Possible Commit #8

Jaunted over to mgoblog this morning and they're reporting that Bryce McNeal is going to commit...  not exactly an official announcement yet, but it's nice to see an outside receiver of his calibre so interested even with all the changes and the uncertainties at the quarterback spot.

GO BLUE!

I was excited as well...until i read this...
 

Unlike bloggers, the legit press has be responsible for what it prints in this manner ... so we just now (8:30 AM EST) talked to Mr. McNeal (michigan.scout.com/2/751631.html ):
| "No, Bryce did not commit - who the heck is saying that?" |
| |
| "I just now talked to Bryce, just to be sure ... he said, "No dad, I |
| didn't commit!" |
 
| ***PART TWO** |
| |
| Mr. McNeal again: "Bryce said to me: (this is Bryce speaking) 'Dad, I
| really like Michigan, but I'm not ready to commit. I want to take a
| couple visits ... to Clemson for one'."
|
| More from Mr. McNeal: "Bryce did talk to Shavodrick Beaver last night
| ... Bryce said he's a cool guy, he enjoyed talking to him."
| |
| GBW note: we still expect Bryce and his mom and dad to visit U-M this
| summer -- Bryce had just told Sam this 2 days ago (michigan.scout.com/2/750785.html ) ... whereupon, at that point, things may get 'hot'. Bryce has also contacted Newsome BTW.

wellllllllllllllllllllll. . . if you take a look at this, you might see why people are optimistic

<b>scmgoblue on 4/19/2006: this defense will be MUCH better than many "experts" are predicting, you can quote me on that one"</b>

Thanks for the update, glad I kept the word "possible" in the title

Somewhat off-topic, I enjoy the unneccessary low blow to "bloggers" and phrases like "the legit press" by what appears to be Scout here... especially considering that nowhere in Brian's post does he say anything about Bryce officially committing, just that signs are looking good and several people reported having heard this from him, the error is in titling the post "McNeal to Michigan" he should've said something along the lines of "signs are looking good".  This whole "legit media" stuff is laughable especially coming from a recruiting site (they're NEVER wrong!)... and naturally the mainstream media has never once missed on a story before...  "Dewey Defeats Truman"...

Anywho, onward and upward!

I agree...i think Brian does a great job, and is almost always on point!

Let us not forget Herbstreit too. Side note, Thomas Dewey that lost to Truman was a cousin of mine and is actually from Owosso, MI. But back to football, this kid looks to be hinting perhaps, or maybe playing the recruiting game. Either way, if we land him, he looks to be a fine addition to next years class.

The folks over at Rivals now believe it's not a matter of "if" McNeal will commit to Michigan, but "when." He's attending Rich Rod's barbeque on the 17th, and Beaver has been in his ear ever since he (Beaver) committed.

And a Michigan grad, no less!

It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine!
