“It’s not an open recruitment really, it’s just the same four schools and he’s going to take a week or so to decide,” Smith was in "no rush" because the recruiting period doesn't end until the end of April.

While we hope that these kids see the light and appreciate how much Coach Harbaugh and staff will develop these kids, but what amazes me is that kids who think they have a shot at playing on Sundays, don't appreciate the value in playing "up north" vs, playing in the sunny states of the SEC/ACC/Big 12 (minus 2) and the Pac 12.  IIRC, the following cold weather teams do not play in domes:

  • Chiefs
  • Broncos
  • Patriots
  • Packers
  • Bears
  • Ravens
  • Bills
  • Bengals
  • Browns
  • Giants
  • Jets
  • Eagles
  • Steelers
  • Redskins

Thus playing in the B1G helps acclimate these southern kids better.

Exactly what value does playing up north during college provide for going to play up north for an nfl team?  The players like being in the south because it is more fun to go to college at a campus that is sunny all year round, where there is a beach nearby and the women wear sundresses all year.  It's not like a souther california summer is any worse weather wise than a Michigan summer and the winter is a hell of a lot warmer. And hell outside of like green bay even the coldest weather teams are still playing in 50 degree weather for at least half the season.

If my memory is recollecting correctly, I thought he added Texas A&M for the last weekend the week prior.. It was a last minute add-on and why most people were surprised of the visit...
