any idea where he's leaning, or if it at least looks more positive for certain schools than others?

Almost every rumor I heard today has him going to Tennessee...

Thanks!

I also heard rumors that he was in Idaho on Saturday. So there's that.

I get the feeling that this kid is enjoying his recruitment and loving every minute of this. Good for him, bad for all the "insiders" who think they have breaking information.

Actually

He was at the Michigan game. There were pictures and everything -- I think he tweeted about a surprise visit to Boise State, but that was a joke.

He was in Michigan gear watching the craziest game in the history of the Big House.

Huh

I have absolutely no information, but if it's not us then I hope it's someone outside the B10 (or at least not MSU).

I'm fine if Tom knows something but doesn't want to hint, we'll find out where he's going shortly enough and he deserves his time in the spotlight.

That Raback prediction was epic. Ever since then, I've referred to recruiting predictions/guarantees as "Raback-ing it."

Also, your avatar is intriguing.

He had a source that let him

He had a source that let him know that Demar Dorsey was coming to  Michigan. We said if he didn't it would be a neg bang for the ages. I also believe Megan Fox was in play on this bet as well. Anyhow is handle was Raback. Demar committed to Michigan pos bang ensued and the angry Michigan secondary gods pissed on our parade.

em0

That guy was crazy about depth charts, posting them years in advance with potential recruits and whatnot. There was a new one practically every day, and he would neg you if you criticized the concept of future depth charts or his projections. Then he'd get banned and come back with a slightly different username but the same posts and comments like "who's em0?"

Eventually I think his depth chart analysis became similar to the computer in War Games playing tic-tac-toe, and his brain just exploded (at least that's how I like to imagine it).

When I first joined there was another guy that had been banned and kept returning under different names and asking about himself.  I cna't remember what his original name was, but everytime anyone would ask about him everyone would assume it was him re-incarnate.

My guts are filled with beer and salami

and will likely cost me an angioplasty by age 45, but my gut is also saying we've got a damn good shot at this kid. The timing, his original interest in the school, the investigation concluded and RR's job appearing to be safe for another season all were part of his reasons to not seriously consider us. Then, he simply came to the craziest game ever.

Agreed that snake oil must flow, but I have a good feeling about a commit.

I wonder what kind of impact a DA commit would have on Sammy Watkins...

Kids like this love the attention, most of the time they have been the center of attention for years because of their skill and they just love everylittle piece of attention they can get. I'm not saying that DeAnthony is this type of kid or anything but I'm just saying don't get your hopes up because of that.

Hey,

If he is one of the kids who love attention who you're describing, then he's either trolling our blog right now laughing his ass of at us for getting our hopes up, or he's trolling our blog right now to see how excited we are for his commitment, and after seeing your comment he's a little upset at you stereotyping him into a kid who loves attention... either way, bad. 

/sarcasm

DeAnthony is not like that

Remember this is a kid who came on a surprise visit this weekend. Sam Webb said in his Recruiting Roundup on WTKA today that the reason he didn't announce he was coming was because he wanted to let the coaches know he was sincere in his interest and wasn't using Michigan to add hype to his signing announcement.

I know you made it clear you weren't implying this, but just wanted to put any thought about that being what this is to rest. Now everyone can get their hopes up.

I like it

It could be that I want him to come really bad, but that logic is 100% legit to me, and I am now convinced he is going blue.

Well, and Tom can correct me

Well, and Tom can correct me if I'm wrong, but it could be that Arnett texted Tom with this info because Tom texted him first saying "Please let me know when you have decided when you'll be announcing your commitment" and Arnett simply replied. 

Although I agree with your second bullet.

If so inclined, you might add

If so inclined, you might add to that list the factor that Roy Roundtree broke Michigan receiving records, thereby undercutting the cliche that 'you won't get recognized as a receiver in RR's offense.' 

He didn't visit MSU?

I would love to see him pick the Maize n Blue, if we aren't the choice please go out west and NO SPARTY. If I remember correctly, he went sour on us because of the perception that we 'Don't Throw'. Well, he couldn't have been at a better game to dispel those thoughts...GO BLUE

Timing is everything....

Timing is everything and I think seeing that game in person could have done a ton for a talented young kid who just wants the ball. 

