Schadenfreude over Donovan Peoples-Jones

Ohio State (before announcement):

TTUN fans are going to be so crushed when Donovan Peoples Jones picks Ohio State over their slimy piece of shit coach. Buckeyes are TRUE HEROES!
Hey DPJ, you wanna play on a losing team for your entire college career or do you want to win championships? If you're a champ come to Columbus
Statistically Urban Meyer has NEVER lost a recruit when he has sent BOTH Zach Smith and Kerry Coombs on an in-home visit. Meyer followed up to seal the deal himself. DPJ to tOSU.
This kid is a freakin stud! GO BUCKEYES! Get 'im Urbz!
Donovan Peoples-Jones Latest in Cass Tech (MI) Recruits Who Could Pick Ohio State Over Michigan
Mikey Weber in this kids ear guys, he gonna be a Buckeye!
Honestly I can't see how DPJ picks Michigan after watching The Game #GoBuckeyes
Urban Meyer > Jim Harbaugh. Take note DPJ
Donovan Peoples Jones a "lock" to TTUN? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
We be tearin into that Cass Tech pipeline bruh
Come to Ohio State, become a champion. Go to Michigan, suck balls. DPJ will make the right choice I'm sure
Good Lord those fucking Michigan fans, arrogant af, what the fcuk you gonna do when DPJ picks OSU??
Urban going pull court press on Donovan Peoples Jones. I like our chances. #GoBucks
Man those crystal ball bitches are going to be scratching their heads on this one. DPJ to OSU #bookit
Just watched Donovan Peoples Jones' highlights. Christ Almighty this kid is good
Don't forget guys, Mike Weber was considered a lock to UM too...
Kerry Coombs better than any recruiter ttun got, FACT. Donovan Peoples-Jones be wearin scarlet n gray in 2017
God I love all this "DPJ to Michigan" talk. Going to be THAT MUCH SWEETER when he picks the Buckeyes
hahahahahahahaha you're not getting dpj harbaugh, sorry bruh
Donovan Peoples-Jones May Just be the Feather in Urban Meyer's Cap
Apparently DPJ watched The Game said it "changed things." LMAO LOVE IT BABY GO BUCKEYES
Michigan fans of course believe they will get Donovan Peoples-Jones. Uh huh ok bro #GameOn
Dude I am recording DPJ's announcement just to make a gif of him putting on an Ohio State cap to troll those Michigan blogs
Ace Anbender crystal balls DPJ to Michigan. Ooooh yeah let's hear what you think, bitch
I am actually excited about seeing this
Buckeye hat on the far right, makes for a bigger surprise!
Another 5-star for the Buckeyes?? DPJ comin!
I think what it really comes down to is Urban Meyer vs Jim Harbaugh on the recruiting trail, and what Meyer has shown repeatedly is that he can beat Harbaugh on a consistent basis. There is no doubt in my mind that Donovan Peoples-Jones will pick Ohio State. Urban Meyer about to pull off a major Cass Tech coup, just like Mike Weber.

FSU (before):

Wish DPJ would shock the nation and commit to the noles tonight
Donovan Peoples-Jones names FSU a finalist #GoNoles
Jimbo, go git that stud DPJ and bring him down to Doak!!
Gonna be hard to pry DPJ from Michigan but if anyone's going to pull it off I would bet on Coach Fisher
Number One WR Target: Donovan Peoples-Jones
Once we whip Michigan in the Orange Bowl, DPJ come on down!!
Face it, Florida State is the better program from Top to Bottom. DPJ would be a fuckin idiot to pick Mich..
Do you want to play in the snow like a fourth grader or do you want to live in sunny weather all year around with hot bitches suckin yo dick?? Choice seems easy DPJ!
Noles got a real shot here at Donovan Peoples-Jones. Fingers crossed.
Man I wish he would make his decision after the Orange Bowl…put on that Nole cap after we thump UM
If I hear one more Michigan fan on twitter say that DPJ going blue I swear to god
DPJ to UF?
DPJ is going to be very good. I'm just sure Michigan's offense will showcase his talent. Honestly, FSU would be ideal for him.
Dpj to fsu bye kids

