The kid is just trying to make the best decision for himself, same as Harbaugh is for UM. Why wouldn't MSU offer a few of our committed recruits and put us on the defensive - don't you think Harbaugh is doing the same thing to them and other programs. Plus, if you are a committed recruit and you are watching UM's 2016 class fill up, wouldn't you perhaps wonder a little bit if there was actually gonna be a spot for you on NSD? And, might that make you make sure you had a back up plan?

No. Josh King was offered very early in the process.

No, they have every right to take whatever visits they want to before signing the LOI. It is certainly not wrong to want to make sure that you will spend the next four years of your life at the right place. People change their minds all the time.
Conversely, do you have an issue with UM flipping recruits from other schools this late in the process? If that's the case, did you criticize Roy Roundtree (or Karan Higdon for a more recent example) when he backed out last second from his commitment to Purdue? They sure were not men of their word. /s

By that token, then UM should not recruit any committed prospects ever. They haven't signed and delivered a LOI, and it's not illegal or even immoral to change your mind.
Also, coaches are paid handsomely to deal with the recruiting process. Coaches can also leave a school without transfer restrictions any time they want to unless they have some crazy buyout clause (which doesn't necessarily restrict other schools anyways). They are honestly one of the last ones I feel sorry for.

the stress and pain of his commits taking official visits, then he would establish a no-fly zone once committed, much like Hoke did his first year here. But since Harbaugh doesn't seem to mind these kids taking officials after they commit, why should you?

So tell McDoom 'no thank you' then?

February 4th is the marriage signing date.
Up until then it is just a verbal engagement. (except for early enrollees who already signed).
January 18th, 2016 at 11:32 AM ^
It's the 3rd.

.....I wish you plenty of success no matter where you go.
But, in the end, if you want to be part of something extra special, you want to be a part of this Uof M recruiting class.
You guys should relax a little, having two top 10 college football programs in Michigan is a good thing, especially because it gives our high schoolers great opportunities.
Maybe he decides to go to MSU to be closer to his "boys" which is the same reasoning we are using to entice Gary so........... who cares?
No matter who the 28-30 (or more!) recruits are, this is going to be a great class to watch develop because, under Harbaugh, they will develop.

Don't get why this got negged, this is probably the most logical response I've seen on this board to this piece of news.
January 18th, 2016 at 12:40 PM ^
is why it got negged. Calm logic often gets negged.

Step 1: Commit to MICHIGAN
Step 2: Take OV to MSU
Step 3: Troll Sparty and flip Josh King
Step 4: PROFIT

Anybody else as confused as I am?
This guy is the number 1 player in the state of Michigan, a top 100 player in the country, and a top 5 player at his position, and MSU doesn't offer him until 2 weeks before signing day? How is that possible?

What signs are those? He is taking an official visit to a school in state, he will get to go to a big basketball game because of it. He also visited MSU for their football game with Oregon.
The Rivals mods are saying he's just enjoying the process. The only thing that gives me pause is that his sister goes to school there and he's pretty tight with Corley and Vance.
I also can't figure out why MSU didn't offer him until now, but maybe it was to get him on campus. Is he a threat to flip? Sure, but there is still nothing to suggest it's likely.
