Treadwell tweet re commitment timeline
Take this for what it's worth:
@SuccessfulQuon: So much going on my decision coming soon.
Premium content has been issued from Oregon...all of it looks good from their perspective, but I don't think it's based on anything more than circumstantial evidence...there aren't any additional direct quotes.
RT @SuccessfulQuon Wonder who's going to be the quarterback of them team im on? Shane
Are we sure he isn't just deciding between regular and honey nut cherios?
not really sure the exact rules about premium content... but lets just say that those with WolverineNation access over at ESPN can read some TomVH thoughts on this... he's had a chance to speak with Laquon about his tweets...i think its ok to comment that the tweets are definitely not about a honey nut vs regular cheerios decision.

That's good.
Because you really can't lose with Honey Nut or regular Cheerios. I'm an avid Cheerio-er, and I usually buy both types (none of those new-fangled flavors, though) and alternate every other box. They're both so good, and by the time I've finished one box, I'm excited for the other. I get more value out of the regular version though, since they're more often available in the big family size boxes. And recently they've come with a children's book inside, so that's a plus.
A bowl of Heart Healthy Cheerios is always a great way to start the day
Is it too early to buckle up? I think it might be, but safety first is key right? I'll let all of you decide.
"it's a place i want to be and a place i need to be, what to do".........
The one that really caught my eye:
Shane Morris need to text me back!
he does commit.
He's been infatuated with M for a year now. No one has really touched M in his mind in that time. I can't blame the kid for wanting to go out and see other campuses. But, I think the kid is blue inside and out.
Latest tweet from Laquon:
"Its a place i want to be and its a place i need to be. What to do?"

Sounds promising, but he's still a high school kid and could be referring to Cedar Point.
Tim Sullivan:
Good news for Michigan in the Laquon Treadwell sweepstakes?
Followed by a link to rivals.com. I don't have a subscription so...
Steve Wiltfong of 247 has this thread going on LaQuon, and just tweeted that he's talking to him now. If any updates do come soon, this would be a good place to look.

But if I really did love UM, I'd commit to save my spot before someone, aka Alvin Bailey, takes it for me.
Milking the recruiting process? You do relize it's only July? The kid hasn't even started his Senior year of High School.
...and it's not like we're forced to read his tweets.
Take your time Laquon...just pick Michigan in the end.
that I agree with your comment.
Alvin Bailey, who has stated that distance from home will be a factor and who's being recruited by a bunch of other schools, too?
Yeah, I guess you've got a point. It was a good thing Chris Fox committed before Laremy Tunsil took his spot, too...
The big question I have, is why can't we seem to pull in big time guys at a skill position of such need like wide reciever. Don't get me wrong, I like the recievers we have recieved commits from, but I would think, with Shane and the coaches, big time 4 or 5 star guys would be salivating to come here. Also, how in the world can ND always have great recruiting classes when they completely suck year in and year out. Why would any top notch athlete want to go there?
All top recruits are Catholics and have excellent grades. It makes sense.
Notre Dame has a stud THROWING quarterback recruit every year. Michigan has had Nick Sheridan, Steve Threet, Tate Forcier, and Denard Robinson for the past four years. These kids haven't seen Michigan have a legitimate passer and receiver since they were in about 7th grade.
Shane Morris is a step in the right direction, but Hemingway's 34 receptions and Gallon's 31 aren't very convincing for guys who can go to Oklahoma or Oklahoma State or USC...
There should be a disclaimer on your post: *Projected stud QB
Logic says you're right. And Treadwell would be proof positive. But it can't be emphasized enough: teenage kids don't tend to take the long view. Right now, when many WR prospects think of Michigan, they first think of Denard-ball. But once kids start seeing M throw the ball more -- either via Gardner or Shane -- then the program will go back to being WRU.
I encourage anyone to go to rivals site, go to Treadwells profile, and look at his pics from mid/late 2011, and look at the recent one posted i beleive today.
Treadwell got ridiculously RIPPED/HUGE in 9 months. Incredible. Don't know if anyone noticed this.
Wiltfong just posted a VIP thread with a comment from Treadwell about all this. I'm not a member so I can't read it, but anyone who is, here's the link.

He basically says that he's very close to a decision, but not sure if he will be announcing at The Opening.
Mods: If that gives away too much, feel free to delete and spank me.
I think the post should stay but please leave the S&M out of future posts.
I'm not well-versed in the twitter syntax. Did the hastag #134 come from LT or Sarah?
The #team134 hashtag coming from either LT or Sarah can only mean good news. I'm getting no work done now. Commence F5 barrage.
Hearing from ESPN Treadwell will not be out there until 7 so you might want to give F5 a little break...then again, maybe not?
Commence Freak Out! JK, but seriously...good news.
Ah yes, here it is.
@SuccessfulQuon: So much going on my decision coming soon.
Crack job though, Sarah.
I'll take an actual on-topic quote over a cryptic tweet any day. And considering that this entire thread was devoted to interpreting that tweet which Sarah just de-mystified with a brief conversation (that she provided for free, unlike the recruiting sites), I'd say nice work Sarah.
Alright. It was mostly a joke. But I think you are overselling (in a Magnusian way) her tweet to state that she de-mystified LT's tweet.
I hope Treadwell joins Michigan's '13 recruiting class, and Sarah Hughes breaks the news. Sorry Sarah, keep up the good work.
Love,
Mike
You are so right... I can't believe she didn't clear up the Cheerios question.
/s
I would never oversell a Sarah Hughes statement.
lol'd at my desk at work after reading this, causing co-workers to look in my general direction. Thanks.
Edit: lol @ the Flamebait too, as I actually thought it was pretty funny. no /s.
And make the fonts 25% next time when you open mgoblog.com.
Could all of this just be Laquon seeking some attention during the Opening?
that would be IMPOSSIBLE!!
Laquon Treadwell@SuccessfulQuon
Wonder who's going to be the quarterback of them team im on? Shane !
Well, there's a 7-on-7 tournament at the Opening...so that's probably all it means.
