Minny is a good school, and I am glad to see that this kid gets a Big Ten scholarship. Good luck, young man!

Eh, I think Kill has them on an upward swing, the freshman QB is impressive and Kill's offense at NIU was deadly with a mobile QB, could be a great fit for Berkley, plus this way he doesn't have to deal with the wrath of the AIRBHG or deal with the tire fire that is the Cal team right now.
Chaos is found in greatest abundance wherever order is being sought. It always defeats order because it is better organized.

I understand the available numbers for scholarships was at least partially responsible for the non-offer, but I'm still disappointed Berkeley won't be wearing the right kind of block M. Braylon has no doubt acted like a jerk in the past, but I don't fault him for his response here. Most people would have the same reaction when it comes to family.

I get sticking up for your family and all, but why do it at the expense of your alma mater? Either he is good enough to earn a scholarship from Michigan or he is not. I think Hoke has earned a little bit of deference on this.

in my experience, it's normal for students at small branch campuses to cheer for the main campus' sports teams... ie. at UM-Dearborn, they (used to?) do a Go Blue friday thing where people wear Michigan gear, etc.
so what I'm wondering is... at IUPUFW, do people go for IU or Purdue or some unholy combination of both?

As for Braylon, really classy. If your little brother is such a "beast", how come his best offer is Minnesota?

that's the way i've always
that's the way i've always felt about all this, if this kid was a 5* and he actually merited an offer i don't think it would have been an issue. it just felt like braylon was trying to strongarm the coaches into getting his little brother into a school above his level of play would warrant.

Nepostism: Supporting your family on the internet usually shows loyalty, which is a good thing, except for when you get crass, vengeful and bitter on their behalf.
Nepotism, on the other hand, can mean you may have to fire your father after hiring him.

Getting a B1G scholarship is nothing to downgrade. As for Braylon I think he has a point, Michigan preaches family, and there is a solid connection from Braylon and his dad. I wonder if Michigan offered a prefered walk-on if Berkley would have taken it... Seems like no offer was out there at all.

Joe Montana's son Nate (who we're in contact with) had to walk on at ND. Braylon was huge for Michigan and had great success in 2A and in the NFL, but not like Joe Montana. Of course, Bray could've bought his bro an education and he could've walked on and earned a spot if it was so important to him.

The Montana that UM is reportedly in contact with is Nick Montana, who was highly-recruited to Washington. He is not the same person as Nate Montana, who walked on at ND.
Your point is still well-taken, however.

You are right
You are right
I think Michigan should have at least offered a preferred walk-on spot to him (if they didn't already). But from the sound of how salty Bralyon is, I'm almost glad we didn't. If we had to offer every single kid and/or brother of a great player, we would be full of very average players.

Unless Braylon deleted some
Unless Braylon deleted some
Unless Braylon deleted some of those tweets, they really aren't that bad. Plus, he tweeted this to follow up: "Don't take my tweets the wrong way Michigan fans and alums I'm still a proud supporter and love Michigan. Just saying my brother is a beast."
There are a lot of reasons to be irritated by Braylon. Him advocating for his brother is way, way down on that list for me. Blood runs thick.
November 30th, 2012 at 12:56 AM |
Wow.
Wow.
I'm surprised by his response. I didn't think he was going to be that upset over Michigan not offering his brother. I understand the family tie and all but that's just not how it works. And it's "Maize"not "maze" Braylon.
