Monday Visitors

Right now I have WR Laquon Treadwell, WR Shelton Gibson, and 2014 DE/LB Dante Booker Jr on campus today.

Here is a picture of Treadwell at OSU from this morning: http://t.co/FvuIWkYE

Sounds like he enjoyed meeting Urban. I don't know how a kid couldn't like Urban.

I hope all the visits are going well. With Foster's reportedly not-so-good visit from the weekend, Gibson and Treadwell are very important to this class.

Gibson for sure, would LOVE to get Treadwell just because of how badly scUM wants him (I read some article on Mgoblog I think where they said he was their number 1 must get for this class).

That's right Treadwell, we've got a Crystal Football, you won't find that in Ann Arbor.

Why was Foster's visit reportedly not good? What happened?

Squirrel-

Check out pages 12 and 13 of the Forum post on 2013 Offers/Commits. Seems like Foster has a bit of an attitude problem and is not big on academics and rubbed the coaches the wrong way from what I gathered. We wil probably hear more about this I would imagine.

IMO even though we are going after a few different WR's James Quick is flying under the Radar... have you seen that guys film... ABSOLUTE STUD!  and from what i hear... he like OSU a lot!

While we're talking about WRs, I'm still curious about Devon Allen after seeing his recent times in the hurdles.  Is he still on our radar, Alex?

Just cooked Treadwell's wings at Woody's. Minding my own business at work then suddenly he and his entourage were 3 feet away from me

So if he complains about the food we know who to go after now.

But seriously that's pretty cool.

Have some info on Fosters vist per VIP Bucknuts. Foster has cleared the record (from his side at least) that he enjoyed his visit. He deffinately did not seemed overly impressed. Said "It went good...it was like all my other visits." He said the only thing he complained about was having to get up early to make the vist. Dont know if he had to drive in from PA or not but thats what seems to be getting blown out of context here. IMO this kid does seem a lil on the arrogant/cocky side with a hint of intitlement too. If he is not a good character kid or deosent seem to be the right fit, in Urbans eyes, I trust we will deffinately move forward without him. There are other WR's out there for us that will be the right fit for the system!!

Hey, went to same HS as Jevon Kearse and in his Junior year you can see how much of a natural freak he was. He had just a rediculous wingspan and size!

If he commits because of the wings, you're going to be busy the next 3-4 years.

Alex, are you going to have a Treadwell interview on the way? Just curious.  Also, his most recent tweet seems like his vist went well (to say the least).

Really hope we land Treadwell. Especially after it sounds like Foster may not be the fit we thought he would be.

Here is a pic from Quon on his visit. Looks much better in Scarlet & Gray than the Piss & Blew.

Hail I know he was thought of as UM lean, but his tweets from the visit today were pretty positive he even ended his last one with #GoBucks. You cant be feeling as comfortable about him as you were yesterday. It would seem as if OSU has worked its way into the conversation at least, I really hope Alex is able to get in touch with him for a post visit write up.

Bj Mullens over... on 9 Apr 2012 - 10:31pm #

Osu definitely gained some ground today, but I'd still say he's a UM lean, just not as big of one as yesterday.

 

-Don't read into tweets that much either, usually aren't always worth gold.

I have a question.....how do we EVER know who a kid is "leaning" towards?

Bj Mullens over Sully's picture
Bj Mullens over... on 9 Apr 2012 - 11:04pm #

He's said in the past that UM was his leader, so its assumed he favors them atm.

I agree w/ Jasonbuck.  If we can't trust what they say, how do we EVER know who a kid is leaning toward.

JasonBuck on 10 Apr 2012 - 11:46am #

Yah, I just know when I was 16-17 I changed my mind more times than I can count before I ever came to REAL decision.  First it was working right after high school, than to college to play football, than the Army, and I think I boucned between those ideas for at least a year before I finally decided to join the Army.  Now I'm not comparing it to "me" or the "average" person, but how do we ever trust what a "kid" is saying about who is leaders are, I think we've seen time and time again "recruits" changes their minds.  I like the whole "leaning" term, but just makes me laugh every time I see it.

A recruit's opinion can change as often as Ohio weather.  He has said Michigan is his favorite many times, but he has also, at times, said he has no favorite.  He has been to Michigan 4 or 5 times and is supposedly "stopping by" tomorrow.  At least one of those visits was with his mother.  I still like Michigan's chances, but he's far from a lock.  He's visiting Oklahoma for their Spring Game on Saturday.

@Corveyer

It feels like you just watched your sister go on a date with the biggest Dbag you know.  You know he's only after one thing, but you have to hope she remembers what she was taught, and, in the end, makes the right decision.

Everything I've heard is saying it's going to be a while.  I don't know an exact date, but after his season, I would imagine.  I haven't heard anything about it being as late as NSD, but I wouldn't be shocked if it was at the all-star game he plays in.

Thanks, that could make things interesting. If it takes him that long it could be the first real drawn out recruiting battle between Meyer and Hoke as I'm sure they both want him very bad. Great player but everything thing I have read and seen suggests he's a great kid off the field as well.
