Zeke Pike making the wrong kind of headlines

Submitted by MGoCooper on
Well, it's starting to look like Zeke Pike picking Auburn was a blessing in a navy blue and orange disguise. With his stock steadily dropping in updated rankings, and now this, we dodged a Kentucky bullet. Yikes! mobile.al.com/advbirm/pm_29180/contentdetail.htm?contentguid=qIwi11ts

Zeke has nothing to do with Michigan anymore, this title should have a big ol' OT on it.

Secondly, who cares hat Pike is saying about Alabama?  Honestly?  If he was an M commit and saying similar things to TSIO fans, most everyone here would gobble it up.  

He's a kid newly commited to his school firing back at fans of his school's biggest rival.

Every coach now has to choose between their players' first amendment rights and protecting them from themselves.  You can't order a recruit around until he is on campus as a player, anyway, so there is really nothing the coach can do.  

From a player's standpoint, it has to suck.  They take so much shit from the fans of the teams they didn't sign with that it has to be really difficult not to respond.  Also, there is a small subculture of people who are jealous of athletes and go out of their way to insult them on the internet at every opportunity.  

I think I would be incognito if I were in their shoes.
