"I have to say the Michigan offer was sweet," the 6-foot-5, 240-pound, tight end exclaimed. "My dad and I met with Coach Rodriguez for about an hour, and he was a really good guy. I love the guy, to be honest."
"Their facilities are the best in the country, and the stadium is ridiculous," he continued. "I loved it there. My dad and I walked away with nothing but good vibes from the program."
"We spoke to Coach Rodriguez and he showed us how they will really use the tight end in their offense," he stated. "That was reassuring to both of us. I have to say that Michigan has a great atmosphere surrounding the program, and they have an incredible staff, all the way from the head coach down to the equipment manager. I couldn't have been more impressed."
Maybe I have him confused with another recruit, but I think his dad played there.
Nope, you're correct. He has stated in several quote including the one that LV posted above that his father played for UM. I that UM was one of the offers that I worried about the most with this kid.
Do either of you have a feel for how often a kid plays somewhere other than where his father played?
Off the top of my head it seems like players have a hard time going somewhere other than where their father played...
And just to clarify...I'm talking about cases where the father played at a decent school...not some scrub team like Western Kentucky or somewhere like that

Also keep in mind, as minor as it may seem, that Allegiant Air offers incredibly cheap flights direct from mcghee tyson to punta gorda (30 mins outside naples), making it very accessible for his family to fly up and watch him play.... You have to think that might play some sort of factor in his decision
