I would like to thank the whole UM family of fans and coaches for the wonderful opportunity in this recruiting process. After much discussion with my family, I have decided I will back off my commitment to the University of Michigan. I truly feel this is the best course of action in order to make the right decision for me. #NoQuestions #Comments

Yep. Just about everybody saw this coming. Oh well.
Good luck to the kid. Maybe he'll come back into the fold at some point.
August 23rd, 2016 at 4:25 AM ^
Im surprised he committed in the first place. As well as it being accepted. But no doubt the kid is a stud.

Goodbye From The Future

ha ha. good one.
August 22nd, 2016 at 3:59 PM ^
No shocker here.... "Committed"
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:03 PM ^
Just like Michigan "offers" kids. Nobody is keeping their word in this so as long as everyone is truthful its all semantics. Committed means heavy leader and taking kid means until the school can find someone better.
He is probably going to end up at OSU.
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:00 PM ^
Long time until signing day, I guess

Plenty of time to re-change his mind and return to the Good Guys.
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:00 PM ^
2018 is a long way; personally never kept tracked for years beyond the current cycle. Good luck to the kid regardless.

don't care. real football in 12 days
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:01 PM ^
Most likely he ends up a buckeye. He is going to have a whale of a time against the team we are assembling now!
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:58 PM ^
Considering the class they're putting together for 2017, as well as the past 15 years of how OSU has played against us I'm sure he's just fine. Now I really do hope we go on a major run, but I don't see that happening.
August 22nd, 2016 at 5:03 PM ^
Guess what? Shit changes.
I'm so sick of the wimpy attitudes in regards to them. Fuck them.
We're good, too. The past years have no relevance to this year's team. These kids don't give a shit about 2007 or 2009.
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:01 PM ^
ever.
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:44 PM ^
ever.
;-)
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:03 PM ^
That sucks, but at the same time I'm not going to go hide in bed with the blankets pulled over my head, either. We've been through this before. We'll be fine either way.
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:03 PM ^
Well. We're screwed

nuts and bolts, nuts and bolts, we got screwed!
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:03 PM ^
Never even felt like he was committed.
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:04 PM ^
*IF* M season as *special*,as most of us think?
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:04 PM ^
2018? As in, this is a 16 year old kid?
Yeah, nobody should be beholden to a decision they make at age 16. Good luck young man.

And I guess Jane Wyman is the first lady!

Why is everything heavy? Is there something wrong with the earth's gravitational field in your time?

He's just making official what we could always infer from him comments about other schools. Seems like he's probably still at least considering us going forward.

No big deal. Next.

Sometimes these decommits are the result of a dear John letter
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:17 PM ^
I thought we were going to be together forever. Then... about a week later, right out of the blue, she sends me a John Deere letter.
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:18 PM ^
Probably because he wasn't ranked highly in the early 2017 recruiting rankings........../s
I am interested to see if his stock suddenly rises within Ohio now that he is no longer a commit to ttun.
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:08 PM ^
i couldn't even tell u how many and who the commits are that we have in that class. I'll worry about that next year
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:50 PM ^
Same. No idea what position he plays or even what he's ranked. Also, best of luck at your junior and senior prom, kid.

Yeah, I am only surprised it took this long.
Just hoping against hope he ends up anywhere BUT tOSU.
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:11 PM ^
I was still holding out a little hope. Oh well. Good luck to Leonard.
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:12 PM ^
2018 is a long way off. If we have the season we should have, he'll be begging to be back in the class.
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:16 PM ^
We will be fine in 2018. No big deal.
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:17 PM ^
This is not shocking. OSU was late to the Leonard Taylor party but now they're interested. Seeing as he's an Ohio guy I really didn't see this one sticking.
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:17 PM ^
Do you think Harbaugh would welcome him back if that were the case?
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:19 PM ^
His choice to make. Not ours. Bummer, hope he comes back, but if not, best of luck to him.
On to the next one.

No worries. Come back if you want or we'll get somebody better. Either way, OK.
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:43 PM ^
mgoshocking!
August 22nd, 2016 at 4:49 PM ^
Football is the sport where coaching has much more to do with success than any other major sport. This is how an App State can beat us. This is how a WIsconsin team that has never had a recruiting class ranked higher than us could steamroll us like a hot knife through butter last time we played.
But now we have Harbaugh. While it sucks to see OSU line up talent or for us to lose talent, we're getting our fair share, and in the long run I am hopeful that Harbaugh > Meyer. Thus, posts like this don't bother me. Next.

Wow, throwing Carr under the bus.