MSU (before):

DPJ Commits to MSU tonight
@kryan247 I hope you're right about that prediction. DPJ to MSU!
GO GREEN! DPJ + @HitSquadMsu9 = Lights Out!!!
If DPJ commits to MSU.....that will further fuel the future in a big way.
hope DPJ enjoys the Spartan Family, he would fit right in.
DPJ EL. Immediate impact!!
DPJ come to MSU you & DC would be best duo in the country NCAA champs!!!
I see DPJ ending up at a FSU, USC or a SEC West school. Would love to see him at MSU. Any chance he stays local?
@michigannews247 worried about DPJ. Skipped UM's spring game but went to MSU's
@sparty_designs DPJ gona commit
Coach D gotta get DPJ no doubt
Yeah Donovan Peoples-Jones going to scUM, he gonna be Drake Harris 2.0
Spartans Will. DPJ be a Spartan come on man
Don't be no piece of trash that goes to AA bro
Michigan getting Donovan Peoples-Jones, why we even debating this?

Florida Gators (before):

How much longer till DPJ commits to the gators?
Playing NCAA16 and the Gators got DPJ !!!!!!!!!
gators get dpj tomorrow, calling it
@FlawdaGatah we gonna get DPJ tomorrow and that will turn this whole recruiting thing around!! #Gators
Really think we gotta shot we DPJ, he grew up rooting for the gators I know that's somewhere in his head
Come help the Gators back to national prominence! #DPJ
@GatorFamilySEC @StinkMeaner229 DPJ better bring his A game, we may sneak him and the other recruits in the lineup Go Gators
Hope DPJ picks UF tonight. But I guess I should hope in one hand and shit in the other to see which fills up quicker
@561_Kev come on. You know you want to. Crystal ball DPJ to UF
If DPJ commit to UF I'm definitely in church Sunday morning
If Dpj makes a business decision he comes to UF...
Three or four years from now, you could be hearing the name Donovan Peoples-Jones on Sundays.

On Tuesday, December 13, Peoples-Jones was photographed wearing Florida’s blue and orange with a Gators backpack alongside him. This could be nothing, but it could also be the sign that something special is on the horizon.

It’s entirely possible that Peoples-Jones will don the colors of every team that’s recruiting him before making an official announcement. Mind you, the Detroit native has been linked to the University of Michigan on a rather consistent basis.

It’s also possible that Peoples-Jones intends to shock the masses and commit to playing for Jim McElwain and the Gators.

By landing Peoples-Jones, the Gators would add the type of wide receiver who can single-handedly transform an offense. Placing him alongside Antonio Callaway would create the potential for explosive execution in an area that Florida has struggled in recent seasons. Florida’s offense projects to be better in 2016-17, but adding Peoples-Jones would give it an extra element of lethality.
How big would that be if he committed to the good guys lol CHOMP CHOMP
If he commits to us I will give everyone in this thread $100
I just crystal ball'd Donovan Peoples-Jones to Florida. Gators land a big one tomorrow.

Ohio State (after):

