So Dudek mentioned Fireworks. A week ago Matt Dudek spoke at the Event Team end of year banquet up in the Roth tower. He took a few questions from the hundreds that were gathered. One usher asked about the SEC poaching his recruits (Dax in particular) and how he felt about it. He said something about recruiting is a little different in the south with a big smile on his face. Then he said we have a week left and that recruiting story is not over till signing day. I've had to refrain from posting in all these lemon eating- sky is falling-Webb is a click baiter posts but I sure was holding out hope for Dudek, Al Washington and their crew to get it done. Go Blue!

 Am I allowed to take back any and all criticism I have levied at the program the last few days?   Is that a thing?

"It's pretty hard to view anyone who goes back and forth as anything other than a soft commit, up to and beyond the actual commitment."  -Matty Blue, 2 day ago.

Your excitement must be very tempered this morning, I mean seeing how this is not an "actual" commitment, amirite?

no, i was excited when we signed aubrey solomon and i'm excited about daxton hill.  i hope he stays here for four seasons, three of them as all-B1G and two as an all-american, then gets his degree and becomes a 1st-round nfl draft pick.  all of those things are possible. 

i'll also wish him the best if he decides michigan is not the best place for him to achieve his dreams, after all.  that's also possible.

both things can be true.

do i contradict myself?  very well then, i contradict myself.  i am large.  i contain multitudes.

that was a hypothetical question.  it's obviously NOT a contradiction and obviously entirely possible to be excited about a recruit but have misgivings about the way the recruiting process unfolded.  obviously.

Between Harrison & Hill if I could only have one it would be Hill.  He's at a greater position of need, particularly if we get Vilain healthy.  One out of two 5-stars ain't bad.  Seems like a top 6-8ish class to me.  Should be enough to out rank OSU's class this year.
