Ahmir Mitchell to Rutgers
- Thread starter detroitjohn
- Start date
You wouldn't like to make a wager on the prophecy coming true in your lifetime, would you? I'm anxious for the Purdue-Rutgers battle in the toilet bowl.
Wonder if he is watching the Rutgers Wash. game or and the Michigan game ? Who is he grumbling under his breathe about ? Mom, or Chris Asch ? GBGB"74
I have a feeling Rutgers is going to be one of those annoying, Indiana-like games annually, a game we should never lose but that the opponent is always jacked up to play
He is a turd . Now he can go to Rutgers and do what he wants. Wasn't the super star in Ann Arbor. Good riddance and hope he grows up
My personal view on this is the following. JH wanted to build a NJ pipeline because there is a LOT of very good talent there - Peppers, Gary, Singleton. To do so, he was probably ok taking a few players knowing well that some may not make it. JH is smart, recruit a few players who eventually will likely get weeded out because they can influence you getting some top flight talent. Think about the fact that 3 kids from NJ - Mitchell, Hawkins, and Walker - may all likely not end up being with Michigan long term. 1 parties too much and the other 2 have academic issues. However, getting those 3 significantly improved our chances to get Gary. Quite frankly, I would take a player like Gary all day long if it means recruiting some folks around him to make him comfortable. My 2 cents

Very true going back to Bo. Taking a 3 star this year to get the 4, or 5 star next yr. GBGB"74