His name is stupid as shit anyway
Donovan Peoples-Jones is settling for mediocracy. I guess he doesn't like winning national championships. Enjoy going 0-4 vs. Ohio State
I hope Donovan Peoples-Jones has fun playing for Les Miles since @CoachJim4UM will be coaching the Rams next season
Donovan Peoples-Jones must want to live up the Michigan legacy, taking Ls to OSU
Best of luck to Donovan Peoples-Jones. It's a shame he'll never get to experience winning The Game or a Natuonal Championship.
5-star WR Donovan Peoples-Jones has committed to bitch ass Michigan
Lmaooo Donovan peoples jones just spurned his friend @mikeweberjr now I know Mike is going to tear his head off for the next three years
Welp. Donovan Peoples-Jones to U of M. He's got a chance to be a Heisman finalist. I'll say that.
Donovan Peoples-Jones picks TTUN. We are all fine- Buckeye fans.
Donovan Peoples-Jones just committed to losing to Ohio State in the next 3-4 years
Donovan Peoples-Jones commits to Michigan. Jim Harbaugh will not be bitterly disappointed.
Best of luck playing for the suck up north get ready for a 0 & 4 record against the Ohio State Buckeyes
0-3, he'll jump to the NFL first shot after a couple woodshed beatings given by the Buckeyes. That said, he's a tremendous talent and it would have been great to see him put on the Scarlet and Gray. Good luck to him.
DPJ, might I suggest you change your jersey number to 4? As in, the number of times you'll lose to Ohio State? K thx.
In four years he can talk about knowing nothing but failure...
We got Shaun Wade, Jeff Okudah, and maybe Danary Holmes. DPJ ain't getting open on us.
Prediction: DPJ is as much of a non-factor in future OSU/UM games as Jabril Peppers.
Either come to Ohio State or lose to Ohio State.
ESPN's content has gone to crap! Seriously, this is what I'm forced to watch...
At least he'll be able to post up on his couch and watch tOSU in the Playoffs every year.
Just remember this is Michigans highlight of tje month....fortunately we have bigger things to worry about like a playoff game! Go Bucks
Good Luck. You'll need it against the 5 star parade in our secondary.
DPJ played Buckeyes by feigning interest in OSU. While pretending to be interested in OSU, DPJ was quietly recruiting for UM. DPJ got Coach Meyer & co. to waste valuable time and effort recruiting him that could have been more beneficially on other prospects. Additionally, DPJ gave TTUN more publicity when he made his school decision.
What do you guys want to talk about now?
You win some you lose some.
He lost some.
Quoting the old knight from the last crusade, "He chose ... poorly"
Finally did some research, @AlbertBreer went to ohio, big fucking surprise. Is jim still headed for LA? #donovanpeoplesjones
Can't wait to watch @shaunwade2017 shut down donovan peoples-jones next year #GoBucks
Donovan Peoples-Jones is a great player and I wanted him to be a Buckeye. Now that's he's going to Michigan I'm hoping he goes 0-4 vs. Ohio State ... if he stays for the full four years. I wish him no ill will. He seems like a quality person, raised right by his parents. Heck, won't bother me if he makes All-American ... as long as he goes 0-4 vs. the Buckeyes.
Donovan Peoples-Jones was a must-have for Michigan and would have been a heckuva a cherry on top for Ohio State. It’s as simple as that.

MSU (after):

