Think this drags out his recruitment even longer? He seems really excited about this offer.

Confirmation of visit:

18 year old getting offered by a Michigan Man who was in the national championship game last year.  Why wouldn't he consider?

You can only be considered a Michigan man if you formerly coached in Ohio.  Also you have to point at things.  You have to scowl at the sideline reporters asking those ridiculously stupid halftime questions.  You have to wear your shirts with the maximum of 2 buttons undone.  You can only tie your shoelaces with one hand, you can only wear a baseball type cap on the field, never outside of that environment.....

All joking aside, I write a lot of emails on my blackberry, some of which need to be pretty long, and it's a ton easier to do it on that than an iPhone.  I have an iPad and I still type things on the blackberry when it's more than a coupe sentences.  In fact, when I'm on the road and I'm making MGoBlog posts, I always do them on my blackberry because it's much quicker than the iPad.  And I have to imagine it's easier to type on an iPad than an iPhone.

I had a Blackberry 3 years ago (not poking fun) and it was significantly easier to write an email with than my current iPhone. However, *everything* else is significantly easier on my iPhone than the Blackberry.

If you are forced to often write long emails via your smart phone then I'll give you that one, the Blackberry is easier, but it still doesn't mean it's cool or justified.

That's fair, but I'm not sure how much my company cares about cool, they just want us to be able to do our jobs well.  And as cool as an iphone is, I don't think it does any business function easier than a blackberry.  At least my business functions, so I'd say it is justified.

That pretty much sums it up.  I went from Blackberry to iPhone one year ago and the only thing that suffered was email...and even that doesn't seem too much worse.

Though I will be looking Android next

This kid is going to mess around and lose his spot. Devon Allen is here this week at the BBQ, let LT keep messing around and watch his spot disappear too.

The way things are starting to shape up I wonder if we end up taking Treadwell and Allen. It's starting to look possible.

or he maybe just likes the recruiting process and the benefits that come with it?  I cant imagine any one of us would turn down an allexpense paid trip to LSU with five star treatment, right?

Well Allen and Green will be at the BBQ, not saying it will happen, but there is a chance those two take the final spots.

THere are 4 players but only two schollys.

I don't pay any attention to this. He clearly is a kid that likes the attention of the recruiting process. There is nothing wrong with that, but every fanbase involved is going to get jerked around by these will he-won't he updates.

That being said, he has been a U-M lean for a long time. Wake me up when he commits.

was that he was going to take a while to decide and sort through his options.  Only because a few Michigan 'insiders' got overly confident and their sentiments were taken too seriously, did Michigan fans get disappointed.

Treadwell, in comparison, has been much more positive about Michigan, but has been clear that he hasn't come to a decision and might not for a while (though there seemed to be several times where he sounded close).

Neither of these kids have done anything wrong.
