Still hard to understand why they passed up on a talent like Schutt that wanted to come to UM and OSU wasn't even in the discussion. Then he ends up there. :mad:

Diamond sounds like he likes Auburn a lot.
He is set to announce Friday.

Well, they said months ago that the bulk was done, and anything else would be icing on the cake. I guess this must be the icing!

I thought you were almost positive that Auburn is out of the running for Diamond and that UM and Arkansas are the remaining two?WebFire;1071096 wrote:Well, they said months ago that the bulk was done, and anything else would be icing on the cake. I guess this must be the icing!

You mean Diamond? That was the case. Now he says Auburn is back in. I don't know dude. People can only report what the kids say.Scarlet_Buckeye;1071122 wrote:I thought you were almost positive that Auburn is out of the running for Dodson and that UM and Arkansas are the remaining two?

To me it sure seems like Diamond loves the recruiting "game", I think he is a heck of a talent but I do find it strange that our staff would just stop recruiting him immediately after his visit given how weak our o-line is.

There is indeed ANOTHER potential signing day surprise for #Michigan. Definitely caught me by surprise. You never KNOW with recruiting

BTW, to those that keep holding out hope for Diggs, it's not him. Word out of Good Counsel has him delaying things & taking another visit

Danny O'Brien on why he didn't choose Michigan.
LOLWhy not U-M? "I liked coach (Brady) Hoke a lot, too. He turned things around there. I just don't like Ann Arbor. It's a little too liberal for me."

Wonder if Ann Arbor being the 6th most "gayest" city has anything to do with it?!?! >> http://inamerica.blogs.cnn.com/2012/01/09/whats-the-gayest-u-s-city-not-necessarily-the-most-gay-friendly/?hpt=hp_c2WebFire;1071896 wrote:Danny O'Brien on why he didn't choose Michigan.

So sour about this right now haha. He was a UC commit until late last night. We recruited him as a RB, but he wants to play DB in college, says he likes to hit people. I guess its Karma for Caleb Stacey Flipping from UM to UC.WebFire;1071892 wrote:Michigan got the surprise commit in 4* Ath Dennis Norfleet out of Detroit King.

He won't be a DB at Michigan. He wanted to go to Michigan but didn't get the offer until last night. Hard to blame the kid for switching and it does suck for UC.goosebumps;1071994 wrote:So sour about this right now haha. He was a UC commit until late last night.

Kozan is still deciding but now leaning towards Auburn. And Payton has decommitted yet again and will go to UCLA (3rd decommit, 4th school)?
Why bother committing days before and then changing?
