Showed up for mine with a hangover and a broken number 2 pencil now I work in a warehouse where were you 10 years ago.

Ten years ago he was spiking your drinks and sabotaging your pencil.

I proctored your test and made sure you got the one with no right answers. The world needs warehouse workers too.

Please be more than just the ACT

Please be more to this story than just the ACT. Maybe he is seeing all the studs coming to visit on December 14th, and realizing that the clock is ticking...

I don't really understand
I don't really understand
I don't really understand this situation, but I suppose it will all shake out. Why would he come back to Hoke and basically beg for his spot back only to schedule visits to other schools? I have a feeling Hoke wouldn't have given him a second chance if his pitch was that he liked Michigan but still wanted to check out other schools.

Apparently the MSU beat

Apparently the MSU beat writer Matt Charbenau has sources that say its still between MSU and OSU. Which I can't believe because it makes zero sense.

That information was probably
That information was probably
That information was probably not far off as recently as a week ago. Since then, Dawson has reconnected with the Michigan coaches and in his own words, had a "heart to heart" with Hoke. Sure, he's not a UM commit yet, but not a far reach to see he is telegraphing how he feels about Michigan.
December 5th, 2012 at 10:12 PM |
That guy's an idiot. I think

That guy's an idiot. I think Dawson himself said MSU is trailing UM, OSU, and Alabama. (You know, real football programs.)

Why would you have a

Why would you have a heart-to-heart, if you didn't REALLY want to come back? He's going to take his time, but I think he's leaning hard to Michigan right now.
December 7th, 2012 at 12:47 AM |
Does he have a visit to
Does he have a visit to
Does he have a visit to Alabama in the works? Wouldn't make sense for him to say a school like MSU, which he has a visit scheduled to in January, would be behind a program that he didn't schedule a visit to.
*edit*
Not to mention that for the last couple of months it was made clear that staying close to him was very important to him, which would leave UM/MSU/OSU in the mix.
December 5th, 2012 at 10:19 PM |
Yeah, I heard that today
Yeah, I heard that today
He was arguing that State has made some serious inroads at Cass Tech because Finley didn't flip and because State leads for Dawson (which... yeah).

They also have Deon Drake.
They also have Deon Drake.
They also have Deon Drake. His logic is just bad. CR has a ton of talent and not everyone of those players can go to UM. When MSU starts to beat UM for the top guys they want, then we can have that argument. Is Iowa and Illinois making serious inroads to CT because they got some guys that UM want perusing?

Why would Hoke re-offer if Dawson is going to visit our rivals and supposedly keep them as favorites?
I suspect he has until Dec 14 at about 2pm to decide or the other recruits get the one-on-one chat with Hoke to close the void.

Aren't both the other OL visitors from the west coast. Seems like if Dawson was going to re-pull the trigger then it would be nice if he did it before those guys started their travels. A long way to come just to hear "sorry, no room."

December 5th, 2012 at 10:57 PM |
I agree it might be worth it
I agree it might be worth it
I agree it might be worth it because there is a chance for them. I also think that it would be crappy for them to step off the plane to find Dawson had recommitted.

My guess is the staff understood
My guess is the staff understood
his personal situation and told him to take his time this go around and make sure it is the right decision and if that means visiting other schools then so be it. Seems like the sensible approach for everyone to take.

My guess.
My guess.
My guess is that either Dawson has pretty much decided he wants to go to U-M and will recommit prior to 12/14 or if he doesn't, one of the other OL will commit on 12/14 and Dawson will be left out.
I'd be surprised if Dawson takes the other visits in January and a spot is still left at that point.

Seems like a strange reason to cancel...

Why would somebody schedule an official visit during their ACT? He had to have had the ACT scheduled before hand right?

If I wasn't married, I would be constantly double-booking myself. My wife is the only thing that keeps a sliver of order in my personal life.
Dawson is not married. Ergo, these things happen.

I suppose...

I just wonder if this is just a convenient excuse because he simply doesn't want to visit them anymore...Wishful thinking, i know.

It isn't a matter of the wives DEMANDING to control the calendar. I've always sucked at maintaining a social calendar, so my wife knows that if we don't want to regularly double-book ourselves, it's on her. She's also the rememberer of all important dates (family birthdays, etc.).
In exchange, I am the fixer of all broken things, the killer of all spiders and other insect life, and the lifter of all heavy objects.

She is referred to as The Social Coordinator.
We moved in March and I've built a shed, put a loft in the garage, put in a slave electrical panel in the garage, and started digging out the crawl space (that one may take years). The next project for me is putting in a closet in the rights in area over the garage and putting in a drain tray in there so the laundry can be upstairs.
She handles the calendar and buying gifts, I rebuild the house. Even when it doesn't need rebuilding.
