As a youngster, Ventura (Calif.) St. Bonaventure DB Terrail Lambert's first memory of college football was watching Michigan on TV. Since then, he has considered himself a Wolverine fan. As a top-notch high school football recruit, Lambert has placed U-M at the top of his lsit of favorite schools and is receiving considerable interest in return from the Michigan staff. "[Michigan] is probably my No. 1 choice as of right now," he said. The 5-foot-11, 189-pound Lambert solidified himself as a top notch prospect at the U.S. Army all-American combine in January where he earned MVP honors.

One of the more highly recruited football players in New Jersey for 2004 is 6-foot-4, 255-pound DT Dwayne Hendricks of Millville. The list of colleges offering Hendricks includes Iowa, Virginia, Michigan, Boston College, Maryland, Michigan State and Syracuse, among many others. According to his coach, Dave Heck, that list grows daily. "His recruiting is pretty hot and heavy right now," he said. "He has somewhere between 15 and 20 offers and that changes by the day. Actually, it would be easier to do it the other way around and list the few schools that have not shown interest in him than to talk about all the schools that have contacted us."
