Coach Greg Mattison on James Hudson
"James Hudson is an outstanding athlete. He comes from a great family and comes to Michigan from Toledo Central Catholic. He played both offense and defense on his high school team, and he was really an outstanding player. He will play at defensive tackle for us here at the University of Michigan, and we are glad that he's going to be a Wolverine."
