Looks like it.

Who dat? Hope we're not getting catfished!

yes

Hello , Mr. Davis!

I can't find a Rivals, 247, ESPN or Scout page on him.  This seems a little odd to me.

What position is he?  Where is he from?

I just committed to Michigan too!!!

What is his rank?  I am having trouble finding anything about him on Scout, Rivals, or 247.

According to his Twitter he's from Ottawa Hills. Stats here: http://highschoolsports.mlive.com/player/rodney-davis/

I doubt this is legit, only thing I could find was 8 catches for 118 yds and 1 TD last season. This seems weird. http://highschoolsports.mlive.com/player/rodney-davis/

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BELIEVE ANYMORE DAMNIT TE'O YOU HAVE SHAKEN MY CONFIDENCE IN ALL THAT IS GOOD & REAL IN THIS WORLD

#blamesouthbend

that this broke on twitter before any pay site even picked up on it.

Did he commit to walk on?

I did a little twitter stalking, and he says he's transferring to GR Christian to play with Drake Harris. Maybe he got Drakes offer by mistake. Also, based off of his tweets, not sure the coaches would be interested. Lots of "shits" and N bombs!

Seems odd that on Twitter this afternoon he posted a photo of a U-M volleyball game when he was supposedly on his visit.

Maybe he only virtually committed and not physically?

I always said stars don't matter. The stars are like the points on Whose Line.

Its on the internet...so its real

I think all the super duper excitement over Rodney Davis is the reason Twitter's been down today. 

Guy has a picture of Michigan, MSU, Nebreska, Syracuse and Ball State letters on his twitter page.

got together and decided he was so good, he wasn't allowed to play football at the high school level anymore.

This must be the coaches response to losing out on Treadwell...... 

Given the timing of his offer, he must be so good..but i wonder just like you guys why no data per rivlas, scout....

I dont want him. Go away.

this is interesting.... 0_o

I don't think he knows you have to have a scholarship offer to commit.

I would also like to commit?

Class of 2014, not this year's class

Maybe the coaching staff got hammered tonight???

Its Dantonio, he's laying in the weeds waiting to tag Rodney with a schollie

C'mon guys..Y'all dont know Rodney ? Rodney Davis...stop playin..its Rodney

I can't quite place it, but I feel like one of the other Michigan athletes tweeted that volleyball picture just the other day...

Ended a month ago! He probably is just showing a picture of Manti's girlfriend!

He is saying it's a half scholarship, and he will be working out for the coaches next week.

Not too sure what a half scholarship really means ... they gonna give the other half to someone else?

Just from a quick search on mgoblue.com, it says the volleyball season ended in December... How could he have been at the volleyball game on his visit today? BUSTED

Edit: Dammit beaten by 2 min

C'mon..y'all dont know what a half scholarship is ? stop playin

Bababooey bababooey!!! Brian from mgoblogs penis!!!

near you: The Curious Case of Rodney Davis and the Half Scholarship

When I wake up I want this all to make sense.

Well there is only one question left...what happened to the other half ?

quite a few times to visit and got the offer from Hoke and Borges on Friday. He said he's going to be working out for the staff, and if all goes well he will receive a full scholarship.

Maybe he has misinterpreted what they said? It doesn't make sense that they would offer him a half scholarship.

I got offered a 1/20000000 scholarship. I committed. All I need to do is get some athletic ability, a cannon for an arm and run a sub 4.7.

Maybe this is how the B10 is going to up the SEC in recruiting numbers..See how A&M likes it when we have 56 kids on signing day but only 28 schollies given out..pure genius

Maybe the coaches meant he was getting a one or two year scholarship instead of a full four years guaranteed.

I think he meant to say that he's committed to working really hard to get an offer that he doesn't currently have.

Michael Ferns seems to think that this is for real.  He is exchanging numbers and conversing on twitter with him.  Seems legit!  

LOL

I'd this is legit, everyone chill out. The board reacted this way when Conley was offered and accepted last year, and look how he turned out. If the coaches offered this early, they must really like him.

I am gonna call BS on the kid having a offer. He tweeted a picture of him at a Michigan Volleyball game supposedly from today. Only problem with that is Volleyball ended in December.

For the record, this is one of my favorite threads in MGoBlog history.

I love you guys.  I am commiting to MGO.  THE BLOG, THE BLOG, THE BLOG... 

NOTHING IS REAL ANYMORE.

Spend a few hours playing stupid ass minecraft, and when I come back to reality I'm not so sure it's really reality.

This has to be the best Hello: thread ever.

will be the death of us. Coaches can't confirm a commitment at 2 in the morning, and insiders are sitting at their desks going "WTF?". I'm inclined to believe this isn't a commitment but a potential offer with the kid taking it the wrong way thinking he could commit.

Well, if he's truly a 2014 commit, hello! Rodney does have letters from Michigan, other B1G schools, and Hoke's alma mater, so there must have been some interest shown. However, stealing McGary's Instagram photo seems shady. And I would imagine that claiming to have a partial scholarship is a common lie told by walk-on players. Nevertheless, I'm looking forward to watching the highlight video that Rodney plans to post tomorrow. Also, I noticed someone sent him a tweet around 14 hours ago asking if he was going to Michigan. Rodney replied, "@jeeffrreeyy08 if I don't get a scholarship nowhere else." That made me pause.

so, is it actually U-M Dearborn, or is it Delaware, and he just got confused by the helmets?

It's 5:18, and the world continues to not make a bit of goddamn sense.

I just woke up.......I think.

Jesus.  Wake me up on fucking signing day...in February of 2014.

this is a lie. The kid said he was at a volleyball game yesterday, well volleyball season is over. this picture was from a previous time that he went to a vball game. we are going to find out that this was a hoax.

carry on

Alluding to this as a hoax on WTKA right now. This is fake. Good thread

The only 2 Rodney Davis I could find were a WR at East Mississippi CC and a LB from New Orleans. That can't be a good thing

On Recruiting Roundup, Sam Webb said Davis is NOT a commitment  

"Contestant Number 27.  Tell us YOUR name".

I'M Rodney Davis

Rodney you play too much

I love that nobody really bought into this..Dear Rodney you FAIL

I'm not sure what his motivation would be to do something like this. If nothing else, he filled up some message boards with his name.

TomVH also says Davis is not a commit.

Rodney Davis ‏@DreamTeam_RoRo1

of "have retweeter will travel" recruiting analysts around these days.

Edit: had to take a phone call, that post by Magnus was not there when I started. This is not a response to his post, or an indictment of his or other well-known contributors efforts.

Had my hopes up, but hopefully will still end up here!

If you click on this guy's twitter page, he posted a photo in December with the caption "Look what Michigan sent me!" - a New Era cap.  The photo was clearly taken in a store, as you can see other merchandise in the background.

Nice try, Ronaiah.

At least it didn't take people 3 years to figure out it was a fake.

Well, that is odd. Maybe he really did get an academic scholarship and being a football guy he used "committ" as a sort of funny way to say thats where he is going to be attending college? I don't know, I want to give the guy the benefit of the doubt....

Even guys who didn't really commit are de-committing! I'm concerned about Hoke's ability to close! PANIC!!11!

Rodney Davis ‏@DreamTeam_RoRo1

Sorry For The Misunderstanding I Was Only On A MLK Trip And Did NOT Commit To University Of Michigan
