Shaun Crawford told a Rivals writer tonight that he's still committed to UM. Doesn't mean much, but he didn't bail yet.

I can't believe how George Campbell's stock has fallen. A lot of people think he'll end up on defense.

Damien Harris and George Campbell are both 5* players. Harris #5 in the nation, Campbell #7.

Interesting. Because just 5 months ago you seemed to be pretty confident he was a 5-star player. Not so much now?

1. In the first post you quoted, I stated a 100% FACT. Harris at the time was 5th, Campbell 7th. Not sure where you get the idea that I was "confident", and I have no idea what that even has to do with the most recent post.

2. What the fuck are you talking about? Has his stock fallen? Yes. Me saying "I can't believe blah blah" insinuates that I thought he was really, really good, and I am shocked as the fall he's taken. Keep reaching dude. You're trying to weasel into a "yep just another fan de-valuing a guy who bailed on his team", when that isn't the case at all. Fuck you, and may god have mercy on your soul.

@Trueblue23 - So let me get this straight... on 12/19/13... George Campbell was a 5-star, correct? Yet, when I questioned then if he was truly a 5-star recruit (and got blasted for it by UM fans), I was an idiot. Now, flash forward to 5/21/14 (just 5 months later), Campbell's stock has taken a significant hit. So who was right? All the Michigan totting hippies who said he was a 5-star recruit back in Dec. 2013, or the guy who questioned whether Campbell truly was a 5-star recruit and now that more film & scouting has come out re: the kid, now major recruiting services are starting to drop him. Hmmmm?

You seemed confident Campbell was a 5-star in December (i.e., you believed he was a 5-star). Now, you don't seem so confident (i.e., now, it sounds like you do not believe anymore that he's a 5-star).

Can something really be "100% FACT" if not even a half-a-year later an assertion no longer holds true? Yes, Campbell at the time was rated as a 5-star prospect by a recruiting service; doesn't mean he is/was truly a 5-star recruit. If that same services calls a banana an orange, is it a banana or is it an orange? What if later they call it a banana? Was it ever really an orange?

You have gone full retard.

I didn't seem confident/not confident back in December. I stated a fact, dumbass. I really don't care how he's rated because he isn't going to Michigan. He could've moved up to #1, or dropped out of the top 100, and I wouldn't have a feeling either way. I said he was a 5-star recruit, which was a fact. Then I said I was surprised he dropped like he did, because most recruiting services billed him as the next big thing at WR, which is why they rated him a 5* in the first place.

As for your banana/orange statement, you might be the dumbest person ever.

Let's try an experiment.

Let's say you're our George Campbell, and when the OC began, we rated you as one of the 10 best posters on the site. Now that we've had time to evaluate you, we all realize you're a dbag. Does that mean that at one point in time you were not rated as a top 10 poster? Does it? No, it doesn't. There are facts behind the statement that GC was a 5-star recruit, as rated by Rivals.

He was a 5 star recruit. This had nothing to do with Michigan. I'm not even sure what you are arguing.

His only hope in life was to be an athlete. Nobody is hiring a Messiah for a legitimate good paying job.

Nice, but I'm not too excited about him yet. Kid has already committed and bailed on a school, I think he's one that'll look around.
