Stefon Diggs

Submitted by dcstud on
Mike Farrell just tweeted "Stefon Diggs told me he could take official visit to either #Ohio State #Auburn or #Michigan this weekend, not sure. #USC could be next weekend." it would be awesome if he came up to AA this weekend not that we Brionte Dunn an Kyle Kalis are already going to be there. #go blue

He will be in Ohio this week and hopefully AA next week possibly with Kalis since they wanted to take their officials together. He sent out a tweet earlier basically saying how "life sucks" in regard to making a decision. Hoke and Jackson will be visiting this week and Meyer next week. Looks like its going to the wire.

why are people jumping the gun on brionte's commitment? It's been very obvious he wants to goto Ohio all year and several things need to happen for us to get him up to AA. Lets not start saying he's coming to Michigan until we hear otherwise

I definitely agree. It cannot be a good sign that he keeps saying "I am committed to Ohio State" over and over. Obviously, it makes us hopeful that our coaching staff is still gunning for the kid, he still has been visiting AA, and he probably would not work in Urban's system. However, the guy still refuses to even say that he is a soft verbal. I am just trying to be realistic on this one.

I think he's reopening his commitment. I saw an article about Urban Meyer taking over Ohio and whether it interested several prospects, their answer was yes. AR was one of them. I know Armani's teammate, Camren Williams, is still a solid Penn State commit. That might keep Armani in Happy Valley, though they weren't a package deal.

Earlier today the Washington Post reported he is probably visiting Ohio and he is not sure if he will visit Michigan. Please don't shoot the messenger

I'd like to think he's being so vague because he's worried about assassins laying in wait, should his plans become know.

Stefon Diggs- Man of Mystery.

Our rooting interest at this point, is that he ends up at Cal over Ohio. I would hate to play this kid for the next 4 years. My trouble with this however, is that he said he wants to go to a school that will make him a better man. I don't see how Auburn, or Ohio will make him a better man during his time in college.

Man, at some point I probably need to stop getting worked up over what a bunch of 17-year-olds say on twitter about where they'll play football.  I mean, I'm a man and I'm 30!

He got really excited and so did wright when urban got hired. Apparently urban has good ties to the east coast. Is there any reason diggs has slowed down on the recruiting of diggs. For a week he was tweeting at him non stop. All of a sudden he seems to off just stop.

I'm in the camp that's not terrified of Urban Meyer. I think he tucked tail and run to make sure he went out on top. I DID think this would happen. He has multiple national championships, he can claim he went out on top...he was always going to attract talent like magnets. The only thing that's going to stop that is if he runs into protracted hard times on the field. So here's hoping.

Meyer is 56-16 (BG, Utah, and FLA) without Tebow, a winning percentage of .78. That's hardly mediocre. There's no reason to "fear" him, but If you think he's not one of the top 5 coaches in the country you're denying reality. He has excelled wherever he's been.

Kids of this caliber, with this mentality, think the ship waits for them, or, barring that, that it's the ship's loss. I tend not to take the highest-ranked kids seriously until they exhibit tangible interest in a place. Diggs has never actually demonstrated any real interest in visiting Michigan, so I hold no hope for him until such time as he's actually on campus.
