Now, you may be asking yourself if this picture is worthy of its own thread. The answer? Yes, yes it is.
...says Denzel Valentine of Big Ten Tourney favorite MSU, which is 5-7 in its last 12 games. Cumong, man.

Derrick Green Picture With The Other Michigan Commits

Nice smile
This must mean he's going to commit, probably by Sunday. The worst part about these All-star games is for the next week we have to hear about who is wearing a Michigan hat, or who has a Michigan shirt, or who is rooming with who.

This doesn't mean anything...
He could commit after the game, and then he could not... Green has been very friendly with basically all the players at all the schools (not a criticism, seems like his personality). Don't read that much into a picture. IMO he is a kid who wants to stretch this out, I would not doubt new schools getting mentioned now that some Bowl performances are clarifying depth for next year (and yes, that does bode well for us too)

Also (as Mark from Tremendous pointed out) it looks like Jourdan Lewis has gotten taller.

That's what I thought.
That's what I thought. Thomas is like 6'1"-6'2" and Green is supposed to be 6'. I suppose it's not uncommon for a 17 year old high-schooler to go through a growth spurt.

How do you guys
How do you guys know everyone else hasn't gotten shorter?
January 2nd, 2013 at 3:07 PM
#13
Why do we think he got
Why do we think he got taller? He's listed at 5'11", and considering Thomas and Green are 6'1" and 6'0" respectively, that's probably about right. I'd say Lewis looks at let 2 and maybe 3 inches shorter than Dymonte.

I'm not too concerned about
I'm not too concerned about his height, but Lewis is also the closest one to the camera. Not only is he standing in front of the other guys (except Fox, who is also turned inward), but the shot is being taken angled from Lewis's side, not head-on. Maybe he got taller, but it's probably partly an illusion.

For what it's worth
The caption under the picture on rivals said "Still uncommitted?".

I like the one Dymonte posted a lot better - it says simply "Michigan Men".

Interestingly enough
The Rivals Auburn guy claims that Green was a silent commit to Auburn before the staff got fired.

Clowney was a silent here until RR got fired.

I think Auburn and Tennessee were right there until the coaches got fired. Now I think we're the definitely leader and he'll be "Blue" in the next couple of weeks.
Question is, are these games having an affect on any other players?

He just looks mean. Can't wait to see him play for blue.

30 seconds before that picture
"Hey, come take this picture with us. It will drive the Michigan blogs nuts. It's just too funny, man."
January 2nd, 2013 at 2:42 PM
#26
Funny thing is...
This is truer than most people realize.
I don't know if it's the blogs, but definitely their Twitter accounts. Recruits do and say stuff all the time just to light the fire and watch people go crazy.
I'm sure we'll get a picture of Treadwell in a Michigan hat standing next to Dawson and Morris in the coming days.

Can you blame them?
If I were in their shoes, I would screw with folks like us all the time. These are, after all, teenagers making a huge decision. Imagine having strangers calling you all the time to ask you to tell them your thoughts on this huge decision. Then having hundreds of other strangers freaking out at every twitter, picture, and hat you wore? Etc.

I predict the NCAA will be making a visit to Ole Miss in a few years to investigate recruiting improprieties. No way a consistently awful program like that can just suddenly start landing elite recruits without "stuff" going on.

I wonder if any pics for the Under Armour Game will be getting posted soon? I am curious to see reaction from Treadwell (who took Mich out of his top 3) getting the ball from Morris. I hope he sees our group of guys and changes his mind about Michigan. We were so close to getting him.
