The
much anticipated Nike Camp, The Opening, was this past weekend in
Beaverton, Oregon. Loaded with talent, it has been said to be one of the
best camps of the year, if not the best. On hand were the best high
school players from all over the country, including 7 Michigan Commits
and several Michigan targets. Representing the Maize and Blue were QB
Shane Morris, DB Jourdan Lewis, TE Jake Butt, OG David Dawson, DE Taco
Charlton, OL Kyle Bosch, LB Mike McCray. All of these players were
there, but Kyle Bosch
did leave early due to personal reasons so I won't really have much to
say about him, but he did show up the first day so he deserves to be
mentioned. Two of Team 134's members made the all-tournament team. TE Jake Butt and DB Jourdan Lewis. Both of these guys showed up big time in 7-on-7 play and were definitely deserving of the honors. If you pay any attention to the recruiting sites, then you will know that people are saying Jourdan Lewis's rankings should skyrocket. I said before the tournament that he would prove he's one of the best DB's in the country and he showed it this past weekend. Making big time plays and even an interception in the finals to gave his team a shot at the championship late in the game. Jake Butt came up big for his team and he quickly became one of his quarterback's favorite targets. I watched some video and he made some great plays, including a nice grab on the sideline, where he got both feet in and maintained possession.
