Ferns Commits To Michigan

  • OSUmidwest said...

    Two names.. Dante Booker, who is the #1 ILB in the country and Reakon McMillian who is a 5 star. No one gives a crap about Ferns in buckeye land. Michigan last year had 17 kids from Ohio on their roster, 16 of those OSU never offered and half most is Ohioans never even heard of. Seriously I think some of those kids didn't even start on their high school team. Take Ferns, Dante would smack him like a MAC truck.

    Just LOL. Can't even respond as you would not understand.

    michigan would be non-existent without ohio, great pickup though

    If Ohio wasnt such a dreary hellhole, kids wouldn't be in such a hurry to commit to Michigan.

    So 16 of those 17 Ohio players that didn't have OSU offers suck, even though they beat OSU last year? I'm sorry, I don't follow that one.

    Never Lose Hoke

  • pappy121 said...

    I do not find it very mind boggling. People I think tend to forget that Hoke recruited mostly Ohio at Ball State. There he got MAC talent kids and treated them great. I find it funny when people claim Urbs lost the fence around Ohio. Tressel would of too.

    So either way you admit to the fence being gone...? So does it really matter I think the point still stands regardless. Good for UM, bad for OSU.

    Me thinks you've never seen Ferns. Dude is 16 and already looks like one of the Klitschko brothers.

    Ohio State would be even more nonexistent without Ohio. See how that works? And, yes, it is a great pickup. Thanks. Now get back to work and grow some more for us because we'll be back soon.

    Huge get for the Wolverines. I think Ferns can have a heck of a career on either side of the ball. One advantage of landing almost the entire 2013 class so early in the process is that Michigan has been able to focus more time and attention on the 2014 prospects. Hopefully it continues to pay off.

    With this commit from Ferns, I wonder if the coaches take some other ones now they have been holding back on? If so, could see another fairly soon I would suspect.

    Since June 10, 2011, Hoke has landed eight Ohio kids with Ohio State offers (Strobel, Kalis, Wormley, Thomas, McCray, Smith, Gedeon, Ferns). In the TEN (!!!) classes from 2002-2011, Michigan landed SEVEN Ohio kids with OSU offers (Crable, Burgess, Mike Massey, Manningham, Boren, Koger, Turner). That's....mind-boggling.

    roflmao I don't understand why bucknutters keep saying this. dude, do you know your making yourself seem stupid. yes michigan is nothing without ohio. that's good to hear, now we will continue to go in your backyard and take your best players. your comment is making your team look bad, not michigan. you are basically saying that UM is smacking you for top recruits in your own state and I hope we continue to take ohio players and be good.

    well, a bird in the hand is worth more than two in the bush. we got ferns and you got nothing. no booker, no mcmillian. so why you talking smack about these lb's being better than ferns when ohio has neither. ohio fans are loco

    2 with a small possibility of 3... Ferns is quite versatile so they may go with 3 if the numbers allow it and the 3rd is a stud... Love the Ferns pickup... Kid seems smart and you need that playing the LB position... Great frame and athleticism is just as impressive.... This staff is something special... Cant wait to see them develop this talent.

    No we're basically saying the state of Michigan must really suck for high school football.

    yes it does. that's why we come to ohio and take your players like kalis, strobel, wormley, dymonte, gedeon and mccray. while ohio offers michigan players dawson, shallman, richardson and ross and gets none of them. michigan high school sucks, but the greatest football coach of all time urban frank meyer is still giving michigan kids offers. and I like how you never responded to my comment that was for you on your stupid booker/mcmillian post. you must feel really stupid right now.

    Exactly... Grab some players from Michigan and hope one turns out like Graham or Woodley or Harris or Braylon and then pick some top end talent from Ohio since their staff is too stupid to realize the great talent in their own state... Sounds like a recipe for success

  • Note to the Buckeyes acting like 12 year olds in this thread.

    Since it's highly, HIGHLY unlikely you're of any advanced age at all (your immaturity gives you away), I feel obligated to notify you that the only National Championship your team has won in your lifetimes was led by a quarterback........

    .......from the state of Michigan.

    Now either go get your shineboxes, or be quiet and limp back to Bucknuts.
