More Kalis Rumors

Submitted by the monarch on

I know this has been batted around a million times by now, but according to Scout, now it looks like Kalis' father is supporting him committing to UM right now, but others in his family are maintaining that he should prolong the process for one reason or another. I wish the kid luck in his decision-making and the process.

Bottom line:

GO BLUE MP3

by their stupidity that they take this crap so seriously! These are 17 and 18 year old kids who just want to play football and get a quality education.  Who are we as fans to deny them that? Let the kids play where they want to play and cheer on your players and your team.  No need to hate these kids because of where they want to go to school, just ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!

Talking rationally to the insane is a waste of time.

I think Kalis really wants to come here.  I think he is just working it out in his head.  I mean, tough switch, going from OSU to Michigan in a few weeks or months.  And he knows there will be consequences...unfair, but true.

Let the kid take his time.  I have a feeling Hoke is partnering with them, and giving them the space they need to make the right decision for everyone.

Thats what I love about the people on this board, classy no matter what happens for better or for worse. You never read nice classy things about others at other fan bases boards. GO BLUE!

make some sense that Kalis is Blue already, for the following uniformed reasons:

 

1.  Blake Bars commits shortly after the Kalis visit.  Was he under the impression that Kalis and Diamond were Blue and wanted to make sure that he was in the class?

2.  It was originally reported that Kalis wanted to visit Miami and Alabama.  After the visit, is there is any  mention of these schools?

3.  TVH tells us to buckle up.  Is there any other safety tips that he has ever posted on this Blog?

 

Wilson has a Blue coach.  ND has its safety.  Michigan has its greyshirt.  Can July 8th be anything other than Blue?

 

Wormley is Blue, just because he is.  Any reason that he is not?

 

Go Blue

After living in Columbus for 20 years, I've seen the worst of OSU fan's behavior many times over.  They just can't conceive that a teenager would spurn Ohio State, especially to attend and play for Michigan.  Many Ohio State fans really do hate Michigan - both the university and the state.  I tell them in Michigan the Buckeye-Wolverine rivalry is not quite as foolishly intense there as it is here.  Of course the coaches on both sides must stoke the rivalry to get the players up for the big game, but Ohio State fans here in Columbus are nuts when it comes to Michigan.  Fickell (sorry - I mean fickle) fans here do not care that Ohio State screwed itself out a pretty solid future.  They only care about hating all that is Michigan, and hating anyone who doesn't share their hate.  KK, if he in fact does choose Michigan, is going to get roasted, but the young man and his family just might be up to the challenge.  I certainly pray they are - if he does commit to us.

 I don't think it will get too much worse than it is now for the kid.  Osu fans might be crazy but most of them have short memories. They will only hate KK until the next person decommits, then all their hatred will be directed at that kid ( until the season starts).

 I remember watching Columbus T.V back when i lived there and about a week or 2 before the college season begins they run a piece on Michigan. They do this every week until "Michigan week" , then it switches to a story  2-3 times a day. In the Cooper era i used to mess with folks who would get pumped for the OSU - Michigan game. I'd tell them the Michigan fans don't really see them as a rival anymore because the other team has to win once in awhile....... Glad i live in Arizona now

I just came from that site and it was my first time ever on there.And it was just awful, purely evil fans and there exaggerations that they will still be big ten champs.I live in ohio and my friends tease me for liking michigan and I'm ok with that.I'm not okay with a bunch of cocky ass hillbillies running there mouths 24/7 and not caring about anyone elses opinion but there own.

That's something I don't really understand, I won't be reading them in the near future (except of course for schadenfreude) They have a post about how much our defense sucks and we're full of Vinopals (I personally don't think Vinopal played bad last year) and they fail to see that they don't have an experienced coach, experienced QB and they lost 8 or so players on defense from last year, I really hope they implode badly

Go to the bucknuts website. I've been frequenting that site now for a week and 1. I already feel dumber 2. A vast majority of the fans on that site are ignorant and intolerant - which makes trying to converse with them or have any sort of rational discussion with them essentially impossible and 3. Due to #'s 1 and 2 above, simply annoys me.  Hopefully Dunn will realize that O$U is going down and will join up in the blue revolution along with Strobel and Co.
