that this had something to do with the Mattison faux pas?
January 27th, 2015 at 10:14 PM ^
Did not see that one coming. Best of luck to him.
January 27th, 2015 at 10:32 PM ^
What about his ridiculously premature commitment to a staff that has since been fired would make you think he was solid?
January 27th, 2015 at 11:00 PM ^
Exactly what I was thinking. I was surprised this didn't happen sooner, but I guess the respective sides wanted to meet first before making any rash decisions.
January 27th, 2015 at 11:01 PM ^
Zing!
January 27th, 2015 at 10:11 PM ^
Interesting..best of luck to the kid.
January 27th, 2015 at 10:12 PM ^
Bring on Costello.
January 27th, 2015 at 10:40 PM ^
Or Eason

January 27th, 2015 at 10:57 PM ^
Nice.
January 27th, 2015 at 10:12 PM ^
Bummer.
January 27th, 2015 at 10:30 PM ^
I am guessing this has more to do with Michigan pursuing Costello and Eason than DeWeaver wanting to pursue another school.
January 27th, 2015 at 10:51 PM ^
I picture it sort of like Michael telling Fredo that he was no longer a part of the family business. Except Messiah doesn't have to go fishing on a boat on a lake.
January 28th, 2015 at 12:47 AM ^
Bummer... that was such a great scene
January 28th, 2015 at 9:02 AM ^
We should not be surprised that there are some recruiting changes with Harbaugh coming in. Harbaugh is not Hoke. Harbauigh is going to be interested in some different recruits, and some recruits that were interested in Hoke will not be comfortable with Harbaugh and his direction for their position.
January 27th, 2015 at 10:12 PM ^
Damn with a name like that he's destined for greatness..
I has sads
:(
January 27th, 2015 at 11:00 PM ^
This is one of the few times I actually wish a decommit well
January 28th, 2015 at 11:27 AM ^
In the absence of outight shitty behavior of some kind or other, when do you not wish 17-year-old children well in the biggest decision of their lives to date?
January 28th, 2015 at 8:24 AM ^
Agreed. I'm concerned he will end up at Notre Dame. With Touchdown Jesus and him at quarterback -- NBC will pee their pants.
January 27th, 2015 at 10:12 PM ^
with this. We will have better options in 2016.
January 28th, 2015 at 12:48 AM ^
For a minute there I thought you might not be TOO concerned, but I guess that's not the case
January 27th, 2015 at 10:12 PM ^
Opens the door for a top 2016 qb to come to Michigan. I think it's a mistake as Harbaugh is the top QB mind in the country period but the competition will be stiff. Best of luck to Messiah.
January 27th, 2015 at 10:22 PM ^
made him go away. . .
which is fine. But he knows who JH is, I can't believe that he thinks he won't learn from Harbaugh's tutelage.
January 27th, 2015 at 11:15 PM ^
that dude always seemed juiced to enroll at michigan and i doubt his enthusiasm wavered much given the programs current aura. im guessing harbaugh gave the kid his honest opinion and his vision for qb position at michigan moving forward and they agreed to mutually part ways.
color me shocked if the dude told harbaugh no thanks, he sees greener pastures elsewhere. the kids not an elite qb and frankly he was lucky to receive an offer so early from hoke. maybe he wouldve competed and started on hokes michigan teams but harbaughs teams will be a different animal. best of luck to the kid though, seems like a solid cat
January 28th, 2015 at 12:49 AM ^
^^^ this... nicely put
January 28th, 2015 at 1:06 AM ^
He's a top #10 QB pro style ranked for the '16 class.
Lol okkkkk
January 28th, 2015 at 8:12 AM ^
Some of you people need to stop looking at fricken rankings and form you own opinions. LOOK AT THE FILM YOURSELF!
This is not a big loss my no means. It does not take Tom Brady to look at his clips and wonder why he was offered in the first place.
January 28th, 2015 at 9:51 AM ^
...and I've never felt his film does him justice. I think his head's going to take him farther than a lot of QB's who show more physical talent on film.
January 28th, 2015 at 10:05 AM ^
I would bet money by your own genius film analysis you'd not have thought him worthy of coming to Michigan or getting drafted in the NFL either.
January 28th, 2015 at 12:36 PM ^
or maybe he read the writing on the wall with us taking two 4-star QBs in this class and looking at a few other 5-stars in the next. He may prefer to go somewhere where eventual playing time is more of a thing.
January 27th, 2015 at 10:13 PM ^
Would think this means we are going after some of the bigger fish out there in the 2016 class as has been reported, best of luck to the kid, I was really looking forward to all the Messiah word play.
January 28th, 2015 at 12:02 PM ^
Really liked DeWeaver.
Sure hope he doesn't end up at Staee, but I wish him well wherever he decides to play.
January 27th, 2015 at 10:13 PM ^
All will be well when Jimmy flips Jacob Eason from Georgia.

January 27th, 2015 at 10:19 PM ^
He's beyond solid to Georgia. Not saying Harbaugh isn't the man, but as far as commitment goes, Eason is as solid as they come.
January 27th, 2015 at 10:23 PM ^
As solid as Zach Gentry?
January 27th, 2015 at 10:39 PM ^
Way more solid than gentry.
January 27th, 2015 at 11:12 PM ^
The OC that has been recruiting him to UGA is no longer there, right? If he's so firm with UGA, why is he meeting with Harbaugh and others?
He may very well end up at UGA, but it doesn't mean he's so solid right now.
EDIT: re: Bobo, it's already been mentioned below. My bad.
January 27th, 2015 at 11:01 PM ^
When Harbaugh visits, he will be as solid as a rock of jello.
January 27th, 2015 at 10:24 PM ^
You should tell coach not to waste his time.
"@UGAfootballLive: Jim Harbaugh is flying in to talk to #UGA commit and Lake Stevens QB Jacob Eason. Currently the top overall prospect in c/o. Back off Jim!"

He's not wasting his time, but he has a lot of catching up to do. I'd be ecstatic in getting Eason as he is the best hs QB I've seen in quite some time.
January 27th, 2015 at 10:32 PM ^
Eason may be solid to GA now, but never say never. A lot can happen between now and 2016 NSD.
January 27th, 2015 at 10:35 PM ^
As solid as they come? Georgia just lost their OC and hired Brian Schottenheimer, who has helmed some of the worst offenses in the NFL. Even without that development, I don't think you can call any out-of-state, non-legacy verbal commitment during a junior year "as solid as they come."
January 27th, 2015 at 10:45 PM ^
Based on all of his comments he is the definition of solid to Georgia at this point. I am a begging man,perhaps you'd like to put some scratch on this and we can re-visit this at another time.
I'd take Eason in a second, but at this point in time I'm not getting my hopes up.
January 27th, 2015 at 10:54 PM ^
And usually most of these recruiting stories are always slanted to the school site that is doing the interview. At this time last year, Ricky Town was committed to Alabama, Blake Barnett was committed to ND, Jarrett Stidham was committed to Texas Tech, and Brandon Wimbush was committed to Penn State. All were saying they were not wavering in their commitments. Look where they are now. Same with Kyler Murray who may flip from Texas A&M to Texas at the last minute. It's high school kids facing an extremely tough life choice: many of them will grow during a year or two and change their mind.
January 27th, 2015 at 11:07 PM ^
Sure. What odds are we talking? Solid as they come - I'm thinking you're giving very good odds, yes?
January 28th, 2015 at 12:24 AM ^
Fifty dollars right now that he doesn't end up at Georgia.
