I hope this is finally "put to bed". I truely believe this played out in UM favor. Weber has demonstrated since the beginning that he wanted to be "the center" of attention. He initially didn't give UM much consideration, he was leaning to MSU, he then changed directions and began to foster some interest in UM, ultimately pledging to the school. He then decommitted while sitting in the Big House during the Penn St game. He found it necessary to jump on the OSU bandwagon.

He then felt the need to let everyone know he was "solid" to OSU but would speak with JH to be nice. He wanted to make sure he appeared to "hold all the leverage". Well in the end it came back to haunt him. He then tried to make it look like JH and UM misled him.

I hope he goes to OSU and gets first hand experience how Urbz does things. If he isn't able to earn significant playing time, he will be forced out of the program early. The facts are there since OSU seems to have room for 25 plus recruits every year.

The 3* from Fla, Hidgon, will do very well in A2 and he didn't need to try to make himself the main attraction in the process.

Weber is now a Buckeye and he needs to be viewed like the rest of them!! They are all the "enemy" now.

 

Go Blue!! Kick some Buckeye ASS

The guy picked the school that he thought he would win championships at. I don't hate him for that. I think he has the skill to be a solid back, but nothing outrageously special. The only thing he did that was questionable was blame Higdon for not choosing michigan (which seemed like a validation for the decision he already made).

Now that the Weber saga is apparently a closed case, as it were, we'll be policing the Weber news a little more closely, I think (a few extraneous threads have been taken down in the last week, in fairness). In essence, that means anything which has already been covered or indeed any thread which does not do something like outline a major on-field achievement or some incident of special note probably won't survive for long. It's time to let this one pass quietly into MGoHistory, I would say.

The fact that he had to take to twitter because a bunch of grown men were freaking about the shirt he wore to the gym is ludicrous.

Oh my god, he's wearing a spongebob t-shirt, he must be committing to attend a pineapple under the sea!

...We've got Isaac, a 5*/#1 RB recruit in the country, another 4* workhorse and an underrated 2* that has proved himself already.

We're not hurting for RBs next season.

If Harbaugh just goes out and gets 1-2 big time prospects in 2016, this will just be a blip on the radar and we'll actually be better off because we'll get an extra year from the 2016 kids.

Freshman RBs  can come in and compete right away.

If it's 2016 you're talking about kids who can come in and redshirt while seniors Green and Smith hold it down with a RS Junior Ty Isaac. Then in 2017 you have RS freshman ready to go with Isaac AND any true freshman Harbaugh puts in the mix.

And that's completely leaving Higdon out of the mix - which in itself is completely out of line.

I have no reason to talk...I'm actually the WORST.

But damn, when you know the entire recruiting world is looking at you and not just a bunch of MGoBloggers (as is the case with me)...you may want to proofread your message to the masses.

Did you see his mothers "letter"? She should of probably had someone proofread that gem before attempting to blast Michigan's fan base. It was embarrassing.
