SimPLLLLLLLe Jim "6-13" Harbaugh (B1G Suspenders McKhakiPants, Cheater Cheater Booger Eater)

I don't see how this type of recruiting could help at all attract kids to come play there. Maybe it's just me but why would I want to commit there and not even know if my scholarship is going to be available a week before signing day???

So basically the moral of the story is unless you are a highly rated 4 or 5 star dont expect your offer from scUM to hold up?

I'm inclined to think the message is don't believe anything until you have the signed, legally binding document in your hand.

Smart recruits who commit early - here and elsewhere - are going to start demanding an aid agreement to sign.

Yeah, pretty much--Harbaugh told the kid it was 50/50 there would be an offer there for him on NSD? What a joke.

You give your word, you pay up.

Bingo.

IMO, this will be bad for UM beginning in 2017. If you're a recruit, you'll have to ask yourself "if I commit, will they take it from me at the end?"

That's number ten; four in the last six days.

He better hope he continues to pull this shit over the phone or someone's dad who's son just had his dreams crushed is going to punch him in the face.

Kid is sticking up for Harbaugh. Or he was hacked? Lol

A kid understanding it's business doesn't preclude his father from punching him in the face.....

Oh well that changes everything.

OK. Let me see if I got this straight. Weaver has "little or no contact" with Michigan for 7 months. When Harbaugh's standard operating procedure of just ignoring him doesn't work and Weaver doesn't decommit, he call's to tell him it's "50/50" if they will have a scholarship available for him? So even when he has to man up and tell the kid the truth, he can't man up.

Harbaugh=Coward

Two of Ohio State's top WR targets in '17... I wonder who has been in their ear about the unprecedented screwing over of recruits going on in Ann Arbor right now? I hope diddy approves.

If there's one topic upon which Urban Meyer, Mark Dantonio, and James Franklin will agree, it'll be negative recruiting against Michigan as long as Harbaugh is there pulling this crap.

Clearly this kids' lack of bars and battery life did him in.

From an NJ paper... this is getting good.
Recruits beware: Jim Harbaugh's word means nothing at Michigan
