Speculation?
Both Shane Morris and Allen Trieu have tweeted that a surprise is coming tomorrow too

Jaquay Williams, as long as he got some things straightened around earlier this evening in regards to his school qualifying stuff. That was from earlier this evening. Tom said he doesn't mind things being shared with other blogs, I'm guessing he means this one since he has such close ties! Must have gotten everything approved, mark it down for 7 a.m. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
January 31st, 2012 at 11:31 PM ^
So you think it's Williams?
January 31st, 2012 at 11:39 PM ^
um.. did you even read the post? I'm tempted to call you a sparty troll because you can't read.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:42 PM ^
The post specifically said "this must stay here"
February 1st, 2012 at 1:23 AM ^
Fuck you people are stooopid. "Keep the info here" is a classic "insiders" tactic. It makes the idiot that pays for this stuff feel like they're really in on some super top secret shit, when all they've received is a tip from a high schooler a few hours before the general public hears about it. Moreover, TomVH is a smart guy, and he knows that if info really needs to be kept secret, the last thing he should do is publish it on the internet.
February 1st, 2012 at 12:26 AM ^
Dude seriously he specifically said keep your mouth shut on This one
January 31st, 2012 at 11:30 PM ^
Let's thrown some names up. I think its JaQay Williams as well
January 31st, 2012 at 11:31 PM ^
Gunner Kiel ... just to dick punch ND. lol
January 31st, 2012 at 11:33 PM ^
If it's just a sleeper recruit that pushes the class number up one, it's going to be pretty damn anti-climactic.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:42 PM ^
Said player plays for Michigan, coaches know what they're doing. Jake Ryan and frank Clark were pretty anti climactic.
February 1st, 2012 at 12:37 AM ^
I am not saying I don't like taking sleepers, 3-stars, whatever.
Ryan and Clark just committed and signed. No big suspense or intrigue. If this story indeed happens, it comes with a lot of hype and intrigue. If something this balleyhooed actually happens and it's not for a fairly big name, it will be a letdown.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:35 PM ^
So can I go ahead and assume that at 7 AM tomorrow when I try and get on here I'm gonna get the bad gateway error?
January 31st, 2012 at 11:37 PM ^
sometimes in times of dire need, Twitter is your friend.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:38 PM ^
You don't have to worry about students like me clogging up the servers.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:38 PM ^
But I don't want to wait till 7am.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:38 PM ^
J Williams, Auburn soft verbal, is my guess.
February 1st, 2012 at 12:38 AM ^
You're killin' me, man!
January 31st, 2012 at 11:38 PM ^
but Hoke and company have exceeded all my wildest expectations over the last 13 months, from the season, to recruiting, to the quality of kids they appear to be targetting.
To have a great surprise tomorrow would not be a surprise based on their track record.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:40 PM ^

<br>
<br>Maybe Hoke called him up????
January 31st, 2012 at 11:43 PM ^
That doesn't read well for us...
And if he's announcing at 8:45, that doesn't line up either.
February 1st, 2012 at 1:27 AM ^
Gay bashing on your signature line? Really? Maybe you really are a Buckeye.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:41 PM ^
hint that he was going to Georgia? I read it on the ESPN article when Shaq Wiggins got his UGA offer. Williams, Wiggins, and a top 2014 recruit all attend Sandy Creek HS.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:42 PM ^
Georgia fans think they have him in the bag, for what it is worth.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:49 PM ^
I just saw this as well in a google search. I don't understand where all the Williams to M talk originated. Did he ever even visit? In the articles I found it sounded like Wiggins wants Williams to come play with him at Georgia also, which doesn't bode well for our efforts with him...
January 31st, 2012 at 11:55 PM ^
TomVH stoked that fire. I would have to guess that since all the Midwestern guys from all the recruiting services are breaking this that it is more local than that.
I
January 31st, 2012 at 11:48 PM ^
Because he decided not to go to either of those schools and somehow got talked into Michigan! Wanted to be the next great receiver to come from the Great University of Michigan!
February 1st, 2012 at 12:49 AM ^
Please
January 31st, 2012 at 11:53 PM ^
I say Dunn says SIKE and signs a Michigan LOI.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:55 PM ^
No way that happens
January 31st, 2012 at 11:56 PM ^
I pick....Ken Griffey III, since we're obsessed with names here.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:56 PM ^
If he gets a last minute offer - might commit.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:57 PM ^
I just hope everyone is happy for the kid, even if its a 3*, rather than complaining because all these rumors suggest otherwise
February 1st, 2012 at 12:08 AM ^
I concur. Whoever this is, it's a kid the coaches want, and who wants to be a Wolverine.
February 1st, 2012 at 12:00 AM ^
And from the sounds of it it's definitely not Gibbs!!! I'm telling you it's Williams!
February 1st, 2012 at 12:00 AM ^

February 1st, 2012 at 12:14 AM ^
supposedly this prospect is commited elsewhere right? Then it definitely can't be Gibbs. Plus theres no way we'd close the door on Diamond before he even announced. Bring on another WR!
February 1st, 2012 at 12:11 AM ^
buckle up?
February 1st, 2012 at 12:50 AM ^
Say "Brionte Dunn" one more time M#&%*$#ker!! I dare you!! I double dare you!!"
February 1st, 2012 at 12:12 AM ^
Anybody we can bring aboard to help out, no matter the stars, is good news.
February 1st, 2012 at 12:14 AM ^
If Shane is privy to it, one might reasonable assume it's a WR or TE.
February 1st, 2012 at 12:42 AM ^
Taylor McNamara? Hmmmmmm. Doubt it but just bouncing off of your idea. Good thought. I was thinking. Someone local, TE/WR/OL or someone like Dennis Norfleet.
February 1st, 2012 at 12:17 AM ^
The big surprise is without question Gunner Kiel. At 3am he will decommit from ND and verbal to Ohio. Then in a diabolical scheme to get even with Dan Marino, he will sign a LOI to Michigan tomorrow.....hold it!!...I got my facts a little mixed up...
February 1st, 2012 at 12:22 AM ^
My hope is Bralon Addison shocks the world..because Bralon is like Braylon but it doesnt have a "y" in between the "a" and the "l" ... do you guys notice that ? that is pretty cool isnt it ?
February 1st, 2012 at 12:25 AM ^
never go full retard!
February 1st, 2012 at 12:30 AM ^
i better not wake up at 8am for no reason.
February 1st, 2012 at 12:36 AM ^
May be a name to look at. I'm pretty confident it's Williams however.
February 1st, 2012 at 12:40 AM ^
It's not Dwayne Stanford. It's not Aaron Burbridge. It's not Durron Neal. Those are three names you can cross off with complete certainty, provided it is a WR that's rumored.
February 1st, 2012 at 12:36 AM ^
According to the voices in my head it looks like V'angelo Bentley.
February 1st, 2012 at 12:36 AM ^
I'm guessing Diamond or Brionte Dunn switching over. Those are the only two high calibers that I can think of that we would have a legitmate shot at.
