TomVH: Ha'Sean Clinton-Dix Update
The most recent report about Dr. Phillips safety Ha'Sean Clinton-Dix (6'2", 190 lbs, 5 Star) was that he was "100% sure" about his decision to be committed to Alabama. There were conflicting reports, however, because Clinton-Dix was supposed to make an unofficial visit to Michigan with his teammates for the Illinois game. That trip was then in question, until today. I asked Ha'Sean if he still plans on coming up to Michigan with his teammates, and his response was a simple:
Yes.
I then asked if that meant that Michigan still had a chance since he would be paying to make a trip back up to Michigan, and the answer was the same, yes. This could get interesting. Clinton-Dix is the number one ranked safety according to Rivals, and number ten overall in the country.

OH BOY, Dee Hart working his magic.....
October 19th, 2010 at 10:25 PM ^
October 19th, 2010 at 10:19 PM ^
A little Ricardo love too
October 19th, 2010 at 11:26 PM ^
these Dr.Phillips boys know how to recruit! Thank You Ricardo and Dee!
October 20th, 2010 at 8:53 AM ^
That is all.
October 20th, 2010 at 11:59 AM ^
Dee Hart will be an early-enrollee.
What about HaHa? Early? Or not? A decision will have to come relatively soon, for an early enrollment.
October 19th, 2010 at 6:33 PM ^
I'm not one to get super excited for no reason but....
If anything, it's good to get the looks from these types of players.
October 19th, 2010 at 7:10 PM ^
... between your Subject line and your first sentence is great.
I agree, though, this is good, good news.
October 19th, 2010 at 6:32 PM ^
Lets get the Oil ready
October 19th, 2010 at 6:55 PM ^
Count me as one who gets annoyed when they hear "snake oil" referring to Coach Rod. Saying so is being like that little bitch Danny Hope when Rod got Roundtree. There is no snake oil... he is simply selling the merits of the entire program, and GREAT they are. Calling it snake oil is not only dismissive but is slightly demeaning.
October 19th, 2010 at 7:04 PM ^
I don't think most people on this board intend to use it in the fact that RR is a negative recruiter in any way. It's just funny to me, and most people because Danny Hope is an idiot... much like his choice of words after losing Roundtree.
October 20th, 2010 at 8:39 AM ^
Tiller said it, not Hope.
October 20th, 2010 at 1:15 PM ^
CTW82. Yet I find the comment, while misapplied to that particular reference, still holds water for Hope. I wonder who on his roster he's going to introduce RR to this year.
October 20th, 2010 at 1:18 PM ^
Roy Roundtree, after a 3-td day...
October 22nd, 2010 at 1:58 PM ^
I'm about 78% certain that Tiller and Hope are the same person, however
October 19th, 2010 at 7:06 PM ^
By they way it was Wilfred Brimley Tiller that started the snake oil crap.
October 19th, 2010 at 7:26 PM ^
Anybody else find it ironic that a guy who's avatar is women in lingerie bending over has a problem with things that are "demeaning?"
October 20th, 2010 at 8:11 AM ^
BOOM MGoRoasted!
October 19th, 2010 at 7:28 PM ^
The snake oil bit is blatantly a joke and anyone that calls it "demeaning" obviously doesn't get it and probably never will. Get a sense of humor or find a way to get over it!
Now onto this Ha-Ha news...go get him big guy!
October 19th, 2010 at 7:41 PM ^
An acceptable mistake though since they are both rockin' the stache. Give it 15 years, take away the hair, add a few more pounds, and they could be brothers.
October 19th, 2010 at 8:35 PM ^
Purdue has a new coach? I am positive Tiller is still there.
October 19th, 2010 at 9:10 PM ^
Jesus......Hope lloks like he aged a dozen years in the few he's been at the helm in West Lafayette.
October 19th, 2010 at 10:08 PM ^
They look like every other doughy pale mediocre midwestern chach on the local bowling team. Though Hope has more of the sinister middle aged church going family values touting sex predator that takes trips to Thailand to "spread the word" look. Karl Rove anyone?
October 20th, 2010 at 8:44 AM ^
I can't believe you called Tiller and Hope a chach. They are the least chachi looking people I've ever seen. Do you know what that term means?
Chachi - Ridiculously in poor taste; CHEESEY, TRASHY, TACKY.
Purdue coaches are so white bread that chachi is the last adjective I would use to describe them.
October 21st, 2010 at 10:48 AM ^
look like this...
October 20th, 2010 at 1:35 AM ^
October 20th, 2010 at 11:16 AM ^
When most of the posters here use it, it is being used sarcastically.
October 19th, 2010 at 7:57 PM ^
...they are specifically making fun of Tiller's use of it. So, if it's demeaning to anyone, it's demeaning to Purdue coaches. But they deserve it.
October 19th, 2010 at 10:41 PM ^
Heat that shit up in the frying pan.
October 19th, 2010 at 6:34 PM ^
Thanks as always Tom.
October 19th, 2010 at 8:24 PM ^
I was pretty stoked about HaHa, but Doogie just kicked it up a notch!
October 20th, 2010 at 11:17 AM ^
Picking up HaHa would be legend . . . wait for it
dary.
October 19th, 2010 at 6:35 PM ^
This could get very interesting. Thanks for the update, you made my day that much better.
October 19th, 2010 at 6:36 PM ^
for all the talk about us having no chance even if he decommited, i always had a feeling that he had some serious interest even if it wasn't public.
October 19th, 2010 at 6:39 PM ^
Is this a case of "just keep allowing wide receivers to run free and give up huge yardage and we'll be fine?"
October 19th, 2010 at 7:37 PM ^
I hope so, because that's one of the things our defense is awesome at.
October 19th, 2010 at 6:39 PM ^
thanks for some good michigan football news today Tom. I would be excited to watch this kid play in the big house
October 19th, 2010 at 6:39 PM ^
If we beat PSU and Illinois at home while he's there to see it, I think our chances will be very good with him
Go Blue!
October 19th, 2010 at 10:30 PM ^
I think if he sees how much the players enjoy being here, how excited they are for the future, and the clear fact that he would be starting next year will ultimately sell it for him.
Stadium bigger - check
starting to play night games so chance to be on primetime TV - check
stellar weight room and facilities for players - check
all my friends from highschool playing with me - priceless
October 19th, 2010 at 6:44 PM ^
If we get them to Ann Arbor for a visit, we have as good a chance as anyone.
October 20th, 2010 at 2:04 AM ^
If he's still taking visits, he's not really committed--especially when it's his second visit.
October 19th, 2010 at 6:45 PM ^
could this be like dee's stuff saying hes going to bama?
October 19th, 2010 at 6:51 PM ^
I don't rememer Dee ever paying money out of his own pocket to travel across the nation to go to any other schools. I could be wrong tho.
October 19th, 2010 at 7:37 PM ^
Ya i am sure he is paying his own way just like Dee has.../s
October 19th, 2010 at 7:41 PM ^
I know from confirmed sources that Dee paid his own way to come here. What are you trying to imply? Enjoy the negbangs hater.
October 19th, 2010 at 7:44 PM ^
I know from confirmed sources there is no reason to have confirmed sources for unofficial visits.
October 19th, 2010 at 7:45 PM ^
I know from confirmed sources that you are wrong
