Eh, much ado about nothing, imo.

I give almost as many fux about this as I do about anyone who whines about having the score run up on them (regardless of whether it's legitimate butthurt or not).

Incidentally, I find the story about the Tennessee recruit who was sent home from his Auburn visit for actively recruiting other kids to Tennessee a lot more humorous.....

TSUN open and honest recruiting method.

recruiter: Hi son. Well let me start off by saying that our worst dorm room at UM is better than this shithole you live in now.

kid: What's wrong with our house?

recruiter: Nothing that a bulldozer couldn't fix in short order. BTW, your mom has a nice rack, but she dresses like a whore.

kid: That's my mom you are talking about!

recruiter: Yeah, I've seen worse. At least she is not as bad as that ugly sister of yours. I can't tell the difference between her and your mangy mongrel dog.

kid: I think maybe you should leave.

recruiter: I haven't even told you what I think about your dad yet.

kid: My dad is dead.

recruiter: LOL. I wasn't sure if you knew who he was. Let's face it kid, we would be doing you a big favor by letting you anywhere near our campus. I doubt if you can make the grades, but we have people that can make that work, wink-wink.

kid: Leave now!

recruiter: We'll be in touch.

I felt compelled to bring myself out of my self-induced sports hibernation (no football to me means no sports, LOL) to comment on this Mattison/O'Neal thing.

If for at any reason we're all wondering about the why of the reaction (other than it being scUM, and scUM SUCKS)....here's the why (from the wayyyyyyyback machine of August 23rd, 1990):

Purdue's football team has lost sophomores Bryan Madden, Kevin Strickland and Abe Hoskins this season because of academic ineligibility, Coach Fred Akers said Wednesday.

And then you come into a man's home and basically say the same thing to his son? Yep, that's going over well...

Okay, there's more on this. About his grades....the kid says:

Now some Michigan fans saying I don't have grades come on! 3.4 core gpa I think I'm doing just fine!

Just an FYI - here in OPS, that's an A- average. Not bad for a kid at an inner city metro school.

But that's not all the kid says. He also said his father wanted him to go to TSUN because the degree would carry him farther than if he went to Nebraska.

I get the logic. Apparently, that's not what the kid is thinking:

Abe Hoskins said they told Michigan not to waste the money to have head coach Jim Harbaugh come in for a visit this week because they were leaning toward Nebraska and just listening to U-M.
Ironically, Hoskins was the one pushing Michigan on his son because of its academic reputation.
"I was leaning toward Michigan," Neal's father said. "Academics, stats. My thing is he might not ever play again in his life, but that degree is going to take him everywhere."
Neal wasn't buying the pitch quite as much.
"I know they wanted me to come and play there, they wanted to put me to play with (recent Nebraska flip) Reuben (Jones) and put me in scheme and explain academically and this and that what's came out of Michigan, the connections and all of that," he said. "I'm like, here in Omaha, Neb., we've got Warren Buffett, so that's all we need, pretty much."

With Mattison not being allowed to comment on the whole situation, there's really not much to even discuss. Not sure if GM will ever get to tell his side of the story. Until that happens, all we get is this kid and his dad on social media telling their side of the story.


Good luck to him. I hope he takes full advantage of the college life and gets his degree.
