Jordan Diamond not to Michigan per Ondre Pipkins
Per Ondre Pipkins, who I just spoke with, and his Twitter, Jordan Diamond is "100% not coming to Michigan".
EDIT: "his twitter" being Pipkins, not Diamond, just to be clear.
EDIT2: I am just going on what Ondre told me. I have no first hand sources with Diamond so I am only reporting what Ondre has said.

I finally hit my 2012 recruiting fill. I can take a few weeks off now and look forward to beating MSU, winning the B1G tourney and a #3 seed in the dance.
Great class. Yey! Done...

When I heard he and his Mommy were concerned about the linemen that were already commited my first thought was that he wasn't looking to have to compete for playing time. Been biting my tounge with regards to this kid the whole process and just couldn't care less one way or the other anymore. We need a center right now more than a tackle anyway. There a ton of really good tackles on the board for 2013 already, but in 2013 we'll only have 1 center and I really don't want him backed up by a true freshman.
Just one guys thoughts on the whole thing.
February 3rd, 2012 at 6:48 PM ^
Agreed. I'd rather have Kozan than Diamond. We could use another interior lineman in this class. Also, something didn't seem quite right with Diamond.
February 3rd, 2012 at 6:04 PM ^
Andres every year. These guys who love the drama and stage are children, not Michigan men. This class is just that, classy.

Andres Galarraga?

Part of me thinks Ondre is helping Diamond pull a BWC Army decision circa 2009.
<br>
<br>Cept Diamond has never committed
February 3rd, 2012 at 6:21 PM ^
I love PeeWee, but I think he's so excited about coming to Michigan, he's ruining all of these kids moments with their announcements. He did this with Garnett, and Diamond already once. Let them have their moments Ondre!
February 3rd, 2012 at 6:51 PM ^
What moment? There are just commiting to a school, not receiving a Heisman or an Academy Award. I respect the kids that just call up the coaches more than the ones who perform the ESPN hat dance.
February 3rd, 2012 at 6:56 PM ^
The moment of them committing to a university on a full-ride scholarship to play football. You don't think that's special? Not many people can say that they did that. Kyle Kalis said he and his family were all crying when he committed. I'd say that's definitely a special moment.
February 3rd, 2012 at 6:21 PM ^
If he chooses Michigan, this thread will look very stupid.
If he doesn't choose Michigan, good luck to him.
February 3rd, 2012 at 6:22 PM ^
Diamond is filming a documentary of this process, no? It sure would make for better TV if he was filming how easy it was to yank around otherwise intelligent/functional people (I'm taking a leap of faith on that part)...
February 3rd, 2012 at 6:22 PM ^
Whatever. More room for Diggs.
February 3rd, 2012 at 6:41 PM ^
great comment
February 3rd, 2012 at 6:47 PM ^
When we really needed him?
February 3rd, 2012 at 6:54 PM ^
Alright then, Diamond to Auburn. Gives them an OL class of six (although none of them really project to center). Hopefully they declare OL recruiting done and that leaves Kozen for us to grab up.
February 3rd, 2012 at 7:48 PM ^
Recruiting done. Ever. Those schools will take any and every player they can. Oversigning drives me crazy. Hopefully these kids get the hint and make a smart decision.
February 3rd, 2012 at 6:57 PM ^
At this point we are an hour away from his decision, I'm just going to wait and save judgement for then.
February 3rd, 2012 at 6:58 PM ^
I was a huge fan of Diamond since last summer and I thought Chris Bryant's presence was going to have a lot of influence on Mr. Diamond- and I really thought he would commit here. If we in fact do lose out on Diamond [like it sounds we are] I still personally love this class. Magnuson and Kalis [are better OL prospects in my mind] have legitimate shots at starting or at least become part of the rotation this Fall. I hope that if Diamond goes somewhere, he succeeds and then hopefully his recruitment is involved with Kozan's decision somewhat.

is weird.
It's like Brutus's head, but sideways.
Hmm.
February 3rd, 2012 at 7:04 PM ^
February 3rd, 2012 at 7:14 PM ^
I was thinking the exact same thing ... and it would help the whole "shock the world" plot .... plus Hoke's comment about 2 more pieces ...... but that could all definitely just be me twisting things to fit my liking.
February 3rd, 2012 at 7:18 PM ^
Josh Helmholdt of Rivals tweeting that he feels like Diamond is leaning towards Auburn.
February 3rd, 2012 at 7:19 PM ^
So just to clarify, at 8PM Jordan Diamond will be announcing where Stefon Diggs is going to college, right?
February 3rd, 2012 at 7:26 PM ^
I have absolutely no faith. We are on a downward roll with no sign of an upswing. No problem we had a great signing day.
February 3rd, 2012 at 7:35 PM ^
Is the announcement going to be streaming live? Link?
February 3rd, 2012 at 7:47 PM ^
is what im trying to find out.
February 3rd, 2012 at 7:36 PM ^
whatever happen to the Texas size and Alaska size piece to the puzzle?

I just ran in to Jordan Diamonds ex girlfriends sister who said that she broke up with Diamond because he is going to Michigan. She also said Diggs is going Blue to for what its worth.
February 3rd, 2012 at 7:58 PM ^
I know his ex-girlfriend's sister's uncle's barber and he said the exact opposite...
February 3rd, 2012 at 8:26 PM ^
I know his barber is from arburn
February 3rd, 2012 at 8:05 PM ^
ohhh so you must be That. Guy..... See what I did there?
February 3rd, 2012 at 8:29 PM ^
Everything today is through tweets
February 3rd, 2012 at 8:25 PM ^
I think this is a set up! He is going to go blue! Atleast I hope!
February 3rd, 2012 at 8:27 PM ^
Who's following? Need updates.

Diamond's announcement is coming up. His other 3 teammates just announced. For some reason I feel good about this one.
February 3rd, 2012 at 8:34 PM ^
I feel good by reason ur poat
February 3rd, 2012 at 8:31 PM ^

February 3rd, 2012 at 8:33 PM ^
