If he gets it reduced, what is the best case with him and Michigan? Is there a chance they will still allow him back on the team or is it over between the two parties?
January 7th, 2017 at 6:17 PM ^
As confident as he was about Isaiah Wilson?

I believe this is it. Brother thinks the depth chart at Michigan will allow him to be a legend. Mom wants him to make it to the NFL but isn't necessarily a fan of the deep south mentality (politics and all that). It is a tough decision. I hope he ends up in Ann Arbor.
January 7th, 2017 at 6:07 PM ^
To me, it seems entirely possible that he got wind of Tyrone Wheatley possibly being contacted by WMU, thus the need to "re-evaluate".
January 7th, 2017 at 4:31 PM ^
I will not get my hopes up.
I will wait until Monday. GO BLUE!!!
January 7th, 2017 at 5:25 PM ^
Guess people don't agree with me talking myself out of getting my hopes up.
I thought it was personal choice, personally.
January 7th, 2017 at 4:31 PM ^
This sounds normal.
January 7th, 2017 at 4:33 PM ^
I think he really likes Michigan, but the glory of playing at Alabama (not that playing at Michigan is not glorious but still) weighs a little.
He gets one day to decide. Hope his heart wins over.
January 7th, 2017 at 4:41 PM ^
She's the one that favors Michigan
January 7th, 2017 at 5:40 PM ^
Both his mom and brother favor Michigan.
January 7th, 2017 at 4:34 PM ^
Is it not so obvious? He is planning to go to Albion
January 7th, 2017 at 4:38 PM ^

I know, taking your time to make the biggest decision of your life. Fucking NUTS!
January 7th, 2017 at 4:35 PM ^
Sounds like a sensible kid. Even though I'd love to see him in the maize and blue, he ultimately has to decide where the best fit is for him. Probably easier to do that without fellow players, coaches, and the media asking him at every turn.

But why go home? If you are set on Alabama you get on that flight tomorrow. And I wonder with all this Wheatley to WMU talk has any implications too. Going to be a weird 48 hours.
January 7th, 2017 at 5:45 PM ^
January 7th, 2017 at 6:59 PM ^
? Why does that make it baloney? The angle was that he saves the cost of 1 flight, and the time from San Antonio to OAK back to Birmingham. Also, is it not plausible that he would want to show up to his new home a full 3 days before he has to start school to like get situated, meet people, learn his way around? And also maybe to be on campus on Monday when they go for a national championship? If he's going to Alabama, he's gotta be there on Tuesday no matter what if classes start Wednesday so flying Sunday is a pretty reasonable thing to do.

Flip a coin Najee. You are only gonna know which decision was the best in retrospect anyway.
January 7th, 2017 at 4:47 PM ^
To recap
-Najee will make a decision at the end of the AAA Game
-Najee will not make a decision at the end of the game and will just fly to his school of choice
-Tua says they will fly together
-Report says Najee will fly back to Oakland first
-Source says Najee changed his flight to Birmingham
-Michigan and Alabama fans commit suicide
-Najee will now fly back home to make his final decision
What a damn headache but THIS IS GOOD. This means he wasnt just trolling Michigan. He really is undecided

This kid is 18 years old. Grew up in the Bay Area. Jim Harbaugh is literally larger than life there. If he comes to Michigan, it's to play for Jim Fucking Harbaugh, not Ty Wheatley.
January 7th, 2017 at 4:57 PM ^
January 7th, 2017 at 5:45 PM ^
He has stated quite a few times Jim Harbaugh is the draw to Michigan for him.

Thank You....Thank You.....Thank you!!!!!!. Ty Wheatly is going no where and I am sure he has been told that by know. He was recruited by Jim Harbaugh period and that is who he will commit to. Alabama is a sleezehole institution and will stop at nothing to secure recruits. Make up rumuors, bagman bullshit which is going on right know. It sounds to me his mother and brother are two very intelligent individulas. If he is good enough he will go to the pro's no matter who he plays for. Both lines will be good enough for that. Jim Harbaugh was at his school announcing Homecoming queens, not ty wheatly. If alabama started that rumour it will blow up in their faces anyways. Coach is Ty leaving...NO saban started that....Done!!
January 7th, 2017 at 4:51 PM ^
what I'm worried about now in regards to this. Really hoping Wheatly doesn't take off causing Najee to slam the door on the thought of playing at Michigan. We need all the elite level talent we can get to fight off OSU.
January 7th, 2017 at 4:55 PM ^
Minnesota players behaving badly > Coach Claeys makes a dumb tweet > Minnesota fires Claeys > Fleck to Minnesota > Wheatley to WMU > Najee to Bama.
January 7th, 2017 at 5:19 PM ^
January 7th, 2017 at 6:09 PM ^
If this happens I will never forgive Minnesota. It will be war.
January 7th, 2017 at 5:01 PM ^
Now this Wheatley rumor comes out, reported by Alabama, and he claims he's undecided and wants to go "reassess."
did i miss something? a wheatley rumor reported by alabama?
January 7th, 2017 at 4:43 PM ^
January 7th, 2017 at 4:46 PM ^
Would you guys quit all this? It's stupid. He's clearly going to Oregon State.
January 7th, 2017 at 4:49 PM ^
then what warmups is his trainer supposed to wear tomorrow?
January 7th, 2017 at 4:50 PM ^
The Chuck Filiagi committment could may help our chance.
