Michigan Re-offers Dawson

...and just my uneducated opinion,  I really think that we will get treadwell in the end.  Ty Isaac made his choice, and we seem to be in a really great position with Derrick Green right now.  I think that we could get McQuay too.  I think we realistcly could end up with two of the three( Treadwell, Green, McQuay).  We even could take them all.  But realistically i think we'll end up with two.

If he was really serious about wanting to be "back in the UM family" he would have re-committed. He's still taking visits to Alabama, OSU, and MSU, and unless he's given a silent re-verbal to Hoke, I think this is smoke with no fire. On top of that, if Hunt or Lacey commit before that, there won't be room for Dawson unless there's attrition elsewhere.

For all you nautical types.

I think the biggest competition is Sparty. He said Florida was out because of distance from his family, so I'd have to say Alabama wouldn't be a serious destination due to the same issue. I think he's a kid that's been through A LOT in a short period of time, and it has taken its toll on him. I think he and his family want to be back in the UM family, it just took a route none of us expected.

One thing I just thought of is that supposedly Hoke basically said "If you want to be at UM we have room for you."  However, Dawson didn't re-commit.  So, although we have room for him right now, what if any number of other guys commits and accepts their offer.  Do you still have room for him then?  After re-thinking this it kinda surprises me that he didn't re-commit if he wants to be here because the offer may not last long.

I would have to surmise we are in the driver's seat. If he doesn't commit by the 14th of december, though, there will not be a spot for him because I can see either lacy or hunt commiting on that day when they visit.
