would likely wait to make a couple more visits. That did not sound promising, to say the least. Hopefully, he get to Iowa City on Friday!
 
F'ing Harbaugh. He's the biggest dbag coach in the country. Don't fall for his bs Eno. He's never gonna beat Urban Meyer. We are the program on the rise in this conference. Come be a part of this and carry the load for this offense behind some of the best offensive linemen in the country.

He could play as a true freshman. But with wadley and Mitchell being seniors that year, idk if it would be significant.

They seem to have a way of splitting time up, especially with injuries, to play 3 guys. Who really knows a year from now, Roy...maybe you're right though, if someone really steps up.

I don't like Harbaugh, but I can admit he is a great coach. He has won every place he's been at. I don't think that's a coincidence.

I also agree that he appears to be an asshole, and that honestly might be part of what makes him a good coach. He appears to be a ruthless, win at all costs type of person. While that may wear thin with people in the long run, in the short run he produces impressive results.

I think he will have great success at Michigan for the next 4-5 years, but I don't see him there long term. With his personality, I think it will be difficult for him to stay in one spot for too long, and eventually he will yearn to get back to the NFL and chase a Super Bowl.

He wins early but over the course of a couple of years, his act wears thin. And I'll argue that Shaw at Stanford has done a BETTER job than Harbaugh did. I think he's a snake. A man of very questionable morals and ethics and values. He's an anti-Kirk Ferentz. I think Harbaugh makes Urban Meyer look like Mother Teresa. I can't stand him and hope he falls flat on his face in Ann Arbor.

What about Joly, Graham and Toks no playing time for them ?

They could play too.. But I just think it will be hard to take time from the seniors at the time wadley and Mitchell.. We've yet to see graham toks, and toren young play.. So idk how good they really are.
 
Harbaugh built the program at Stanford and Shaw has maintianed it. That said from what i'm hearing it will likely come down to Iowa, Michigan, and Arkansas. Arkansas has a great ground game and they have been looking for someone like Eno. Iowa is going to need to sell Eno on being a featured back in our offense that can be a 1,000 yd rusher as well as a key player in the passing game. Iowa hasnt had a 1,000 yd rusher since 2011 mainly due to injury.

As far as being discouraged . . . isn't the mantra on HR "good players aren't afraid of competition". Does anyone else get sick of that naivete??

This cracks me up. Eno has had Iowa on top of his list basically since day 1. Eno could commit anywhere if he 'really likes it.'
 
Eno sends like a smart, grounded kid in his interviews. I really hope that he sees through the bs that is Harbaugh and Urban Meyer, gives Kirk and our program a chance, and ultimately sees that a kid with his skill set absolutely thrives in our program. We've also put more than a handful of backs in the League and we will always put a solid offensive line out there for him to run behind. I would show him what our system can be and show him Canzieri against Illinois, Wadley against NW, and Daniels against Minnesota as well as a reminder of what Shonn Greene accomplished here.
