Ty Isaac Discussion

  • Dizzo said...

    Conley had committed on Wednesday before ever taking a visit. Hardly the same situation. LTT had been to Michigan 7 times, continually said we were his leader, and had multipe Twitter pictures of himself with Jake Long and with tons of Michigan gear. He knew he wanted Michigan and knew spots were running low, so he locked up his spot.

    Those are hardly the same situation. Isaac wants to visit USC and has a trip planned out there on his own dime already. Michigan is in a great position, and recruiting Is always changing, but I just don't see him giving off the vibes that he is ready to end his recruitment.

    In public, I agree. But the $ sites are saying it is possible and hinting that Isaac might be saying different things in private.

    Actually he delayed his decision after USC offered this morning.

    Wow, I accidentally put AU Bowl. I guess Chris got USC to bite, strategic move by him.

    David Dawson, Patrick Kugler, Terry Richardson, and Taco Charlton are just a few.

    Dawson always wanted to go to Michigan and was just waiting for the offer to commit. Committing immediately after getting an offer is not the same as Isaac.
    Kugler lived in Michigan and grew up liking Michigan, as did his dad. He knew we had limited spots and committed to secure his.
    Richardson was always going to end up at Michigan and his two closest friends were committed and in his ear. He also seemed to regret it a few times and talked about taking visits.
    Taco had talked about an early decision and wasn't shy saying he was feeling Michigan.

    How are these the same as the #1 RB in the country (According to Scout) who has said he likes Michigan, USC, And Notre Dame right now, wants to take more visits especially to USC, and isn't worried about losing a spot anywhere if he doesn't commit early?

    And yet despite all that, your entire argument is rendered moot by multiple sites saying Isaac actually wants to decide early and get the process over with.

    I'm not expecting him to commit this weekend either, but you're swinging to the other end of the pendulum way too hard.

    And Kugler grew up liking Michigan STATE. Don't get it twisted, Michigan worked some magic to win him over. He was a Spartan growing up.

  • Just for the record, Isaac could commit this weekend, who knows. These coaches have done incredible things so far and do have 2 RBs slated to visit next week.

    Just seems like the sentiment from posters is changing from "possible" to "probable" so I am trying to be the voice of reason so people don't get down if he doesn't commit this weekend.

    They all said they wanted to take other visits before committing. Especially Kugler who was set to visit MSU and commit there. He grew up a MSU fan and you can tell that by his quotes before he committed. Richardson was adamant about committing at a AA game and visit Bama, Oregon, and some other southern schools.

    Isaac should be worried about losing his spot especially with DeVeon Smith and Derrick Green visiting next weekend. I'm sure the coaches have let him know the situation and this weekend is his best opportunity to save his spot or else he risks losing it.

  • A commitment from Ty would be almost as shocking as when Bosch dropped... I was not expecting him to commit that early and if he did, to ND... Issac would be one step closer to the ultimate win in Illinois... That final piece would be Treadwell.... Landing those 4 from IL would be insane

    Bingo. The coaches scheduled Smith and Green for next weekend for a reason. We'll see what happens, but I will not at all be surprised if he drops tomorrow.

    lol I have never used a downvote on this site. Way to call somebody out for being immature when they didn't actually downvote you.

    You've never used a downvote? I seriously doubt that. Why would someone downvote me if my comment was directed at you proving your comment wrong?

    You mean you like the chances he goes and does exactly what he has repeatedly said he won't do?

    I'm with m&b21. I want an Isaac commitment. It will help soften the blow from that crappy basketball game.

    Hockey tonight beating ND and ending their season would solve that pain for me.

    Very random post for the Ty Isaac Discussion thread. It also has nothing to do with Michigan...

    +1 to that.. That was the most painful game I had watched in awhile. It was basically as bad a beating as the 2008 football Game.

    Might be because he got a USC offer yeserday.

    It was mind numbing. Some games are best simply forgotten.

    I think his bro is at PSU, his dad played at Notre Dame, and his grandfather at Michigan State.

    So my guess is his brother goes to Ohio State.

    Very true I'd add McGovern in there as well. UM will have locked up Illinois, quite impressive.panic
