OT: Drake Harris highly interested in Ohio
Urban Meyer dropped in on the Cass Tech boys and Malik McDowell today, but the biggest surprise was his visit to GR Chrisitan to see Drake Harris. Harris said he is very interested in Ohio and will be taking an unofficial there soon. This sounds like a decommitment could be coming, and that would be a crippling loss for Michigan State.

urban really is trying to stick it to Michigan by recruiting their talent. By recruiting our kids, Michigan now must spend some extra time recruiting kids that they would normally just say hey kid we want you to play at Michigan, here's an offer and the kid accepts. Now the kids will want to take extended visits and wait a little longer to committ. Just a warning, these group of Cass Tech kids really do like Ohio State more than they like Michigan. Hell a certain Michigan QB was fond of OSU more than he was of Michigan. Also, most kids in the DPS don't have the grades to get into Michigan but they can get into OSU. So Hoke and Dantonio needs to close our borders before the real snake oil salesman gets his claws on our top recruits.

Urban had December off whereas Hoke and others had to focus on bowl prep and not recruiting.

Also, we will never beat Ohio State in recruiting, they have too many athletes in their state and their coaches are buckeye supporters. They have the better program and always had the better program

Per Trieu looks like Harris is going to focus on football and mentioned Michigan first as a school to visit

Hearing from 247 that he is looking to visit OSU and Florida.

Add Bama, Fla St, Georgia, and UM to the schools he is considering in addition to OSU and Fla..

Yep, just read it on another site and those are all listed. Good call.

Actually, here is a source. From MLive:

Still, Harris plans to visit Columbus “sometime, I don’t know yet” and also plans to visit Florida.
“Maybe those two, but I don’t think anybody else,” he said.

Trieu stuff is from today that article is a little older

And 17-year olds can change their minds on a whim. UM at least has a shot - and we need top WRs.

That article was posted about 4 hours ago. If Trieu was from Twitter or something I wouldn't have any clue how to look for that.