Donovan Peoples-Jones, you upset me man
DPJ IS A BABY BACK BITCH
Oh wow that was a shock
Fuck you DPJ, Fuck you Harbaugh, Fuck all those scUM fans
Damnnn just watched a young man make the worst decision of his life
Not like we really had a shot but I was hoping he would go somewhere else
Donovan Peoples-Jones = Overrated
Congrats DPJ you just picked the worst school in America
God damn it why the fuck did we have to be 3-9 we could have had this kid two years ago
I'm excited to watch this kid fail miserably
DPJ to scUM. Fuck this and that and this too
Not like he's going to be an All-American chill the fuck out guys
Most overrated five star recruit in history besides Peppers
GOD FUCKING DAMN IT
Not worried. Coach D will have our DBs make him a benchwarmer
DPJ to UM
What a fucking idiot
I'm glad he's going there. More proof they recruit Busts.
In 3 yrs no one will even remember his name
Let's face it, Harbaugh is a slimy ass coach who pulls off shady shit to get recruits. He probably slept with DPJ's dad to seal the deal. Fucking gross.
I just threw up in my mouth a little bit
WHY MICHIGAN GOD ANYWHERE BUT THERE
Can we PLEASE talk about something ELSE????
Go fuck yourself DPJ
Wow what a douche bag pickin Michigan, thought for sure it'd be OSU or SEC
Like is anyone surprised??? This kid will probably rape somebody, same ol scUM
Fuck I was holding out hope he would shock everyone and pull out an MSU hat
Prediction: Donovan Peoples-Jones will set an NCAA record for most dropped catches, that is if he even sees the field
Sigh. Fuck Michigan.
Hope you like losing a ton of games asshole
If this was 2013 we would have had this kid…wtf MSU??!
I am tired of this shit. We have one bad season and suddenly we can't compete with Harbaugh anymore? Fucking Bullshit! Coach D is not going anywhere and we WILL be back! DPJ you want to go play for the worst program in America, that's your choice bro, but the Spartans will be here kicking your ass for the next four years. When are these stupid Cass Tech kids going to WAKE UP and realize that they are WASTING their career playing for scUM? If you are tough you come be a Spartan, end of story! Whatever I don't even care! We going to rip scUM a new hole next year anyway so this bitch can just watch his team lose. FUCK MICHIGAN, GO GREEN BABY
I watched his tape and honestly I was not that impressed. Corley is better.
I don't know what's worse, going 3-9 or having those stupid scUM fans in my ear all December about this recruiting b.s.
God I hate Michigan
Welp, not like he's going to be any good
I would say Donovan Peoples-Jones will be known for his butterfingers but that assumes he won't tear an ACL. Say your prayers now M fans
Another "big time recruit" picks scUM who won't do shit
Like this changes anything.
If DPJ wants to play in the NFL he should've gone to MSU. Much better recent track record of skill position players with NFL contracts.

FSU (after):

DPJ smh should've came to FSU
Michigan has Tarik Black & Donovan Peoples-Jones committed.. can FSU get a damn visit from Nico Collins now?? Or is he an EE
Plenty of time to decommit
laughing gif
DPJ gonna be salty when FSU beats UMich in this bowl game
I'm sick
Jimbo didn't visit. That tells you what FSU thought their chances were. Jimbo scoots around on private jets, it would have been easy to make a 5-6 hour round trip during the two weeks they were on the road. The FSU staff felt their time could be used more wisely on other targets.
More motivation for us to beat their smug asses on Dec 30
Note to Self: Next time rumors emerge days before a commitment from a longtime Michigan lean will suddenly pick the Noles, don't believe them
We will all look back on this moment five years from now and say "That guy was a 5-star?" LOL
Watch him flip to FSU after the bowl game
You think this commitment suddenly makes you good Michigan? Wake up, you still have a bitch ass program compared to FSU
OK! FULL COURT PRESS ON NICO COLLINS, MAKE IT HAPPEN
DPJ too bad the team you just picked is going to lose badly to FSU I hope you like them oranges cuz you aint gettin any
Whatever. Harbaugh's going to the NFL in a year anyway.
@StricnyneJesse @brimetimenole Michigan is going to land DPJ, Collins, Black,and Oliver. They have more WRs than we do. How they do it?

Florida Gators (after):

WR class not looking good
Well, that was unexpected. yawn
Just another reminder that we need to step up
Anybody else think that Citrus Bowl beatdown a year ago had something to do with this?
For some reason Michigan just has our number in everything. Not looking forward to the matchup next year.
This kid grew up a Gator fan, and he picks UMich?? Fucking bullshit
I hope Coach Mac stays on him and gets him to flip on NSD
Dear Jim Harbaugh,
please go back to the NFL. You're fucking up our shit.
I shoulda known something was up when he had that stupid Michigan helmet in the center, smdh
Well at least he didn't go to FSU
Convinced myself we had a shot at DPJ, why do I do this to myself
Good luck sucking major ass in the Big Ten
SEC IS WHERE ITS AT
I have faith in Coach Mac. Soon these kinds of guys will flock to UF…
DPJ to Mich, shocking nobody. Move on. Go Gators. Fuck Michigan.
I don't know who I hate more, OSU or Michigan in the Big Ten. Whatever, at least he didn't go to FSU.
On some level I am glad he picked Michigan, I hope he beats Urban every year for four straight years. I fucking hate that guy.
Agreed. Silver Lining. Fuck Urban Meyer.

