Poggi Official Visit to Bama per 247
January 25th, 2013 at 5:10 PM ^
Do the coaches even know?
January 25th, 2013 at 5:13 PM ^
I didn't even know unless its what I read earlier today in the thread 5 below this one
January 25th, 2013 at 5:17 PM ^
I admit I didn't check out that topic and didn't even see it but this topic confirms the rumor so sorry for the double post.
January 25th, 2013 at 5:43 PM ^
I sure do hope they keep up with MGoBlog so you guys can keep them in the loop.
January 25th, 2013 at 5:45 PM ^
How do you think they developed their depth charts the past couple seasons? By reading Emo's posts.
January 25th, 2013 at 5:12 PM ^
This is weird.
January 25th, 2013 at 5:15 PM ^
Yeah it is. VH said the Poggi's dad doesn't comment about stuff like this so it's difficult to establish the voracity of rumors. Like how did 247 confirm?
January 25th, 2013 at 5:25 PM ^
These damn upstarts should cease publishing stuff of unverified voracity. It's giving reputable child-stalking outlets a bad name!
January 26th, 2013 at 9:31 AM ^
Agreed. Is anyone besides 247 reporting this?
January 25th, 2013 at 5:14 PM ^
Dont think this is a big deal..Likely a mechanism for getting a free trip to Bama. But honestly, if we lose him we lose him. F*ck it. We will all survive.
January 25th, 2013 at 5:23 PM ^
Katherine Webb is like Bama's Snoop Dogg.
January 25th, 2013 at 5:47 PM ^
Or Michigan's Kate Upton?
January 25th, 2013 at 5:17 PM ^
Pretty please?
January 25th, 2013 at 5:34 PM ^
can we lower the necessary point total to neg posts too?
January 25th, 2013 at 5:40 PM ^
other than it's bad news?
January 25th, 2013 at 7:04 PM ^
The only thing is the lack of links, I understand he said 247 and I can look it up. But that's all I see wrong with this post.
January 25th, 2013 at 7:09 PM ^
but it still had my "rumor" tag fixed to it at the time he posted. I'm assuming some people didn't see the need for the second thread, and that's partly to blame for the negs. I had thought about consolidating it, but the traffic to the other one has slowed down considerably and they are two distinctly different topics: one was a rumor early in the day, this is news confirming that he landed in Tuscaloosa.
January 25th, 2013 at 5:16 PM ^
If they want to visit officially, why not just tell the M coaches what it really is? There is no point of debunking in the first place.
January 25th, 2013 at 5:20 PM ^
VH greater than 247
I'll await TVH confirmation
January 25th, 2013 at 5:22 PM ^
Hopefully their campus is overrun by undersexed, angry male skunks this weekend.
January 25th, 2013 at 5:35 PM ^
It's the same during the weekdays as well
January 25th, 2013 at 5:27 PM ^
PANIC. PANIC. ANARCHY IN THE STREETS. WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE.
Seriously, if he stays, fantastic. If he goes to Alabama, we'll get along just fine without him.
January 25th, 2013 at 5:31 PM ^
Twice in one day he must be pretty good to occupy two officials from bama.
January 25th, 2013 at 5:33 PM ^
This does not make me happy, happy, happy.
January 25th, 2013 at 5:35 PM ^
Dang technolgy.
January 25th, 2013 at 5:38 PM ^
So is he a decommit now?
January 25th, 2013 at 5:54 PM ^
no he's not a decommitt, if the rumors true he's an alabama committ. just keeping it real.
January 25th, 2013 at 6:48 PM ^
Official visits after declaring bother me a little, but at the same time, I don't care a lot. I want guys that are "all in." If a kid has an inkling of whether or not they want to go to Michigan, it's a problem.
Maybe too much pressure to declare early?
January 25th, 2013 at 5:57 PM ^
Where is smoke....there is MOST always fire!! Just cause his dad a coach doesn't make him a saint....
January 25th, 2013 at 6:17 PM ^
You ever hear of smoke machines? BOOM DEBUNKED!
January 25th, 2013 at 6:59 PM ^
Is no smoke, is co2 vapor. BOOM. SCIENCED!
January 25th, 2013 at 5:59 PM ^
Biff poggi @BiffPoggi
Until the #Big 10 learns to recruit like the #SEC it will be an irrelevant conference. Good news for #Ohio State
January 25th, 2013 at 6:01 PM ^
Is that seriously Poggi's dad? If so, then why even let your son commit to UM?
January 25th, 2013 at 6:12 PM ^
fwiw the Gilman twitter retweets Biff's account
January 25th, 2013 at 6:17 PM ^
Well reading his tweets, he seems like he wouldn't want any of his players outside the SEC. Geez...
January 25th, 2013 at 6:02 PM ^
When was that posted?
January 25th, 2013 at 6:05 PM ^
Two days ago. And if it really is the actual Biff Poggi, he's got nothing but good things to say about the SEC.
January 25th, 2013 at 6:10 PM ^
Why? Did they build him a church?
January 25th, 2013 at 6:22 PM ^
On Jan 12 he tweeted about recruiting being a continuous process with the hash tag #sec. Perhaps he felt that Bama was paying his son a little more attention down the stretch? Just speculation, but this one would hurt...
January 25th, 2013 at 6:26 PM ^
It certainly doesn't sound like something the father of a kid heading to Michigan would say.
And this shows poorly on Poggi's dad. You'd think he would want his son to go to the school that was the best for him, not which one recruited him the most.
January 25th, 2013 at 6:26 PM ^
Could this be another Spielman where a kids dad is basically making him go somewhere other than UM? I mean this whole thing kind of goes opposite everything Henry himself has said about recruiting.
January 26th, 2013 at 12:56 AM ^
I'm sure Alabama was paying his son A LOT more
January 25th, 2013 at 6:11 PM ^
If that really is his dad's twitter account, he should be careful. He's the head coach of a high school that has started to churn out a few good players lately. You don't want to piss off an entire conference - not all of his kids can go to the SEC or Ohio. You don't want to piss off an entire conference.
January 25th, 2013 at 6:16 PM ^
Don't really think a guy named Biff cares who he pisses off.
January 25th, 2013 at 6:32 PM ^
Yeah, well, why doesn't Biff make like a tree....and get the hell out of here?
January 25th, 2013 at 7:01 PM ^
"Make like a tree and leave"!
January 25th, 2013 at 7:29 PM ^
You need to reacquaint yourself with back to the future, dont remember if its 1 or 2.
January 25th, 2013 at 7:31 PM ^
corrects Young Biff with the above quote in two, with some added namecalling tacked on the end.
January 25th, 2013 at 9:55 PM ^
Nice one butthead.
Yeah... You read that in biffs voice.
