Paywalled. Let the hand-wringing over "The Policy" recommence.

[Ed-Ace: This was debunked by Tremendous, Sam Webb, and TomVH. So... probably no need to worry, methinks.]

Poggi.

Per the above link, Poggi is schedule to visit Alabama. 

If true, this would be at least his 3rd visit to Alabama (first official), which, as I recall, was the other serious contender for his services, but he chose Michigan for "academics."

Weird

Weird because I talked with him shortly after his official to Ann Arbor a couple weeks ago with the rest of the class. He said he had a blast and that it reaffirmed why he chose Michigan in the first place. I'll try to get in contact with him to see if it's legit.

There's never really a legitimate reason to 'panic'...but this definitely never bodes well when one of our best recruits wants to visit a school that goes to the national championship every year so late in the process.

I think if there's one thing

I think if there's one thing we can count on, it's this -- there's no better coach in America at the heart-to-heart talk with a player than Hoke.

Hoke is no dummy.  He'll have that talk with Poggi to see what's going on in the kid's mind and heart.  Hoke has shown a remarkable ability to understand and connect with his players at that level.

My guess is Hoke would rather have a player who commits to Michigan fully rather than harbors a regret for not having explored more fully.  If Poggi has that lingering in his heart and he's honest with Hoke about it, my guess is Hoke tells Poggi to listen to his heart and do what he has to do.  But here's the key -- there'd likely be no malice in Hoke's words, tone or message.  That's why players respond to Hoke and are willing to go to such lengths for him

Apparently Poggi expressed interest in visiting Texas A&M a while back (before Dawson rejoined the class), but I doubt he visits now as they are pretty much full and expecting even more commits.

Well.... Since Poggi projected to 3-Tech or 5-Tech, do we go looking for someone else if he chooses to go the 'Bama route, or do we bank the scholarship?

BS?

What is this BS?  Witfong is reporting from the Army game.  Poggi is at the UA game.   I don't have a 247 subscription but you better have one and can show a Witfong quote or you're going to Bolivia.

Michigan offered DT Jaynard Bostwick last week. Wonder if the coaches knew, or this influenced Poggi.

Join me, on a trip down bad

Join me, on a trip down bad memory lane:

It went ok from what I'm hearing. I don't think Alabama fits his personality as well as Michigan does. I've said this before, but I think Michigan has a clear lead on him. Poggi is a smart kid, his parents also want him to go to a highly rated academic institution. In terms of ratings and football tradition, Michigan would be hard to beat Michigan for Poggi. If he does sign with the Tide, then Saban clearly sold him on his pro potential. -Roll Damn Tide, 4/30/2012

Wait and see...if he wants to visit other schools, let him, if he really wants to play at Michigan then that is where he will play. This certainly isn't the end of the world, even if he decommits, yeah, we'll lose a guy with some stars next to his name, but that just means it will give another guy an opportunity.

Btw, Derrick Green was answering some questions in a Rivals live chat. Highlights: Michigan has a small lead, best relationship with a coach is with Hoke, wants to major in sports psychology or business, plans on committing early this month, and the kicker is, will take more visits after committing. We'll see if that happens if he decides to commit to Michigan

At this point - why commit

At this point - why commit before taking more visits?  Why not take the visits and then commit?  Why wouldn't you wait until after all of your visits before making your commitment?

How many more ways can I ask the same question?  I'm that confused.

Why not go on his visits before he makes his commitment? Why not let the visits precede the commitment, instead of the other way around? Why not let the commitment come later in the chronological sequence than the visits?

So, if Poggi says he is all Blue, and Wiltfong

said it was "from Poggi" there must have been a clear misunderstanding on someone's part.

A quick follow-up comment; as long as commitments check with the coaches, they're allowed to take other EDIT: UNOFFICIAL visits. The Cass Tech kids visited Alabama this summer while traveling to a 7v7 tournament; this group included Jourdan Lewis.

HOKE = GENIUS

i believe hoke is displaying another level of genius by letting recruits visit other schools...particularly ALA.  he knows coach satan is leaving for the NFL..so no worry about OUR recruits switching commitments...howeva all the alabama recruits will be ripe for the picking!

I can only assume that as we say goodnight to our sweet prince Denard, Hoke is sending Poggi down to Tuscaloosa to remove one of Saban's teeth to later fashion it into the Pick of Destiny, with which he will summon all the finest recruits in the land with the world's most face-melting version of "The Victors", simultaneously banishing Special K to dubstep "Seven Nation Army" Hades-land forever.  

Or something like that.

We have a big, top class

Of course the "flippers" in the world of recruiting will target our players.  Poggi has some athleticism that we need at a 3-tech so hopefully he stays true to his word.

Still, the bigger question after the Outback is whether we will sign playmakers at DB and RB (and WR after Gallon).