Exactly. Of course alumni are fans, no surprise.  But that program doesn't draw in very many non-alum fans, like we do.  As if a having a large fanbase is a bad thing?  I had a sparty co-worker insult me once because I went to UM Dearborn, like I am not qualified to be a fan.

So much salt lol. I can't wait till we start beating OSU on a regular basis so all that 0-4 bullshit stops. There's no way that'll happen under Harbaugh. Oh, and MSU is just pathetic. Such a scrub program and they deserve all the shit that's happening to them after running their mouths all those years after beating teams coached by Rich Rod and Hoke.

But quite pathetic wishing ill will to a kid who did not commit to their team. I found Sparty to be the worse of the worse!

Sparty < OSU < FSU < UF < WORSE

Honestly I can't see how DPJ picks Michigan after watching The Game #GoBuckeyes

You mean the one where the Ohio State QB could not hit an open WR more than 5 yards downfield?

What 5-star WR wouldn't want to go there?

 

 

4yearsofhoke

December 16th, 2016 at 4:01 AM ^

Totally agree with this. Their WR coah infuriates me. Why the hell is he so cocky when his WRs almost NEVER get the ball? It would suck to play WR there. The only QB who could throw in the last 12 years was Cardale and they benched him his senior year in lieu of someone who had a DUI IN-SEASON.

Niels

December 16th, 2016 at 7:21 AM ^

...that comes from watching a program falling in recent years with a coaching staff in which therei is not a lot fo faith. Meanwhile an in-state rival is talking ***** though in some important (though not really football) ways they are a little brother school.

I can definitely empathize with that sentiment.

Fishbulb

December 16th, 2016 at 6:02 AM ^

Sparty loves them some scUM. Can you imagine the sheer joy when they figured that out (or had someone explain it to them)? Hey...scum is spelled s-c-u-m...wait a second...

My favorite is Most overrated five star recruit in history besides Peppers.

Yes, the overrated consensus All-American, winner of more awards than any current player from any of these second-rate (or lower) institutions. I expect DPJ to be equally overrated.

Almost as hilarious were the regular mentions by Sparties of Michigan being "that shitty school," or the "shittiest school."

Feel The Strength

December 16th, 2016 at 6:23 AM ^

This is excellent work by Decatur Jack, thank you. What I'm curious about is if any of the overly confident pre-commitment posters then also posted shadenfreude after DPJ went Blue. Surely there were some double dippers.

UM Fan from Sydney

December 16th, 2016 at 6:36 AM ^

Gotta love the guaranteed losing to OSU. Their dumb ass fans truly believe UM will never beat OSU again.

OP, thank you for compiling these. I don't want to explore the deep recesses of my mind that make me enjoy the pain and toddler-like responses of other fans so much....but the pleasure is there nonetheless.

Someone should tell that one FSU commenter that M is likely not getting/taking Oliver Martin.

DPJ, Black, and Collins - yes. Martin - no.

S/He need only be 75% as distraught as s/he currently is. 

CLARIFICATION: I'm not - at all - suggesting that Martin > Hawkins (I doubt that the FSU commenter is aware of the Hawkins situation). My interpretation of the FSU commenter's distress was due to the fact that M was taking all the good WR's in the 2017 class and leaving nothing left for FSU.

December 16th, 2016 at 7:16 AM ^

Just what I needed to start the day.

On a side note, what the hell did we ever do to FSU to make them hate us so much?  I don't really have feelings towards that school one way or the other.

ScruffyTheJanitor

December 16th, 2016 at 8:16 AM ^

but how in the hell is a single one of these people (especially the  MSU fans) surpised that DPJ committed to Michigan? The kid practiclly spent the past year pracitcing football and visiting Michigan. The Ohio State chatter scared me a bit, but I don't get how rest of these programs are the least bit surprised.
