Jared Wangler visiting today
Potential flip? I would think so. Out of all possible flips, he's the most likely we've seen in a while, IMO. Per Steve Wiltfong, per Jared Wangler's tweet.

Michigan doesn't pull a players scholarship offer. But if you want to look around, your spot is now available for someone else. It may not be there when you want to come back. It's a players risk they are taking. The coaches can't hold a spot until signing day and learn a player they thought was commited the whole time switched on them. Hoke just prepares himself for the worst possible scenario. I dont think there is anything wrong with that.
Thanks for a reasonable answer that provided some insight baran.
this is a backhanded jab at the rest of us who are only trying to be entertaining.
Ha I just appreciated the response. As I said I wasn't trying to troll, I was just looking for some insight.
Plus, you get to take somewhere between 15 and 25 or so wives every year.
1) Verball commitments are of course "non-binding," so there is nothing to stop any coach from continuing to recurit committed players. It is up to the committed player to tell interested coaches to buzz off.
2) When a Michigan verbal offer is extended and accepted, it means that the coaches will honor that offer and no longer recruit other players for that scholarship opening, assuming of course that player does not visit other schools after accepting the offer.
4) If a verbally committed player vistis another school, then the coaches will no longer hold that scholarship spot for the player and the coaches will begin recruiting other players for that spot.
5) If that happens, then the once-committed player MAY still be recruited for that open spot, but the coaches will assess the circumstances under which the committed player made the visit to see if they are still worth that scholarship spot (ie. Dawson, yes. Pharoa Brown, no.)
6) Lastly, all of this is explained to the recruits before they make a verbal commitment so there is no confusion about the policy.
There is nothing hypocritical about it and lots of coaches have the same policy, including Mack Brown for example.
Great insight. But what's #3?

I thought this would go over my head since I don't have kids, but this might be the best analogy so far.

If he signs, does anyone know how many more offers we have ?