I can see him being attracted to a school with the most dynamic QB in the NCAA who happens to be a sophomore, and offense that just destroyed a top 15 defense.  Oh, and we have DG waiting to step in...  Looks pretty rosy to me..

His Official Visits

were CAL, USC, and Michigan.

Now I am not him, but why would he choose USC when they have a new coach and are under major sanctions from the NCAA?

CAL?  Well CAL is a good academic school, but no better than Michigan.  And they are certainly not very competitive in the PAC 10 or BCS.

UM?  UM has great academics, has 3 great quarterbacks, an offensive genius coach, and is a 2 hour drive away from home.

To me, this choice is a no-brainer. 

DeAnthony, Go Blue!

That analysis is appropriate for determining who his 3rd place school is. His top two are believed to be MSU and TN.

About Cal

Cal blogs told me that Arnett eliminated Cal.  But they also say he's down to MSU, Tennessee, and USC:

"He has eliminated Cal and is down to USC, Tennessee and Michigan State," DeAnthony's brother Ralph Arnett said. "Right now, DeAnthony is pretty confident in his decision but hasn't told any of us yet and I don't even know what he's going to do."

That stuff is almost a week old. No one even knew UM was in the picture 6 days ago, other than Deanthony and whatever insiders he told. Perhaps it was UM all along and the recent visit confirmed it for him.

If not then.....Sammy Watkins?

If we don't get him, I will wish him good luck in the future.  Surely the game had an effect on his decision, but if not then maybe it had a positive effect on sammy watkins who has us currently on the top of his list with Clemson.  I see us getting atleast one of the two WR's and both of them would definitely boost our 2011 class ratings.

Announcement time announced when?

Was it already known that he would be announcing in this general timeframe (early nov-ish)?

Or was it just recently known that he would make his announcement just days after a surprise visit to M to see one of the craziest games ever?

I would think the answer to that question could possibly be telling...

Did your ear to the ground tell you that Michigan never stopped recruiting him and that was the reason for his visit?  Hey it may not happen, but Michigan can and Rod will look nationwide for good recruits and this time the good recruit was in Michigan.

Yipee, another WR

Seriously, it's nice if he comes here and all. But Michigan's offense is locked and loaded. I'll get excited for a 5 - star defensive back. Or even a 4 star.

Why doesn't someone reach out

Why doesn't someone reach out and ask THE_KNOWLEDGE. I'm sure he already knows. Maybe he'd be willing to share that with us. I like that our visit was only 4 days before his announcement. I think it puts us in a good position unless he is such a heavy lean toward USC or MSU that even a great weekend couldn't sway him.

Look at it this way: By the time DeAnthony is up to speed with the offense, and had some real time with Barwis, three of our best wideouts will be gone. There is no guarantee that last year's haul will pan out, so you gotta take him. Also, you don't say no to 5 star players.

I'm not sure how significant this is really but after checkin out his twitter account after hearin about these claims about being in idaho, boise, and alabama within 24 hours I saw this tweet from november 3rd.

 

"IM WEARING NUMBER #1 IN COLLEGE ITS OFFICIAL"

no ones worn the #1 at michigan in a while, and I'm not sure how significant that number is to other teams at the wide receiver position as it is at michigan. Just saying, plus having visited michigan right after that.

I, for one, am optimistic

Why.  Because tom has not commented once on this thread or the inital thread about our chances.  When Tom feels like we got no shot, he usually states so and answers questions in the thread.  that is not happening here.  He is always very respectful of how recruits wan their decisions to be known and never leaks early information unless the recruit wants him to.  Quiet Tom = Hopeful me. 

Plus.  He was a Michigan fan growing up!  You can't ignore that as being a huge factor no matter what recruits say.

On this post,

http://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/deanthony-arnett-army-all-american

Tom's post is 1/3 down from the top.  He thinks that Arnett, Walls, and Zettel will not go to MSU.  Some sparty lover was making claims that all 3 may go to MSU.

So, there may be hope for Arnett, but at least he won't be Sparty.

What we know about RR

If  that #1 jersey comment is true, I'd say there's no way RR makes that promise to a kid when he hasn't earned it yet. Sounds like a Kiffin move.  We have kids busting their asses and trying to win for last couple years and you think a hs kid gets promised that jersey? No way. Especially when Roy just said he wants it, but knows he has to earn it.
