Just shows that it's going to take a while to change the minds of some kids/families in the state. We've got a lot of kids out there that are brainwashed from day one for Michigan by their parents and that's tough to get through.

Wasn't really expecting him to come here anyway but i'm glad he at least got to see what a beatdown of scUM looks like.

I honestly think he had a great visit and likes where our coaches want to use him (think of Hernandez for the Patriots)... Michigan doesn't have an offense that can use him at multiple positions like that.
Michigan is Michigan... The states runner up.

Yeah tough for us to get through a lifetime of this kid and his family rooting for scuM and against State. The article a while back where his dad was all geeked to have caught a pass in front of glenn s. and the mom being all yellow and blue tells quite a bit of the uphill on this kid.
It is a dawn of a different day in recruiting with this staff unlike in the past when we got strung along and wasted time and efforts on kids who never planned on realistically coming to State. This staff has many other options of equally high caliber (potential) to look to.

What does "michigan is michigan" mean? How many times to we have to put them over our knee and spank them in front of these kids before they realize that ship has sailed. It's a new day in college football. We're opening against Boise State, and it's not considered a "lay down" opener. When that dude was 6 or 7 I think Boise was 1AA. Whole new ballgame. Been a while since scUM was dominant.

For me, it meant that Michigan is a bunch of douche bags. Looking good for us.

It's a no-lose situation for MSU perception-wise. Kid's a UM lean. If he goes to UM, then it's expected. If he goes to MSU, then it's kind of a big deal because the kid grew up a UM fan. I like that the kid wants to play H-back; it's an integral position in MSU's O and is a fantastic redzone weapon.

Or better yet, we should have brainwashed him during his visit like in the Manchurian Candidate. That way, when he inevitably commits to UM, he'll convince his teammates to skip practice and start smoking meth. I'm pretty sure this is the greatest idea since the forward pass.

I prefer my idea of becoming a booster for a rival school, and sending their players checks.

Looks decent and I'd like to pull a UM kid into our stable but like some of you said there are other options out there. His comment regarding girls is common knowledge so not real sure why he even wasted the tweet.

Can't read the VIP article, but historically this means: Arrogant Asses.

If you read his past interviews - his mom is a fan of UofM and thats what really all is said. I have met his parents at school functions and actually he grew up in NJ and moved to Michigan. Remember too that he has a great connection with Palazetti at MSU who was a big CC star a few years back.
