Prepare for the worst (Dee Hart)
I know its not one people want to hear, but if this has any truth, it could get ugly today.
Could anybody check Ricardos facebook?

I'm still not worried...Sam has not retracted his gut feeling and TomVH isn't worried. They're in the know.
October 8th, 2010 at 4:03 PM ^
is pretty confident as well.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:11 AM ^
prepare for the worst, but hope for the best
October 8th, 2010 at 12:54 PM ^
Touche my friend, that's sort of how I'm looking at it, even though my gut feeling tells me he's all Blue baby!
October 8th, 2010 at 10:11 AM ^
He's messing with them. He's all Blue, all the way.
October 8th, 2010 at 1:34 PM ^
that's about 4 day old info....but thanks OP.....and yes he's blue.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:11 AM ^
And it doesn't mean jack squat. Hart came away from Auburn announcing a 9/10 visit, and then summarily dropped them. He's choosing between M and Alabama today, but is planning to attend the Wisconsin game later this season. He says, "High on Bama, Roll Tide" but regularly appears in M gear.
Dee Hart is an awesome conundrum.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:17 AM ^
What that article fails to mention is what preceded Hart's statement that he is high on Alabama. I bet the "reporter" asked him his thoughts on Alabama and Hart's response was that he likes them. I am betting that it was not an unsolicited statement. But I could be wrong.
October 8th, 2010 at 2:08 PM ^
understand the media
October 8th, 2010 at 11:23 AM ^
a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma. Or he could just be wrapped in bacon....I am not sure which one applies better here...
October 8th, 2010 at 11:44 AM ^
I'm down for some bacon-wrapped Dee Hart
October 8th, 2010 at 11:55 AM ^
that I'm not going anywhere near.
NTTAWWT.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:12 AM ^
Why would he say that if he plans on announcing his decision today? I'm calling BS on the comment
October 8th, 2010 at 10:12 AM ^
He links to the Orlando Sentinel. This is old news. Everyone else with an opinion is saying he is Blue. I'll still trust Sam Webb's gut feel over this.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:14 AM ^
The Sentinel is a worthless piece of crap paper, just like the Free Press. If Dee Hart chooses Michigan, I say we institute a ban on the Sentinel just like we've done with the Freep or at least require all posts referencing it be prefaced by the fact that the Sentinel is involved in the post.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:52 AM ^
In that second Sentinel article, they at least did all their homework and even said that Dee likes to joke around and many recruiting experts still expect Dee to pick UM. Honestly, the Sentinel did a hell of a job in that piece. They covered all their bases.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:33 AM ^
October 8th, 2010 at 10:13 AM ^
but feel free to waste time worrying about it all day.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:16 AM ^
I kind of planned on worrying about it all day anyway
October 8th, 2010 at 10:16 AM ^
I didn't know we were also recruiting the worse of the two Dee Harts. That's just crazy...
Really?!
EDIT: I see you've edited your title, now this makes little sense. I will now go back to pulling my hair out in anticipation of what Dee decides. I can't wait for the Dee-cision. I sure hopes he takes his talents to Ann Arbor.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:14 AM ^
Say it out loud. It doesn't sound correct, does it?
October 8th, 2010 at 10:15 AM ^
(Knock on wood) Dee is gonna start the weekend off right tonight.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:16 AM ^
you can tell in the comment he is being sly. he wants everyone to think he is picking their particular school. Makes for a much more anticipated and fun night tonight when he announces.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:16 AM ^
I was on Dee's facebook page. He has a lot of Michigan friends, didn't see any tide friends.
Just sayin.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:26 AM ^
Weird.
October 8th, 2010 at 11:05 AM ^
I snuck into Dee Hart's room and went through his closet. It seems he has more blue clothes than red. A good sign, obvi.
October 8th, 2010 at 11:10 AM ^
Coming from you, this does not surprise me.
October 8th, 2010 at 11:12 AM ^
Anything for my team.
October 8th, 2010 at 7:29 PM ^
Reasons that Magnus made it to 30k points... this is one.
October 8th, 2010 at 7:47 PM ^
Reasons that Magnus made it to 30k points... this is one.
October 8th, 2010 at 12:07 PM ^
but I did laugh out loud at that
October 8th, 2010 at 10:17 AM ^
Worse than what?
October 8th, 2010 at 10:34 AM ^
With all the threads and noise this week, we will know tonight. I always prepare for the worst, but I am sure I wouldn't care what MR. SEC has to say on this.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:20 AM ^
Anyone remember the Will Campbell ZOMG freakout before his commitment? Dee is blue.
October 8th, 2010 at 11:26 AM ^
I too am optimistic, but this is a logic fail.
October 8th, 2010 at 12:09 PM ^
I hope this one works out better than that (so far) has. We're rooting for you Will.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:21 AM ^
Relax. Yes, we all want Dee to go Blue. Our option offense would be unstoppable with Dee and Denard back there. Just think of the dreads. He is a huge recruit at a high profile position. Adding him could lead to some good recruiting momentum (which I think is already building).
But, he is just 1 guy. If we don't get him, there will be others. They may not be as good or have as nice dreads, but there will be other RBs that RR and his staff will unearth. I am not going to lose sleep one wat or the other over the fanciful whims of a 17 year old.
That said, I think Dee will go Blue and it will make me happy.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:38 AM ^
We should be far more excited about that #1 CB who is coming into town for the Sibling Rivalry:
http://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/big-recruit-visit-1-cb-doran-grant-be-visit…
I really don't get why everyone gets worked up about an RB. Our offense is already ridiculous people! Let's focus on recruiting DBs and LBs!!!
October 8th, 2010 at 1:34 PM ^
Some one said something that makes sense. Congradulations to you for your clear thinking. Maybe we can get a DT too. Imagine a 4 man front w/ competent LB's...
October 8th, 2010 at 10:23 AM ^
whateva whateva. it's only a few hours man, just wait it out.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:27 AM ^
Unfortunately it's not until tonight now.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:25 AM ^
I'll hold off on the panic until Dandy Don chimes in.
October 8th, 2010 at 1:35 PM ^
I heard there's a 60% chance he chooses LSU. So I'm not concerned.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:26 AM ^
All I can say is Dee really likes to mess around with that newspaper. I'm still confident we get him but I can't say that I like his style.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:26 AM ^
...we're in pretty good shape at the RB position now. We're serviceable, if not outstanding. Dee could help make our RB position outstanding, but he's still only one player.
If we don't get him, it will open the door to other capable backs who may be considering us.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:35 AM ^
I think Dee Hart is more symbolic than anything. I think the value of this committment (other than adding his talent) will be the fact that his recruitment has been a fairly high-profile one and him choosing Michigan over Alabama might raise several eyes, especially in Florida. You can see this in the fact that several others from Dr. Phillips are also making the trip up to Ann Arbor.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:29 AM ^
Can't we just wait for press conferences instead of begging for Facebook stalking? I mean, is it really that much more important to know this information at 10:20 a.m. instead of 10:00 p.m. He wouldn't even play a down until almost a year from now, if that.
Chill.
October 8th, 2010 at 10:35 AM ^
When is the announcement?
