I don't think you will have to worry about Walker for now. I think the whole buddy recruits buddy deal is a little overblown, as you stated. Garys recruitment is a toss up right now.
Yeah, as a parent it's a little sad to read things like that when it comes to parents deciding "for them". If that is what ends up happening with Gary.
Agree, Gary's recruitment is all over the map. Heck Michigan even hired his former HS coach...
