A "Spock like" approach to Gary's decision tomorrow

Submitted by Lakeyale13 on
Here are the objective factors that, when I focus on, leave me feeling confident Rashan will end up a Wolverine. The situation has currently developed where it seems to be 50-50 Michigan or Clemson. So here is a quick break down. Gary and Michigan 1. He has visited 4 times (last visit for four consecutive days) 2. Tons of Crystal Balls given Michigans way (even one last night and today I believe) 3. Literally his two best friends in the world are current Michigan recruits and look likely to sign. Gary and Clemson 1. Half as many visits to Clemson as Michigan 2. ZERO Crystal Balls given to Clemson during his entire recruitment 3. Has an Uncle 15 min away. But in college do you hang with your boys, or say "No thanks guys, I'm gonna go hang with my Uncle." Sammy Watkins and Artavis Scott mean that Clemson should strike fear in us a bit, but all the information still seems to be tipping a "pro's and cons scale" our way. Furthermore, if he picks Clemson (and I have been there twice) it is because he wants a school experience completely different than Michigan. Clemson is close to the polar opposite of what Ann Arbor is in many ways, not in a negative sense, but just the opposite.

Sorry guys. When "saving" all the spacing for paragraphs and other grammatical structure completely goes away. What was laid out nicely, now looks like a jumbled mess.

You are a recruiting genius! On a side note...looks like there is a sad breakup on the recruiting trail....Bossiasi is no longer a package deal? Flury of ballz have The Boss to UCLA and Asiasi to Michigan. Really hope we get Asiasi in this class.

...it's possible Gary views Michigan as the reliable, loyal, can't-go-wrong girlfriend. Clemson is the new, attractive girl that has recently caught his eye. Logically, he knows the safe reliable girlfriend is the way to go, but emotions are tugging at him from another direction.

I think all of this stems from the fact that he doesn't want to be considered predictable.

The only people I see saying this are Clemson homers.

The observation of sentiment is not itself necessarily based in emotion. He's not saying Gary's dealing solely with facts and objective data, he's including the weight of Gary's feelz as a factor in probability calculation. Considering the role emotion most often plays in the decision process, to omit the emotional factor would be an incomplete calculation of probability.

The biggest sign you need is no Clemson recruiting writer to my knowledge has said Gary is going there. If they don't feel confident in saying that then we shouldn't feel nervous about him going there.

Balls of steel for that kid, if reports were true that his parents are adamant about him staying close to home.

EDIT: Ryan Bartow National Guy at 247 put in his CBz for UM, too. This completes Lorenz local + national guy combo for CBz.
