Nope. I'll go ahead and add it. Having a tough time refreshing right now though, what with all the 8am'ers hitting their desks, and whatnot...

Very mature response to an 18-year old's major life decision.
February 4th, 2015 at 9:06 AM ^
Normally I would agree but we are talking about Clark here...

Weber reportedly woke up blue but now rethinking because of Higdon. Is he even aware of the OSU depth chart? LOL.
February 4th, 2015 at 9:10 AM ^
I hope he does the right thing and goes Blue. I think he'll regret it the rest of his life if he does to OSU.
Also, Fuck Ohio.

NOTE ON CLARK : Michigan had cooled on him in the last week or so because he was so wishy-washy and kind of giving Michigan the run around a bit according to Rivals. Some on the staff didnt think he was a "Harbaugh type kid"
I am ok with not landing him. Harbaugh will turn a rusty wheel barrow in to an NFL TE so we are in fine shape without him. Especially given we still have Wheatley as a possibility and also Butt and Bunting on the depth chart.
Just an FYI
February 4th, 2015 at 9:23 AM ^
Dude, just stop.
February 4th, 2015 at 9:26 AM ^
That's legit info directly from Rivals (except for my opinion - 2nd paragraph).
What is it that you want me to stop?
February 4th, 2015 at 9:24 AM ^
February 4th, 2015 at 9:32 AM ^
I don't think Clark is a Harbaugh type player -- he comes across as a "me first" type of player and it fits the mentality of the area he grew up in. He doesn't have an ounce of blue collar mentality in him. Also, in my personal opinion, he is probably a bit overrated. He played football in Connecticut which is not a very competitive state when it comes to football. I'm not saying there's not talent in that state, but it's easy to see why a kid of Clark's size could dominate if he has decent strength and good hands. For his sake, I hope my assumptions are wrong and he turns out to be the next coming of Gronk, but I don't think this is a big deal for Michigan. Good luck at UCLA!

Harbaugh will turn a rusty wheelbarrow in to an NFL TE.
Players matter; they aren't primal Matter waiting to be given shape by an omnipotent coach.
The notion seems to be confined to college athletics. Good teaching is important but you never hear anyone say "she could teach quantum field theory to a rusty wheelbarrow."
The thought has crossed my mind that maybe this is linked somehow to the warped economics of college sports, with all the money funneled to coaches because it has to go somewhere and the players can't be paid. People get conditioned to think markets are free even when they obviously aren't and maybe they unconsciously expect pay to correspond to importance. Sometimes the linkage is explicit: "We're paying him 40 million so he damn well better be able to turn a wheelbarrow into an NFL tight end."

"The best Damn coach on this campus" once referred to her Olympic caliber third baseman as less than a "potted plant" so it is not just internet posters who make these observations

Doesn't surprise me that UCLA was the choice. Westwood might not be a true college town like A2, but UCLA is a great place to go to school. Heck, didn't any of you ever see Gotcha or The Sure Thing? And for you movie buffs, outside of UCLA what did those two movies have in common?
February 4th, 2015 at 9:24 AM ^
I am relieved, Clark is not for us. Would have made a good player for a Wayne Fonts type coach.
February 4th, 2015 at 9:29 AM ^
Really? You're relieved we didn't get the best TE in the country? I'm disappointed. Clark would have fit perfectly in the offense we want to run and he's one of the most talented TEs I've seen at the HS level. Sure, his recruitment was a little dramatric, but lots of kids change their minds a lot, it doesn't say anything about his character IMO.
Go Blue, but good luck to Chris Clark at UCLA, people here trashing him and making suggestions about his character are pathetic.
February 4th, 2015 at 9:37 AM ^
I'm not trashing the kid. Just trying to make people feel better about him not choosing Michigan. Clarks choice actually makes me feel better about the kid. He saw that he probably didn't fit the mentality at Michigan now. He probably works better for a players coach (like Hoke/Mora) moreso than for a guy like Harbaugh. I'm glad he picked UCLA and it actually makes more sense to me now. Harbaugh likely would have chewed that kid up and not gotten the best out of him because he wouldnt have handled it well.
February 4th, 2015 at 10:03 AM ^
I'm with you. He wanted to play for a "chill" coach. Harbaugh is the exact opposite of chill.
He would not have fit in at Michigan under the new regime and there are no tears in my beer over him going to UCLA.
February 4th, 2015 at 9:43 AM ^
How many great Michigan players were surrounded with drama?
February 4th, 2015 at 9:47 AM ^
February 4th, 2015 at 9:58 AM ^
Not happening.
It was all about Alibi getting in to OSU or not IMO.
February 4th, 2015 at 10:53 AM ^
Reuben Jones in as of 10:34. I think that's everyone who is already committed?
February 4th, 2015 at 11:32 AM ^

Let's finish this thing strong...
Two positions of need.

Have we given up on Jefferson?
