[jistevens]

[Orangedogsrule]

[orangeluvr]

Please contain contaminated meltdown waste to this area.

estu= esfu :the_finger:

 

[cjbongoinstructor]

If he chooses auburn then those that are saying they aren't expecting much (bc they assume Michigan), will end up having a meltdown just bc it's another sec school that isn't us and that lost their RB coach last week

 

[I_Bleed_Orange77]

Green posted on twitter he was "going to shock the world" today...we will see. Announcing Michigan won't shock anyone...

Picking UT wouldn't either. Picking auburn would be a bigger shock.

 

[VOLNPA]

Shocking the world=ohio state

 

[BillyHoyleVol]

Cool thread...

 

[berry4heisman77]

Why is a meltdown inevitable when we already know he isn't coming here? Now if there was tons of optimism of him coming here I could see it. But this kid has done nothing or said nothing in the last few weeks that has me at all optimistic about him choosing us.

Dude it doesn't matter it's volnation, even if we were ranked #1 in the country and coming off back to back national championships, if we lost by 1 point to a team in the top 15 they would have a meltdown. No matter the circumstances VN as a whole will try to find a way to meltdown mark my words.

 

[Wilson27]

How could this kid do this to us? Doesn't he know we don't have any backs and he can play immediately? I thought Graham had the magic touch! Are we ever going to get a 5 star commit EVER again?
Sorry, thought I would jump in before the rush started.

Not just Volnation. Ever been around a Bama fan when they lose?

 

[GetEmVols]

Picking UT wouldn't either. Picking auburn would be a bigger shock.

Most experts say its michigan but maybe auburn could sneak in

 

[theutvolunteers]

i am sure if we dont get him then he will be labeled as slow and not SEC type RB by some

No doubt

 

[GetEmVols]

Whoever he picks today, is where he signs. He has made that very clear.

He also said he was going to shock the world. If he is a man of his word then he isn't going to michigan.

 

[sanddune50]

I agree that he's gonna go to Michigan, but asinine doesn't even begin to explain that comment...

You're right Green is so witty he's referencing comments from 20 years ago made by an NBA journeyman in order to appear clever, and provide clues to the Michigan faithful.

I'm also hearing he's wearing maize shoelaces, today, because he doesn't want to totally give away the secret, but still wants to drop subtle hints.

Referencing the 30 on 30 piece on ESPN in 2011, I'm sure a lot of young African American athletes related to that group with the way ESPN presented the piece. If you think otherwise, to quote ole Skippy Bayless would be asiten, asieleven,etc.

So while you may have felt you had a point and an opportunity to feel clever with your response, it is apparently obvious you are out of touch with what's trendy and cool in today's society. Nice try though :hi:

 

[Fleetwood1104]

I'm just as hopeful as you guys and think he'll do well either place. Good luck

 

[sanddune50]

i know i'm gunna show my age here but the SHOCK THE WORLD comment started when Ali beat Liston way back when.

I think that was Shook up the world.

 

[berry4heisman77]

The "post I shot my mouth off in an attempt to be funny but failed miserably" thread to start soonlol: :good!:

 

[sanddune50]

Ali said "shook", not "shock".

Beat me to it.:hi:
