Recent Crystal Ball Trends
Over on 247 there are some interesting trends regarding some fo the Michgian targets, some of which are higher on the want list.
The trends include Naseir Upshur to Florida State, Lavert Hill to Michigan, Tony Butler to Clemson, and a few predictions for Donnie Corely to Michigan. These could be because of some interesting turn of events regarding each of the recruitments, or it could just be analysts following the trends of their peers.
I want Upshur
Well he is a 17 year old boy, so this is highly awkward...
Uh, and MeanJoe07 is what, like a 8 year old (at most) Koala? Nothing wrong there.
Multiply by three for Koala years
You looked that up.
No most would say 5 if you looked it up. But I don't live in the wild so it's longer based on my calculations.
I want Upshur . . . to play for Michigan because I think he would be a nice addition to the Harbaugh offense which utlizes tight ends with a skill set such as his and this may result in touchdowns which may result in more wins which may result in me having an enjoyable time rooting for the team I grew up following. Sicko. However I will hump the leg of damn near anything, but that's neither here nor there.
but it's just not in the cards.
If it's not in the cards, maybe its in the crystal ball!?
See what I did there^.
I'd never know where my piss is landing.
like you care where it lands
My wife cares.
I think we have a legit shot at flipping Hill. And while Corley had a great visit recently, I think there is too much ground to make up for us. And by I, I mean the recruiting analysts.

Taking time off to mingle with the great unwashed I see...
/s
Negs for infromative nuggets extremely relevant to subject matter but contrary to desired outcome?
Am I correct in understanding that once a prospect has committed, no more Crystal Balls may be placed for that school? ...So for Hill, people can only pick a school other than PSU (such as Michigan.) No one can jump on the PSU bandwagon, but throwing a UofM pick in there might earn them a few points, if he flips, right?
Not that this means the M picks are meaningless, but I think the trend might hold more weight with the uncommitted prospects rather than the committed ones. Do I have the proper understanding here?

I believe that is right but he is visiting this weekend, and if the analysts think their is a chance of a flip than thats when i think they make a prediction. otherwise it is just a waste of time and they lose out in the long run on their credibility on site.
I never realized that Crystal Ballz were so strictly regulated.
Hey, this ain't the SEC.
There are rules.
Well, Khalid Kareem is still 77% for the good guys so maybe he is coming to Michigan. Crystal Balls! /s
what's a tosser?
I don't think you can directly, but you can click a person's name and then see their voting activity during the recent time span.
I didn't. Why are you negging me?
their own thread. From Twitter.
2015 RB Jordan Stevenson to Nebraska. Will get to face Wisconsin every year. Coincidence?
2016 OL Gavin Cupp got the OSU offer he wanted. Dantonio pulling his offer didn't matter, but he is the one who would have loved the early signing period, not Cupp.
You can keep your crystal balls.
...30 minutes before a commitment is announced. Other than that, it's all for watercooler talk.

They should only give points to the first guy to pick a school that was right. The rest just follow.
electronic market similar to the one at the University of Iowa or Intrade

We can buy or sell shares on whether a certain recuit will sign with UM or not. At least these crystal ball gurus will have to put their money where their mouth is.
