My only guess would be the coaches want him to gain all the weight he lost back, and recruit him for the oline.

He is giving up football and entering a monastery where he will spend the remainder of his life in reflective silence and prayer.

If he decides not to shock the world and keeps playing football, I hope he picks Michigan, but it seems like we miss out on so many of the high profile recruits who wait until the last minute.

The closer to home thing by going to auburn is not a valid argument. Ann Arbor is actually three miles closer to home for Mr. Green then Auburn. They are both over 600 miles from Derricks home.

but I'd be slightly more surprised if he chooses Michigan than if he goes elsewhere. And I wouldn't be shocked if the elsewhere is some place other than TN or AU.

If he ends up declining the opportunity to earn a degree from the University of Michigan, I'm not losing a moment of sleep over it.

Classic Michigan fan pessimism.  You must look to us Lions fans for tips on how to deal with the limitless disappointments of recruiting.  The key is not to set your expectations low, but rather to let them soar to unrivaled heights, so that when disappointment comes the freefall becomes a sweet release, a respite providing you energy to form your biased expectations again.  You must bask in your disappoitment.  Embrace it like an old friend.  Only then will you escape the fear of failure, and have the courage to climb again.  I have been to the mountaintop, for I have seen 0-16, and now I do not fear the hats.

"Michigan Defense" is dominating everything, in every aspect of life. That's a rough definition.
