Mecole Hardman Decides to Not Do Mid-Season Silent Commitment (story clarified)
Story per people below: Mecole Hardman -- a 5 Star Athlete (Peppers-type recruit) from Georgia ('16) -- was originally going to silent commit during the season but not tell the media who he had committed to. He's abandoned that plan because the choice has gotten harder, which is probably a good sign for Michigan since Georgia has been the favorite.
I will not be doing my silent commitment any longer!

He frequently says, "Everything I say is a lie" in interviews.
November 23rd, 2015 at 7:15 PM ^
So was it a promise ring or some shit?
November 23rd, 2015 at 6:15 PM ^
November 23rd, 2015 at 6:17 PM ^
I think it is pretty clear he is going to Georgia Southern.

strap yourself in. It's going to be a wild ride!
November 23rd, 2015 at 6:18 PM ^
I'm always dubious of silent commitments. But this seems a decent way to signal if he is really considering Michigan.

Unrelated but sorta related, from Mgofish
Bucknuts’ Bill Kurelic spoke with a recruit being targeted by both UM and OSU and received a very interesting message from the recruit ($):
When the prospect got to Michigan he talked about their 2016 recruiting class, and again unprompted, said Michigan has “three or four commitments nobody knows about.” He said he knows about them, but as one would guess, did not name them.
November 23rd, 2015 at 6:27 PM ^
my guess is that one is Quinn Nordin and Devin Bush Jr is another. I am far more confident that the former winds up in our class than the latter.
Beyond those two, I'm not sure. Terrance Davis maybe?
November 23rd, 2015 at 6:33 PM ^
I think Walker is a silent. Davis I don't know anymore.
November 23rd, 2015 at 6:40 PM ^
Yeah, I don't know about Bush. We'll see.
November 23rd, 2015 at 7:21 PM ^
I don't understand the point of these "silent commits". To build up suspense? It's not like they can't consider other options once they're unsilently committed.....or something
November 23rd, 2015 at 6:22 PM ^
If a silent commit decommits unslilently, does a tree fall in the forest?

a decommitment, rather than a change in how he plans to commit.

He must have taken back the promise ring. Or returned it? Whatever...

November 23rd, 2015 at 7:12 PM ^
that we have Tom Brady, Derek Jeter, Desmond Howard and Charles Woodson on the sidelines this Saturday...
(But why is this guy's visit date set for Friday? Hoping that it's a two day affair - how could he come the day after T-Day and then miss The Game?)

Just stare at your coach and hope he reads your mind.

I'm so confused.
November 23rd, 2015 at 8:30 PM ^
Silent just meant he didnt tell anyone, including the school he silently committed to.
