I obsess over this stuff as much as the next guy, but there comes a point when you just feel that enough is enough, the kid can decide whenever he wants to decide. If he picks M, great. If not, then another kid who wants to be here will get the chance he would have had. And we don't need his father tweeting about the process.

I think you're reading way, way too much into this. First of all, just because he termed this new wrinkle 'drama,' that doesn't mean he's using it in a pejorative sense (i.e., 'my son's a drama queen.')
Regardless of interpretation though, it's hard to say someone's a dick based on one innocuous word in a tweet.

It could be quite counter-productive to call a recruit's father a "dick." I hope the thread gets deleted.
December 19th, 2012 at 10:01 PM |
Maybe
Maybe
Maybe we should stop insulting McQuay's father, if we want McQuay to play for Michigan. I could be wrong, but it may not look good if his dad does end up reading this blog....or worse yet, a rival school who is also recruiting him, shows him what "the other schools" are saying about him and his dad.

Maybe it's not about being fickle and about him taking his time to make a major decision. We all want kids to decide on our time table, but this is a huge choice for them. Let them take their time; we're still months away from signing day.

Flamebait...sorry I guess it was
I'm in no rush for him to decide either. More so my point was there are certain kids you get a feeling are not going to decide until they have too. I'll wait and click on the one that says he has decided. This twitter stuff gets silly in my opinion.

For what it's worth, I didn't neg/down mod you. I think you were getting at the same thing that I was, anyways (i.e., that these kids have the right to take as long as they need and teenagers aren't the best at decision making to begin with). But I'm with you that a lot of this 24 hour recruiting news is at best silly, often irritating. It's clearly not for me, and I should try and stay away, too.

at a totally new school, not one that's been on his list so far. Meaning it won't be Michigan or Vanderbilt or USC. It wouldn't shock me if Nick Satan lured him to Tuscaloosa with promises of a custom-built music production program with tricked-out studio equipment conveniently donated by a wealthy Alabama grad who's suddenly interested in music.

I will never be convinced that a recruitment that drags on is about "finding" the best school as much as it is a negotiation.
When parents start to get involved with the media, I thank my lucky stars that I don't have to follow recruiting for a living.

No one has to follow
No one has to follow
No one has to follow recruiting, and it would probably be much less stressful if 10 blogs for each school didn't want an interview just because a kid is offered. As interesting as recruiting is these people deserve privacy. Why not wait to praise and interview recruits until they make a commitment? Has anyone thought constant "go blues" and "we need you" and "why would you go to that school" etc. is annoying as hell? It's pathetic really. Let the coaches do their jobs. "We" are not on the staff, nor the team.

I'm sure there are many kids who delay their recruitment
I'm sure there are many kids who delay their recruitment
because they truly are searching for the right fit, but I agree that there does seem to be a growing trend of kids dragging things out in order to create a buzz, and more often than not those kids are not a good fit with Michigan which is why I have thought we would probably have a similar lack of success down the stretch with the few elites we are still in on (including Derek Green IMO).
