Got official word from Amauri Pesek-Hickson on his plans for this week and what’s next:
“After much reflection and prayer, I’ve decided to keep my options open and not sign on national signing day. It is not because I’m de-committing from Michigan, it’s simply because they will not let me sign. What kept me from signing in the early national signing day period was Coach Harbaugh and Matt Dudek wanted me to get a 3.0 my first semester of my senior year and if I didn’t then I would have to go to prep school. I got a 3.1 GPA last semester and I have a 30 on my ACT, so IT IS NOT ACADEMICS. After the players that declared for the NFL draft date passed, Harbaugh called me and told me that “we might have to go to plan B”. I asked why, and he told me that the spots they have open for the 2019 class they want to fill with DT and DE grad transfers and he wants me to reclassify and come in as a 2020 prospect.”
