Not particuliarly happy about this, but it seems a bit sudden. I felt like his recruitment would play out a while longer, especially having seen his interview with Tom the other day.

I guess I can understand it somewhat.  With the OL class in 2012, he was facing stiff competition to see the field early.  Tough to lose him, but I'd rather he leave the state if he isn't going blue.

Wow, I'm really surprised by this. It seemed like he had a lot more interest in UM given his many visits to AA. Also, I'd think Brian Kelly's attitude toward his players might have made Elmer's parents uncomfortable, especially given how involved his father has been in his recruitment. Ah well, things can change.

better than any in the '12 class?

cmon really?  how can you even go there?  Why would you downgrade the commits we have landed?  pleny of talent there to say the least.  so I'm guessing you have seen every snap of his highschool career aswell as every snap of the other lineman we have landed?  who is his competition?  some 200 pound DE's...just another corn fed farm boy.  Plenty more where he came from.

That's pretty stupid.....

All an 0-3 start by ND would do is make our UTL win look less impressive.  However, now that they beat down a fairly highly ranked Sparty, all it can do is help our image nationally.

I made a thread earlier about Elmer who said he had a silent leader. I got it from an article from a 24/7 MSU writer on RCMB who said he thought it was Michigan. Last time I get any information from a Spartan, or more specifically, RCMB.

I don't think we'd need

I don't think he would necessarily need to see another commit for the depth chart to give him trouble.  Michigan has got two of the top tackles (Manguson and Kalis, even if he projects at guard), an in-state sleeper like Braden, and -- if rumors are true -- one or two more OL coming in for this class.  I think Elmer (and Diamond, for that matter) are looking for opportunities to play early.

Not surprised at all. He was saying the right things but he has been to ND as much as he's been to AA and most of his visits this year are to see ND even when they are on the road. He had also previously said he's a big ND fan because of his religion. Add it all together and this was a matter of when, not if.

"He had also previously said he's a big ND fan because of his religion."

Interesting ... I hadn't heard that. I could certainly see where it would matter, though. ND has (historically, at least) had a Mt. Carmel pipeline in Chicago. It's not the only one.

I appreciate the humor. After all, UMich is the school that created "Harvard: The Michigan of the East" shirts.

Still, this is a serious issue in the U.S. For example:

http://www.gallup.com/poll/145286/four-americans-believe-strict-creation...

Sorry ... that's a bit political.

Not saying Elmer or his family is into ID ...

if his decision was based on

if his decision was based on our incoming class, well i'm glad he doesn't want to go blue.  we have no need for players that don't want to compete.

interesting

Best of luck, Steve, in all your games that aren't against us. We still pull for our Michigan guys no matter what.

 

I do wonder though, if this commitment will stick. I can't feel too much of the schadenfreude when dealing with a team that we have handled well in recent years, but I can't say that the Brian Kelly regime is off to the best possible start. From "BCS Contender" (not my prognostication, but that of others) to 0-2 and facing a tough Spartan team isn't really the way they had things slated.

Honestly though, it's not just the wins and losses. I saw a Catholic group that voiced concerns about keeping Brian Kelly on as coach after the famous hissy fit. Makes me wonder how long he will be around. I have to think that if he continues to behave badly and lose, his tenure might not be so long. If ND hadn't had so much turnover and so little success over the last 20 years, I think that they might already be pondering alternatives.

If a Michigan coach conducted himself that way (and I were Mary Sue), I'd have had a meeting with him the next day or even that night. I can only let that happen once. Second time and you're fired. Also, feel free to differ with this opinion, but I think that you might be able to fire the guy for cause, thus avoiding the buyout.

In conclusion, I apologize for the ramble, but I guess that committing to ND just puzzles me, given the smart and analytical approach that the Elmers seemed to be taking. Stanford or Cal would have made a heck of a lot more sense to me of the other programs out there. Gotta go with your heart, but I just don't see the logic here.

Maybe you, and others, are just over-sensitive on what is actually a non-factor. Don't over think something that isn't complicated

As a graduate of the other Midland High school, Dow High, seeing a Midland High guy not go to Michigan and choose a crap team instead doesn't surprise me.

As a graduate of Midland High I am incredibly bummed out by this.  I saw his family last night and wanted to tell them GO BLUE! but I didn't want to come off as a total creep.  I could kind of see this coming a little while back when I was able to remove my blinders.  His Mom being an MSU grad and his Dad loving the good guys.  Easy to see how he might end up out of state.  Oh well, in 16 years my son will get his Michigan offer and then we will finally see a Chemic suit up for the Wolverines.  One can dream anyways....

Good luck Steve

I too watched the Chemics roll 66-0 over hapless Saginaw Arthur Hill last night. My son knows Steve at school and says he's a big Notre Dame fan. Best of luck to him. ND certainly has good academics so that should be great for him.

I was always under the impression that Steve was Irish bound.  I saw him at the Lions-Patriots game a few weeks ago, and he was wearing a Notre Dame shirt.  Long way to go til Signing Day tho

i agree

i agree, as long as michigan is winning the recruiting battles with michigan state and ohio state, and michigan addresses every positions of need, then we will be fine.

He'd visited ND a lot, every time he went to another school he would come back and visit ND. Whether you believe me or not, The UM game last week probably sealed the deal for ND.

He looked to be a ND lean for a while based on his visits, and then UM and MSU were the 2 teams trailing.  He just recently confirmed he had a leader, I would be really surprised if he felt the same last weekend and still made the UM visit.
