It seems like an easier solution would be to just not open them if you're not interested in them.

Pryor Removes Michigan from Short List. Down to PSU and OSU.

Since 2005, Michigan has recruited 3 QB...Ryan Mallet, David Cone, and Jason Forcier. That can't be good. And what's worse it seems like they put all of their eggs in their basket for Terrelle Pryor, who may not even got to Michigan. There is not a distinguishable QB on Michigan's roster (unless someone familiar with Michigan football can fillme in), so they better hope they land Pryor, or they are looking at a LONG...Notre Dame type season. BTB, even if they land Pryor, I believe Pryor will end at either DE or TE/WR before he leaves college. He just doens't look naturally as a QB. My guess.....David Cone???? it's not that pryor may not go to michigan - it's very likely that he's not going. it's been reported by multiple sources that pryor was going to commit to ohio state on LOI day, but his dad talked to him the night before that and asked him to take an official visit to penn state. so he's going to take officials to psu and oregon now. but ohio state is still the favorite. apparently his dad had some sort of work-related injury and is in a wheelchair or something... i heard this discussed on the radio. it'd be hard for his dad to travel to columbus to see him play, so that's why his dad wants him to come to psu. but apparently the son likes the columbus area better than happy valley and also was spending a lot of his time at the all-american game with ohio state commits. plus they pay better. so that's still the odds on favorite. but the way i hear it now is that michigan (and i suppose oregon as well) are big long-shots. apparently they have a kid who transferred from georgia tech, and he was somewhat highly-regarded coming out of high school, but even if he turns out to be a player, he's going to struggle a lot at first. and, michigan does not have anybody who can run the spread option. the ga tech transfer and david cone are both pocket passers. the only real running quarterback is a guy they just signed from florida, and he wasn't that highly-regarded as a qb prospect. for him to come in and start immediately would be a huge stretch. Steven Threet is the QB that transfered from Georgia Tech. He was pretty highly regarded coming out of high school, and was doing very well in practice ball according to the rivals and scout forums. He'll probably be the first option for next year. Michigan also recruited a guy out of Florida named Justin Feagin who's the dual-threat type QB who might also get a look. We'll probably be seeing some sort of dual QB system next season with what we have at QB. I'm not expecting much from Michigan this coming year. It's going to be a tough year with the transition. They'll probably lose 3-4 games next season.

Sam McGuffie was waivering today about signing with Michigan, but he faxed in his letter of intent tonight. All in all, a pretty good recruiting class for Michigan. Quite impressive that Rich Rod was able to keep most of the recruits from Carr and add some of his own. I wasn't expecting such a good class with the coaching change taking place this offseason.

It's good to see you're already hating after we stole one of your recruits today. :lol:

I feel like I've aged 5 years during the span of this thread. I can't believe the Bedard deal isn't even complete yet.

You don't have to apologize about anything. People are always going to take things for granted. Keep up the good work. Without you, we'd be forced to go back to forums like cubs.com, espn, and prosportsdaily. :cry:

I've tried to stay away from this thread for the past couple of days. It's good to see that nothing has changed and we're still sitting here with our thumbs up our butts.

Everyone's an insider in the internet age. I've completely given up on believing anything until the deal is actually completed. I just don't understand why we would trade for Bedard.

Orioles' fans are having a fit right now, and rightfully so. That team will never be anything as long as Angelos owns them. I'm guessing he'll nix a Roberts' trade as well. I would like to know one way or the other though. Enough of this back and forth crap. Either tell us the deal is off for good, or complete the trade.

I would kill myself if I were an Orioles fan. Angelos is a joke. The guy has to have his nose in everything. The Orioles aren't going to have a fan base left if he keeps up these antics.

Man, I got excited because there were 5 more pages since I last looked at this thread. I thought something new might have surfaced, but it turns out you guys are fighting about Theriot again. Bastards.

This trade has been very, very close since the beginning of December.

I just want something to happen. I'm tired of all the speculation. This has been going for what seems like forever.

Geez. About time he made one.

3rd time the charm? :lol:

Nice pass Favre.

Dan Marino better be watching his back after this game.

Haha. The Giants are terrible.

You know you've played badly when you let Eli play well.

I'm surprised that Burress incomplete pass wasn't reviewed by the booth.

How do you keep letting him open on the same pass pattern? Terrible defense by the Packers.

Burress is just abusing the Packers so far in this game. He's catching everything in sight.

Haha. Nice defense Giants. Might want to cover people next time. :lol:

I got the email. I'm definitely going to buy some tickets in 20 minutes when the thing opens up.
