'13 VA RB Derrick Green (Michigan commit)

[bignewt]

to recruit for the big orange? I find that suspicous to say the least.

 

[LebanonVolunteer]

I hope it's true. Would be a big deal for him to show up with family in tow. I would like our chances alot better if he shows up.

boom?!?! :unsure:

Uhhhh yeah

 

[AV_12]

Hope he is right.... But I'll believe it when it happens.

very suspicious. why would someone who, publicly at least, has no ties to any school help recruit for one

 

[Fleetwood1104]

Funny thing is some have stated system is the biggest thing holding DG back from UT, but unless Hoke and AB are going to return to I formation or two back football they are using the same system CBJ is bringing to UT.

hoke is supposed to be going back to i formation and a power running game but personnel the past two years just didn't really allow for it

If I remember correctly, I think I read something when Hoke was hired that their goal after a year or two (post Robinson basically) would be to run at least 50% of the snaps from under center. Now that doesn't automatically equal I-form or two back sets but it's more likely to happen at UM than it will under Butch here.

I would be shocked if true but the only reason to think of is if he thinks that is where he will end up at and wanted to recruit for them. I will be shocked if he actually commits here.

 

[orangesoda]

i have a good feeling about Green!!!

 

[VolFromNashville]

I want to believe. But it's that special time of year when people come out of the blue with info or "sources" on recruits. Grain of salt people

i can see that but at that point just go ahead and pull the trigger and announce, would have a much further reaching impact on recruiting

Does Green have an internet girlfriend from Hawaii that is coming too? Rumor is she hasn't been feeling well recently.

Green is from the south. In Michigan they don't have sweet tea. No southerner will go three to four years without sweet tea. This will be the deciding factor.

blasphemous

You're an abomination. Don't come in here sh!tting on my hopes and dreams by trying to poke holes in my flimsy logic.

Don't hate. I still like all things fried.

Same.

 

[VolFromNashville]

Nothing like an ice cold glass of sweet tea in the summer

 

[BlueHalo]

Michigan is a great school and has a program whose tradition speaks for itself. I just don't see us swaying the momentum they seem to have in this recruitment.

As far as Ann Arbor/Michigan in general, I couldn't and wouldn't live there. But to each their own.

Maybe abomination was too strong a word.

Fyp

 

[RockyTopForMe]

Sweet tea isn't my fit either. I'd rather have the southern fried tradition.

 

[VolFromNashville]

Fyp

cooler of...? beer? Sweet tea? Haha
