Gary narrows list to 2. Still undecided
ESPN article essentially says it's down to 2 schools and there doesn't seem to be much separating them.

LOL consensus #1 recruits don't hold out until after NSD. I'm mean, he technically could, but it will never happen. He would be giving the finger to Rivals, Scout, 247, ESPN, plus the NCAA and every school that recruited him.
February 1st, 2016 at 4:42 PM ^
Both Terrell Pryor and Jadeveon Clowney waited until after signing day, right?
February 1st, 2016 at 4:46 PM ^
I did not actually. But Pryor wasn't a consensus #1. And I wasn't saying that it never happens, just that it seems highly unlikely that a kid who's been praised and supported by the entire recruiting apparatus for the past few years would do this.
February 1st, 2016 at 4:53 PM ^
Pryor was #2 on the 247 Composite:

At that point, it's splitting hairs. He may as well have been #1 for purposes of this discussion.

You did actually say "never" so you're either a) an idiot or b) a liar and in either case it's not worth trying to get into a conversation with you because you don't know what you're talking about anyway.
February 1st, 2016 at 5:20 PM ^
Well aren't you a barrel of sunshine?
Can't believe I am responding to you, but I meant "it will never happen" (in Gary's case) in the first post, and "not saying it never happens" (at all) in the second. Clearly I was incorrect because I didn't know Clowney waited, but still--all that vitriol for that?
Later Edit: Nevermind--I looked at your post history and you're always that pissy. Just one long wall of complaints and attacks on fellow UM fans for posts you deem unworthy without any of your own original thoughts.

like for a lot of people, it's already started. I'm about to join them.

Is Rashan going to do a Christian Wilkins (DT from Connecticut) who went ot Clemson last year and started as a true freshman.
Is Rashan just trying to set up some suspense since everyone was saying that he is going to michigan.

He's been to Clemson twice. Once in spring 2015 and again last weekend.
February 1st, 2016 at 5:25 PM ^
So nearly a year between visits. The math says the good guys win.
February 1st, 2016 at 4:47 PM ^
LOL! Internet/social media has made recruiting a stressful process.
I don't ever remember ever being this anxious and nervous about recruiting prior to the internet years.....my word time sure has changed.....and now I feel old just thinking of the past years.....life sucks.....screw you internet recruiting!!!
LOL!!

...or a down-to-the wire recruiting battle with a southern school. I'll assume it's Clemson and be pleasantly surprised if it's Michigan.

My girlfriend asked me to choke her when we're having sex. I said, "Baby. Maybe I'm old fashioned but why not when we're having dinner?"

What's funny is that Michigan insiders explicitly said that there would be a wave of optimism coming from the enemies' side immediately after his visit to Clemson (even predicting a brief surge of Clemson ballz which somehow hasn't happened yet), and that Michigan fans shouldn't lose their shit over it. And yet, predictably, here Michigan fans are losing their shit over it.

for football games.
No easy flights from Newark to anywhere near Clemson. Really, Clemson is a tiny town (population 14,000), and very remote.
Almost all the flights from Newark, NJ, to Greenville, SC, require a stop and a plane change. Almost no non-stop flights. Total travel time can be more than 6 hours. And then there is a car ride grom the Greenville airport to Clemson that will take another hour..
Newark to Detroit Metro, and then a short car ride to Michigan Stadium, would make it a lot easier for Ms. Coney to see her son play on Saturdays.
Just sayin'...
February 1st, 2016 at 6:00 PM ^
February 1st, 2016 at 6:29 PM ^
...unless you consider a 2.5+ hour drive after a flight to be easy.
And remember, the airport in Atlanta is on the southeastern edge of the Altanta metro area, which means Ms Coney would have to first fight through Friday evening Atlanta rush hour traffic before taking I-85 to an exit 12 miles south of Clemson, SC.
Huge PITA.
February 1st, 2016 at 6:45 PM ^

But in a close call, how hard it is for mom or family to travel to see games is not outside of the calculation.

No, just that the typical post-visit good vibes died down because USC isn't a serious contender.
February 1st, 2016 at 7:00 PM ^
He just wants the suspense to hold until Wednesday

He's made 2 visits to Clemson that were like 9 months apart. Meanwhile, he's been to Michigan like 5 times, including a couple of weeks ago on his own dime despite the fact that he probably saw everything the campus and school had to offer by then. His 2 best friends are going to Michigan. Every insider believes Michigan's the pick (or at worst it's 50/50). But his last visit to Clemson was enough to sway him? I don't buy it.

He should pick Michigan because it's the best and the other school he's considering stinks!!!!
