TomVH: Demetrius Hart Update
I spoke with Demetrius' mom today, and she cleared a few things up for me. There was a rumor/post whatever you want to call it that had said Demetrius wasn't sure about his commitment, and that he was "working on it."
There was a slight mix up with Demetrius' enrollment with Michigan, but it has been cleared up. That was the issue, it wasn't that anyone was recruiting him harder, or anything along those lines. Everything has been straightened out, and his mom says Demetrius will be at Michigan in January.

Walking people off the ledge since October 21, 2008.
November 5th, 2010 at 11:25 AM ^
Otherwise, TomVH could be brought up on murder charges if he's deliberately walking people off the ledge and I don't believe they allowing twiting in prison.
November 5th, 2010 at 11:31 AM ^
Oh man, let me clean up this now massive coffee explosion on my desk.
Thanks for the laugh.
November 5th, 2010 at 11:35 AM ^
But with the current state of many UM fans, it wouldn't surprise me if they are attempting backflips off the ledge at this point. So TomVH would be walking them in.
/s

Combine these two (like BR said, don't want to get TVH in trouble)
November 5th, 2010 at 1:28 PM ^
maybe he meant..."talking" people off the ledge...it makes more sense...ya know...from the ledge I was just on
November 5th, 2010 at 11:45 AM ^
One should never react until Tom has weighed in. He actually does some old fashioned reporting, like talking to the subjects and naming his sources. What a concept.
November 5th, 2010 at 1:59 PM ^
That is the second piece of good news for the week. Please, please can we have piece #3 tomorrow?!
November 5th, 2010 at 5:17 PM ^
I HAVE A SUGGESTION FOR TOMVH
Tom,
When interviewing recruits, do you think that you could start slipping in this question - "Do you read michigan message boards...if so, which ones, and how often?"
These kinds of questions would really make a$$hat posters think twice before starting "rich rod is gone!!!" threads.
November 5th, 2010 at 9:08 PM ^
I like to think of Tom VH as "talking people down from the ledge..."
I think of Drew Sharp as "driving people over the ledge..."
November 5th, 2010 at 11:07 AM ^
Is that 2 days in a row?? Lets make it 3 tomorrow!
November 5th, 2010 at 11:08 AM ^
A win against Illinois can really get some momentum going for the program as a whole....
November 5th, 2010 at 11:08 AM ^
I googled "this pleases me" and this was the first result. Enjoy!
November 5th, 2010 at 11:09 AM ^
pencat?
November 5th, 2010 at 11:12 AM ^
You get some hilariously awesome picture, and I get a picture of Sarah Jessica Parker. How is that fair? F U Google.
November 5th, 2010 at 11:26 AM ^
Wait the picture he posted wasn't of Sarah Jessica Parker? Could have fooled me.
November 5th, 2010 at 11:55 AM ^
how come a transvestite donkey witch is standing next to you, and why is it wearing a dress?
November 5th, 2010 at 2:21 PM ^
Sarah (seen right) has an uncanny resemblance to this horse (seen left)
November 5th, 2010 at 9:03 PM ^
Aye yes that face. She has a slammin' body though. You got to give her that.
November 5th, 2010 at 11:26 AM ^
You mean that picture isn't Sarah Jessica Parker?
November 5th, 2010 at 11:33 AM ^
Looks like I'm the winner of the Obvious Reply Award today. Better luck tomorrow.
November 5th, 2010 at 2:36 PM ^
Timestamp says we tie! At least that's what I'll tell myself...*grumble*
November 5th, 2010 at 12:20 PM ^
You must have turned off 'safe search'...
November 5th, 2010 at 11:13 AM ^
This is supposed to be a calming thread. Now I'm going to see that thing in my nightmares.
November 5th, 2010 at 11:20 AM ^
If I had to guess? Penguin with furby ears, eagle eyes, and dog mouth. I think it's kinda cute.
November 5th, 2010 at 11:26 AM ^
Cute as in the "I will haunt your dreams" kind of way?
November 5th, 2010 at 11:29 AM ^
Much later in the search
November 5th, 2010 at 11:37 AM ^
Is that the Fairbanks jet pilot bear on the weekends?
November 5th, 2010 at 11:39 AM ^
I was wondering what Cheney was up to these days...
November 5th, 2010 at 11:43 AM ^
It's the nearly extinct happy panda! Where did you find him?
November 5th, 2010 at 11:33 AM ^
Man, Mogwai has really let himself go.
November 5th, 2010 at 11:36 AM ^
What the fuck is that?
November 5th, 2010 at 12:22 PM ^
looks like!
November 5th, 2010 at 4:00 PM ^
GVBlue_is_still_blue's avatar was second.
November 5th, 2010 at 11:08 AM ^
I think I speak for everyone when I say...
Hallelujah!
November 5th, 2010 at 11:15 AM ^
I don't think you speak for Muslims, Buddhists, Atheists, etc....
November 5th, 2010 at 11:22 AM ^
Good point ;)
But, good news like this certainly calls for some sort of joyous proclamation.
November 5th, 2010 at 11:08 AM ^
This is such great news. One Hart on the field in the NFL, another on the way. Thank you Tom!
November 5th, 2010 at 11:09 AM ^
Now that we know what Auburn pays
November 5th, 2010 at 11:38 AM ^
Well supposedly Mississippi State was told it was about $200,000 for Newton, so we better start chipping in.
November 5th, 2010 at 11:11 AM ^
I think I'll be stepping back from that ledge now. All the bad news this week about Michigan (minus the NCAA ruling) was starting to be a little much.
November 5th, 2010 at 11:12 AM ^
There are doctors who haven't done as much to lower blood pressure and prevent ulcers as TomVH.
November 5th, 2010 at 11:12 AM ^
I think the AMHG have gone away for a couple of days, now if they stay away tomorrow it will be a good end to the week.
November 5th, 2010 at 11:50 AM ^
They probably have vacation they can't carry over to next year.
November 5th, 2010 at 11:13 AM ^
Great news on two fronts.
1) Dee hasnt wavered despite a rocky couple of weeks, definitely the kind've commit we want and need right now.
2) Our admissions/enrollment office did something right. While I'm sure they do things right all the time, usually when I hear about them it is in a sad context (i.e. Demar Dorsey) but this time I can breathe a sigh of relief.
Go Blue!
November 5th, 2010 at 11:13 AM ^
Best news I've heard all week. Thanks Tom.
Now please beat the shit out of Illinois tomorrow!
