Linemen critical to recruiting

WolverineNation runs a recruiting mailbag feature every other week and conducts a live chat in the weeks when the mailbag doesn't run. Here's a look at this week's questions from the readers:

Q: Subscriber binger2424: Do you think there will be a decommitment in this class and possibly how many? I know this class is very tight-knit, but there is inevitably at least one who drops off. Also, who do you think could join (Michael) Ferns (St. Clairsville, Ohio/St. Clairsville) in the 2014 class?

A: You snuck two questions in there, nicely done. To answer the first question, if I could predict the future I wouldn't be typing this right now. It's hard to tell because outside of Gareon Conley's tweets about committing too early there hasn't really been any signs of it.
