Wow sounds like he is still struggling to make a choice.

Sam Webb is on the radio now. Says scuttlebutt is trending Ohio State but is still cautious about giving it too much weight. Also suggesting that if Weber sticks with Ohio State itll be in large part to Weber's close friend and fellow Ohio State commit Josh Alabi persuading him. Weber's decision, according to Sam, is likely not affected by Higdon's move.

Is there a place I can tune into Sam and listen online? Thank you.

down to this level? Here we are acknowledging how much it must suck to be besieged like he has been by the schools, but panting after every scrap. Guess it makes Brian .0000000657 cents per hit, but I must say, as the father of a daughter who is a gifted athlete (11 y.o.) who has high school coaches inquiring about where she's headed, wow--I have glimpsed why parents get riled and confused.

If Weber really wanted to flip to Michigan he's had ample opportunity to do so. It's not for lack of Harbaugh & staff trying; it's not a case of not "showing enough love." I'm not saying that Weber didn't want the competition with Higdon, but sometimes people having a hard time making a decision can use seemingly irrelevant things to justify a final choice. So be it. Karan sounds like a great kid.

Sam Webb suggesting Josh Alabi signing with Ohio State is a large factor in Weber's decision. We'll see.

this has got to be one of more ridiculous recruiting years in Michigan history.

If Harbaugh pulls off both Higdon and Weber it would be truly amaizing. I don't see it. I'm fine with Higdon.
February 4th, 2015 at 10:17 AM ^
and unicorn farts, but I still would rather have Weber than Higdon b/c of the whole clean up your own backyard aspect to recruting. If they're about equal, I'd rather have the in-state kid than the out of state one, and in this case, I think Weber's better, but not by that much.

Very unofficial here, but a buddy of mine who follows osu insiders said that he's already called Meyer and said he's going to the dark side. For what its worth...
Where this kid is going has been all about "depending on who you ask" so nothing surprises me at this point where he announces he's going.

Senator Palpatine embraced his association with the Dark Side, so I expect nothing less from urban meyer.

Getting to the point where a coin flip is needed. All seriousness, in all the pictures that he is in wearing OSU apparel, he looks depressed. I feel for the kid.

Higdon's commmitment shouldn't sway him, IMO. The competition at RB is going to be just as difficult at OSU as it is at Michigan.

I am very optimistic. I think Harbaugh and Drevno are going to do amazing things with M's running game. Not to mention, our stable of quality running backs isn't exactly empty. I'm excited to see the impact that Ty Isaac will have next year.
February 4th, 2015 at 10:13 AM ^
Wish him luck wherever he goes, but it feels like Higdon messed him up for some reason.
February 4th, 2015 at 12:24 PM ^
I would bet a Zima that Higdon had no effect on Weber...
Simply because OSU has a Heisman contender in jr RB - Elliot, highly touted soph Samuel, former high recruit Dunn, Ball, etc...plus the #1 RB recuitfor 2016 verballed.
I think its more to do with comfort level down there. He's had roughly two weeks of Harbaugh contact? Just not enough time...
February 4th, 2015 at 10:14 AM ^
Has Higdon sent in his NLOI?

The weather was bad, so it might be do to that.
They're going in alphabetical order, so it might be a little while.
February 4th, 2015 at 10:19 AM ^
If he comes here I will walk outside the office in my "where the wild things are" tshirt and scream "HOLY SHIT!"
I just can't imagine loving a school your entire life and choosing to go to a lesser academic school that you've hated your entire life.
During last season, I could totally understand.
But, if he's more worried about competing with Higden than the 5* back the bucks have coming in next year, he's not thinking clearly.
Regardless, as Don said, I'm find with Higden.

As long as he makes the best choice for him, then wherever he goes is fine. Can't go wrong with either choice, but I certainly wouldn't blame him for picking the reigning national champions.
I hope Harbaugh can get him back on board, but even if he can't, we're not exactly hurting for running back talent right now. Higdon is on board, Smith and Green have extensive playing time, and Isaac is the whole package.

players to Ohio. This whole Cass Tech to OSU crap needs to stop right now.

If Weber goes to OSU, I wish him all the luck in the world... off the football field.
