Reon Dawson an Ohio fan

Reon Dawson a “Michigan Man?” Say what?

“I never did see that,” said the Trotwood-Madison High School senior cornerback who “flipped” from a verbal commitment to Illinois to eventually sign with Michigan on Wednesday.

“Until I die, I’m gonna be a Buckeye fan even though I’m going (to Michigan). When we play (OSU) I’m gonna still bring my ‘A’ game. But, I love Ohio State.”

I hope it's not true. If it is... um, this is awkward.

And what's up with your name??? You have got some serious issues, brother. You must be MGrowOld's alter ego.

 

Edit: Wow.  All of the posts above mine were wiped out?   Now it looks like I'm asking about the OP's screen name.  

Anyway, I'm sure this kid will feel much differently after four or five years at The University of Michigan.  Up until this point in his life, OSU is probably the only thing he's known.   

Good luck to him.

I know where he's coming from. When I was being recruited in HS, I had made up my mind that if I didn't recieve an offer from a D1 school or if I got a B1G offer from a school other than Michigan, I was goin' to walk on at either little brother or tOSU or take the B1G offer from where ever as out of state tuition for Michigan was FAR too expensive for my parents (a cop and a mail carrier) to afford. I'd have simply packed away my Michigan gear until graduation and unpacked it after. Luckily, I had a few MAC offers and it never came to that, plus, We (BGSU) got to be a MACrifice in 2000 and play in the Big House, so I kinda got my cake and could eat it too :-P

So much that he's an Ohio fan. I do care however if he turns out I be a superstar that all you will hear on TV is announcers and fans saying, "the only reason he plays for Michigan is because we didn't want him" Everytime Vitale mentions Burkes name he includes that he wanted to go to Ohio but they didn't recruit him. Makes me want to barf.

Every time I hear an announcer say that Burke wanted to go to Ohio but they didn't recruit him, it makes me laugh, because I know it really pisses off everyone in the "worst state ever."  When Burke was raining crucial buckets against Ohio, and basically refusing to lose to them at home, I thought it sounded perfect.

They did recruit Trotwood this year.  It just so happens that they got Cam Burrows instead.

Yikes! This just proves Hoke hasn't turned the tide, can't recruit and the number of Michigan jerseys sold in Ohio is plummeting.

Until he graduates and escapes from Ohio, he pretty much has to say he is an Ohio fan.  If he is telling the truth, it will take one game against Ohio to change his mind.
