Jordan Payton will get an in-home visit from Michigan on Thursday. He says he is still committed to Cal, but is looking around. His finalist are Cal, UCLA, Washington and Michigan.

Michigan coaches are now saying they are taking 3 WRs in this class. That was previously 2. Does this mean something for Stonum?

Pipkins for UM and Washington for OSU both got the fifth star on rivals which is more stingy with them than scout is. Both these guys are absolute animals and deserved it. There is definitely some serious talent coming in for both these teams.

With one of Cal's coaches bailing, there are rumors that Jarod Payton and Shaq Thompson will now be taking visits.

Didn't think the kid would go to Michigan to begin with, but apparently Hoke is no longer visiting Payton. Reason unknown at this point, though my speculation is that Payton decided to stay out west and cancelled. It was Payton who initiated the home visit to begin with.

I'm really concerned about WR next year.

Twitter is buzzing that Jordan Diamond may have committed to Michigan today. Crossing fingers!

Wow that'd be a big hit to osu, he may be a little bit of a drama queen.. But he's still really good!! And I'd hate to not get him!

Word on the streetz is that that was just another one of Pee Wee Pipkins jokes. He sure is a jolly rotund one.

Guess we'll find out. I personally think there is more to it than that.

I thought the other OL commit tweeted they had another Gem in the class yesterday? Could be Garnett or Diamond.

Personally, I think this is just another example of Michigan trying to get under the skin of Ohio State fans. Guess we'll find out.

Technically he is visiting his school. ;) Thomas is one I don't think is interested in flipping.

So far it looks like these two programs are going to be really fun to watch against each other in the future. Both coaches will prolly be around a while too. We might be in for another ten year battle. Fun times are ahead.

I have read the Kalis comments are already all over the OSU locker room. With that, and OSU not having a bowl game. I expect an epic atmosphere in columbus as well as several boston/woodson esq scuffles.

Your boy Perkins tweeted "I always hated Michigan #Ironic". So it goes both ways. I personally love it. You want guys on your team that hate their biggest rival.

Between Kalis, Pipkins and Manguson, these UM recruits certainly like to talk a big game. As OB said above, Kalis' comments have already made the locker room.

And Perkins' comment is much different than the aforementioned UM recruits have tweeted and said. I hope they keep it up, however, as it fuels the rivalry. I just hope the OSU players can keep their mouths shut.
