Avery Walls deciding today!
k guys so I'm pulling a Tom here, and just reminding everyone Avery Walls was supposed to be deciding today at his highschool at 9:40 (don't ask me when they decided on that time)
looks like it's between us and oregon, though most people say oregon has the upper hand.
go blue avery!
December 14th, 2010 at 6:46 AM ^
Crossing my fingers here, but my expectations aren't too high
December 14th, 2010 at 7:08 AM ^
Come and join the legends Avery.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:29 AM ^
He went there :(
December 14th, 2010 at 7:10 AM ^
Avery! Come to the blue!
December 14th, 2010 at 7:11 AM ^
Why did they decide on that time?
December 14th, 2010 at 7:49 AM ^
I don't know, but as someone pointed out in a previous thread, that's only 6:40 am in Oregon. Trying to convince myself that's a good sign.
December 14th, 2010 at 8:23 AM ^
LOL. That was me. I want Avery and I want to see Magnus poop in his pants.
December 14th, 2010 at 7:52 AM ^
it's after gym class and before first lunch period. Since his gym class lifts on tuesdays he'll have a mad pump going on for the cameras and journalistas...
December 14th, 2010 at 8:16 AM ^
to Ann Arbor leaves at 9:50!
December 14th, 2010 at 10:03 AM ^
And it's not Home Alone either. Times have changed. Got to give yourself more time to get through the airport, especially if he's starting from his high school.
December 14th, 2010 at 7:16 AM ^
I want him bad, but the timing suggests that he isn't coming
December 14th, 2010 at 9:00 AM ^
Could have been worse -- at least you didn't say he was yummy.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:27 AM ^
Haha, nice. I think it is a bit strange to say "I want him" about any teen boy. It needs to end.
December 14th, 2010 at 7:18 AM ^
that is undefeated, playing in the NC game, with a coach who's not going anywhere, versus committing to a program with a totally unsettled coaching situation, with a winning record and a bowl game spot for the first time in three years.
Decisions, decisions....
December 14th, 2010 at 7:28 AM ^
You are sayin' there's a chance!
December 14th, 2010 at 7:34 AM ^
But our helmets are very consistent....and have wings
December 14th, 2010 at 7:31 AM ^
This is not good news IMO that he is deciding today. Livin on hope right now.
December 14th, 2010 at 7:33 AM ^
I think the fact that TomVH and Sam Webb have no read on the guy is "very telling."
December 14th, 2010 at 7:33 AM ^
Like I said in another thread, I will poop my pants if Avery Walls chooses Michigan.
I even have a fresh pair of tighty whities with me today.
December 14th, 2010 at 7:50 AM ^
Since you brought an extra pair with you today....
December 14th, 2010 at 7:50 AM ^
Hoping you let 'er rip today, Magnus!
December 14th, 2010 at 9:22 AM ^
I always figured you were a tighty whitey guy.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:25 AM ^
It's creepy that you have ever considered my underwear selection.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:49 AM ^
Maybe its' because you are a football coach. Something about football coaches makes me personally think tighty whitey's. Just speaking for myself. Not that I have internal debates about it...or anything...
December 14th, 2010 at 12:21 PM ^
of a football coach, I always picture BIKE shorts, Polyester collared shirt, baseball hat with the white mesh in the back and wearing long socks (pulled up to the knees)....
December 14th, 2010 at 9:36 AM ^
Just in case. I'm wearing them myself - and I just did.
I'd embed the video, but can't get to it at work. Great skit.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:42 AM ^
Better put on a pair of these!
EDIT: Beat me to it, kind of.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:43 AM ^
December 14th, 2010 at 8:01 AM ^
December 14th, 2010 at 8:05 AM ^
I'm guessing that these 4 and 5 star recruits are not announcing a committment to Michigan until our coaching situation is official one way or the other. So even if it's not Oregon, there are probably other schools more in play than us right now. Unless this kid is an early enrollee, you might be left hoping that this is just a verbal and we can snake oil this kid in January. Just my two cents.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:07 AM ^
4 and 5 star recruits on defense mostly haven't been announcing Michigan even during the period absent the coaching uncertainty.
This would be a great pick up, but your route is probably more likely than him picking us now.
December 14th, 2010 at 11:15 AM ^
December 14th, 2010 at 8:14 AM ^
The only optimistic hope I have is that Oregon is to far away for his family to see him play ever...but that may be very optimistic,
December 14th, 2010 at 8:24 AM ^
Hoping for the best but prepared for the worst. I would love to see Walls in the winged helmet, but who knows if it will happen or not.
December 14th, 2010 at 8:36 AM ^
The twitter world is saying Cal.
December 14th, 2010 at 8:48 AM ^
Cal, but it will only be 6:40 AM in Cal. No one gets up that earlier out there.
On a serious note, if Cal gets him, it would be an amazing 2 days on defense. They would have pulled in 3 ESPN150 guys just on defense. Who is their DC?
December 14th, 2010 at 9:25 AM ^
Folks in Oregon must be so excited.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:30 AM ^
The Oregon folks think its Cal.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:30 AM ^
He's not coming here. We'll start getting quality defenders once Harbaugh is hired and they get rid of RR.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:34 AM ^
you sir, have a very different opinion than I of what Tom brings to the table at this website.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:36 AM ^
if we haven't heard from TomVH about Avery today then i don't think that is a good sign. plus his facebook page photos are him in Orgeon jersey's.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:40 AM ^
It's my birthday and this is all I want.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:48 AM ^
We all hope you get your wish...
December 14th, 2010 at 10:57 AM ^
Happy Birthday to you sir.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:46 AM ^
yes, we are just not posting it.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:46 AM ^
So its' 9:45 now. I don't even feel any anxiety. The same feeling I get before the Lions play the Pats. I hope the Lions win but I know they won't and therefore Apathy sets in.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:48 AM ^
It's not us. He hasn't contacted the coaches...
