How did BBQ at the Big House go?

Submitted by aflapan on
Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone had some idea on how the BBQ at the Big House went? I saw the Twitter posts, but there didn't seem to be any commits. This seemed weird since there always used to be a few commitments in the previous years, and ace was apparently going to be glued to his computer with the hello posts ready.

On the food side...don't know if previous food comments are serious, or jokes flying over my head, but I'd love to know any details (thanks!): 1. Caterer? 2. Menu? 3. Good BBQ?

Deron Irving-Bey said he was totally blown away. He said UM exceeded his expectations by far! His mom said it was the absolute best visit they had been on. He couldn't speak any higher of coach Mattison. He was also thoroughly impressed with the gear. At one point he was a heavy spartan lean but he said that's no longer the case.

REUBEN jones was excellent. 

the Jabrill PEPPERS brought out the best in the TACO Charlton

the J O'KORN was cooked to perfection.

Everyone's Jake BUTT was a little bigger after the MGOBBQ.

just a couple names off the top of my head...Feel free to expand.

Most recruits felt that the event smoked the competition, but a few were looking for a more finished event, and felt it was a bit raw. That's just what I heard! Don't rake me over the coals!

a few people at the event. Not Gentry, just regular folks.  Apparently the BBQ Offerdahl the fixins!  No alcohol allowed, so nobody got tanked.  A few recruits were brushed toward a UM commitment, and nobody was rubbed the wrong way.  One recruit bragged he was lighter and more fluid than Peppers, and got a chili response from Kingsford Davis.  Runyan has it that Dantonio is charred over being foiled by UM recruiting.  Knifing his way to the podium, he vowed to mustard up as much energy as possible, and match light a fire under his own staff's ashes.  Not to spill the beans, but they'll never ketchup (BTW, the brand used at the BBQ was Dymonte).  We're gonna burn their buns, and kick their Butt all over the recruiting ball park, Frank.  Seriously, FORK MSU.  They're gonna need a Hurst, 'cuz we're ready to start Mone everybody over and salting away wins.  Time to meat all of our Big Tong and national chompionship coals.

My summary would be: everyone that came, who already had us in their top 3, left with Michigan as their leader. Everyone else who came, who didn't know where Michigan stood in their recruitment, left with Michigan in their top 3.
