Possible Commitments next week!!!

Submitted by Dr.Jay on

Ok here's the deal, I pay for Rivals so I can choose to use the info I learn there if I please. If I saw you guys face to face I would share this info so why not do it over the internets, OK here goes, Mods delete this if need be

Of note to Michigan fans is that Detroit Southeastern linebacker Ed Davis has apparently already made his decision between the expected trio of Iowa, Michigan and Michigan State as early as the SMSB media day. (information available via FreeP story 5 days ago)

Also of note is that Madison Heights (Mich.) Madison athlete Valdez Showers could also make his college selection at the SMSB media day. If Showers does not make a commitment, he will likely be announcing a final group of favorites at the SMSB media day. Showers is on an unofficial visit to Michigan State today, which will probably be his last before next Wednesday.

I don't give a shit if the information is stolen.  It's not my website or my rivals subscription on the line.  However,  you probably could have completely avoided the issue by saying something such as ...

According to Rivals, Valdez Showers and Ed Davis are expected to announce their verbal commitments on August 4th, at SMSB media day

Link to article. Boom.

I do look forward to another thread about people bitching about stealing Rivals info though, those are entertaining, even if it's the second stolen info bitching thread of the day.

As long as you're not copy and pasting their information, I'm not sure there's much we do about it. If you add to the discussion of what they said, then there's nothing we probably would ever do about it.

I would always suggest you link to where you get your information, but not that it's behind the paywall. For example:

Fake Link Not Behind a Paywall ($)  ... that links to this thread for those curious.

The ($) indicates that it's a paid link.

I'm sure most people probably knew that, but might as well throw it out there in case they don't.

Yeah. Took me long enough to find the right topic. I would have done throwing a baseball or football, but then I'd have to get into rotation of the projectile and the application of torques by the fingers, and wind resistance, andall sorts of other crap. The original idea was HotWheels sets. Then came the problem of flexing track, finding frictional coefficients of the tires on the track, impulse forces by the acceleration wheels, friction between acceleration wheels and the cars, jump ramps, helixed loops, etc. Finding something simple enough that I could spew random stuff about is the hardest part.

Not sure how much of a factor Florida is for Valdez, but they did just add their 2nd CB to the class.  Who knows if they would take any more.  I realize we also have 2 CBs in this class, but I think our depth chart is a little more welcoming than theirs.

I am feeling lucky, i think we may be on the verge of a few commits. Other then the named recruits in this post. I am thinking Tony Posada,Chris Bryant, and Demetrius Hart. This class will fill up fast in the fall. After an A-Maizing year, a few suprises may drop in our lap in Februrary.

Someone is going to decide--NEXT WEEK (Possibly)! And, another guy is gonna decide too (possibly)! If not, he might do it sometime else (possibly)!

Wow! I PAY for this stuff (possibly)!!!
