From the Michigan site...update on Cameron Saddler...talks about his last visit to UM and some of the UM players he knows. Saddler says he and Shayne have discussed it again and they are 100% sure they are going to the same school...either Michigan, Virginia or WVU.
bucks19;882634; said:Saddler said that, not Hale. Hale has recently stated that the package deal is not 100%.
Napoleonbuck;882648; said:Does anyone else think a signing day decision would be in our best interests? I can't imagine Michigan holding a spot for Saddler all the way to signing day, and I haven't really read anything from any sources that suggests Hale is all the enamored with Virginia or West Virginia. Maybe it's just me, but I think the longer this goes the better for us.
OSUBuckeye4Life;882651; said:Actually I think both stated they had a good time at West Virginia.
RB07OSU;882660; said:Odd indeed but Saddler always puts words in Shayne's mouth in about every update.
Hale said he has received roughly 40 Division-I schools but has not yet decided where he wants to attend school. He says the biggest factor in his decision will be to find a place where he can fit in immediately.
?It needs to be a program that would be good for me,? said Hale. ?If I play the way I can play, I can bring NFL coaches to me.?
Some scouting services have Hale listed as a linebacker, while others have him listed as a defensive end. Hale said if given the choice, he?d prefer to stay at linebacker, but indicated he simply wants to play football.
?I can do a little bit of everything, so I like to get moved around,? said Hale. ?The offense doesn?t know where I?m coming from.?
Another possible factor for Hale?s decision could come from Cameron Saddler. Saddler, Hale?s cousin, has also received scholarship offers from D-I schools, and there has been some talk that the pair could be a package deal. Hale, however, said that each will make the decision that is best for them.
?It would definitely be fun, just to have someone that you grew up with and played in high school with,? said Hale. ?But I have still have to look at what will be good for me.?
Hale, though, didn?t rule out choosing the same school as Saddler.
?If a school that he and I have offers from is a good school for both of us, we?ll probably both go there.?
