ttun recruiting (all classes)

What are the chances Underwood actually signs with Michigan? This feels like a situation where the kid flips again at the last minute. Has never seemed like he actually wants to be at Michigan. Unless they just came up with enough money where he couldn't say no,

Come in, get paid, demand to redshirt so he doesn’t look terrible surrounded by bums next year, transfer to LSU and get paid again.

Pre NIL this absolutely woulda been a possible landscape shaking thing, if it was organic. With NIL it’s not though. This is purely a $$$ acquisition. You still have a coaching staff who has to prove they aren’t in over their heads, they had nothing to do with this. Underwood might bring along a couple of his buddies but in the end it’s gonna take a lot more money for Michigan to convince any other high level guys to jump on board.

Timing on their late recruiting stuff is weird to me. It almost seems like a front being put on in order to sway opinion that everything is normal right before the NOA comes out.

Everything Scum does seems orchestrated around minimizing their predicament.
Exactly what was my on my mind. Throw money out before the lack of institutional control sanctions come down, probably not a coincidence. I'm probably swimming into the ttun recruiting thread, but I think that's what is happening here with Underwood.

Yep and it will help them ramp up their victim narrative “the NCAA witch hunt ruined our great recruiting class” rabble rabble.
