COP, I will no longer announce my commitment at the AA game but will announce within the next 2-3 weeks #StayTuned @BleacherReport

He's making a Bleacher Report announcement video. I saw that he was talking highly about the beautiful women in the south before taking a dig at Michigan for lacking them. Twitterz, but that didn't fill me with confidence...
Edit: Here's said tweet - https://twitter.com/LetmeRockk_/status/802982306722050048

He's not needed.
November 28th, 2016 at 8:45 PM ^
I still want him.

He also had some very PRO Mich tweets during The Game. Especially regarding the officiating. But then again you'd have to live in Ohio to not see what obv went down there. I still think we get him.
November 28th, 2016 at 6:42 PM ^
Theyes distract. And for the record there are some absolutely beautiful women in Ann Arbor. Michigan doesn't center their visits around women like many southern schools so hopefully his judgement isn't clouded. Academics, football, alumni...those are the things that matter. Every school has women. Not suprised but a little concerned if this is in fact a real concern for this young man. We kids infatuated with beating Ohio State not ones worried about what the girls look like. I hope this talented young man is the former.
November 28th, 2016 at 6:45 PM ^
It's about as fruitless as getting a call in Columbus wearing a winged helmet.
November 28th, 2016 at 8:07 PM ^
The proportion of attractive women in the city you decide to play college football shouldn't even be in the top 5 reasons why you would decide on a program. That being said, you are correct...there are some attractive women in AA, but dear Lord have you spent time in the South!? You can't throw a dead cat without hitting a beautiful woman. Having lived in MI and in the South, it isn't even close. But Tarik if you read this, disregard EVERYTHING I just wrote and GO BLUE!!!
November 28th, 2016 at 9:22 PM ^
I've never understood this argument. There are hot girls everywhere, period - especially at a large D1 school. If that is a consideration, priorities may be a bit off.

Presumably to beat Oliver Martin to the punch
November 28th, 2016 at 6:48 PM ^
I read a couple weeks ago he still wasn't even a take for Bama. Has that changed?

Yeah I'm wondering if anyone in the know could chime in on whether this is a good or bad thing for Michigan.
November 28th, 2016 at 7:01 PM ^
But I'd be happy with just DPJ and Nico. It seems like we could use the spots for the OL and DL because there are so many commits and still more offers. If we have to take a 3rd (or 4th because Hawkins) I would like Martin. I love the slot guys who catch anything near them.
Again, the staff knows best, but I'm not going to freak out if we miss on Black.
November 28th, 2016 at 7:14 PM ^
Yes but in the slot we already have Perry who has proven his worth, a budding star in McDoom, and the yet to be determined Nate Johnson. All are back for the next two years minimum barring unforeseen circumstances. Black, DPJ, are outside guys to replace the outgoing Darboh and Chesson. I think Black would be of more use than Martin in my personal opinion especially with the similar Hawkins (assuming he's not a safety). Plus the slot in this offense isn't exactly a HUGE need with all the TE and FB options we already have.
November 28th, 2016 at 7:26 PM ^
then he'll be announcing in the next few weeks too.
November 28th, 2016 at 8:35 PM ^
I'm pretty sure he can still announce at an all-star game if that's what he wants to do. Schools typically will just hold off on adding him to the student directory so it doesn't spoil the surprise.
November 28th, 2016 at 8:02 PM ^
I'm fine with DPJ and Black if we can't have Nico Collins. All three outside guys? I dunno. I'm only saying Nico because he's from Alabama and it would be great to stick it to those assholes.
November 28th, 2016 at 9:41 PM ^
Nico is also an outside guy based on size and skill set. I do think Michigan will get all three as well, but again that's just my opinion. For what it's worth I believe that Black will redshirt for us next season if he does sign here. This is completely a baseless projection, I thought Crawford would also redshirt this year...shows you what I know. I view all of DPJ, Collins, Black are outside receivers due to size (Black, Collins) and athleticism (DPJ) I think DPJ also has the size but he is a Z receiver to me and would then be off the line, where he wouldn't need to rely on length to beat press. Smaller shifter guys such as McDoom are slot ninjas and are held off the line to give them room to juke or run speed outs, also to motion them in for the end arounds and fly sweeps and such.
November 28th, 2016 at 8:02 PM ^
We also have Crawford who's in the slot I believe.
November 29th, 2016 at 8:22 AM ^
Crawford plays on the outside. I think he's potentially our WR1 next year. If DPJ and Nico Collins commit, they'd be in the mix with him, Drake Harris and Moe Ways as well.

November 29th, 2016 at 8:44 AM ^
That's my understanding of the WR group as well. I was hoping to see a lot more Moe Ways this year, but even though we didn't I still see Ways taking over the Darboh role and Crawford filling the Chesson role. Perry and McDoom in the slot. Freshmen will play and probably play a good chunk.
November 28th, 2016 at 7:18 PM ^
December 9-11 weekend is purported to be a big one for UM visitors. That may just line up with this particular announcement.
November 28th, 2016 at 7:30 PM ^
The finest women aren't in the South. Maybe in Miami or Dallas. Other than that you are looking to bump uglies with incest children at an alarming high percentage rate. It gets really interesting when the father is quite possibly the grandpa too. The most intelligent women believe that the sun sets in the North and rises in the West. It's also fact that Asia is across the Atlantic Ocean and every kind of soil is called mud. Yall have a good night!
November 28th, 2016 at 7:35 PM ^
Also, OT Aaron Banks announces Dec 9.
November 28th, 2016 at 7:40 PM ^
Cesar Ruiz announces Dec. 18th. Ambry Thomas will be in the next 2-3 weeks also.

Thank you it's my first thread :)

How the fuck have we gotten to the point where high school football players have verified accounts on Twitter?
November 28th, 2016 at 9:07 PM ^
It's really fucked.

Twitter opened up verification to anybody a few months back, so this isn't that weird since lots of these big recruits are the victim of fake accounts.

year (I think his knee is limiting him more than anyone is letting on because his explosiveness has waned) and Darboh's physical & skill metamorphosis this year, these guys should jump at joining UM. Add in Speight/Peters/McCaffrey ability with JH's offense, UM really seems like the premier school do a WR. Plus Fisch knows the route to the NFL as well.
Sure Bama has Julio and Cooper, but they were elite recruits from the start. USC has also had some great talent at WR lately. Baylor is a mess. OU isn't a player for our recruits.
UM is on the verge of an explosive O if the OL can become proficient and the QBs throw a good deep ball.
November 28th, 2016 at 11:45 PM ^
My concern is OL
November 29th, 2016 at 12:41 AM ^
I was just reading through his twitter, he seems very pro Michigan. He seemed just as upset about the calls as we were. Also, it reminds me how everyone knew Michigan won that game. The pain won't go away.
November 29th, 2016 at 1:11 AM ^
Will definitely ease the pain. Plus a great Bowl win and I can start the new year in style.
GO BLUE!!

He just recently named alabama the leader.
November 29th, 2016 at 10:07 AM ^
Odd no quote of him saying Bama is his leader. However the writer continues to write I think he'll pick Michigan.
November 29th, 2016 at 10:38 AM ^
Alabama is the favorite. Oliver Martin will be the fallback?
