Good tidings to all, the first crystal ball on 247 for Darion Green-Warren to pledge to us is in...

You should be banned.
December 11th, 2019 at 11:37 PM ^
Just like Harrell, it's a position of need with a path to immediate playing time
December 12th, 2019 at 8:43 AM ^
Yeah we really need this guy.
December 11th, 2019 at 11:38 PM ^
Flag on the play.
December 11th, 2019 at 11:55 PM ^
Congrats to DGW!
Wait...OP WTH?
December 12th, 2019 at 12:01 AM ^
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THIS MAN
December 12th, 2019 at 9:02 AM ^
As you wish...
December 12th, 2019 at 12:21 AM ^
In the sea of idiotic posts, this post stands alone in pure stupidity
December 12th, 2019 at 12:25 AM ^
Boo this man.
December 12th, 2019 at 12:31 AM ^
I lbarely care that the title is terrible. I choose to be glad about the (admittedly lower amplitude) good news.

fuck you OP
December 12th, 2019 at 3:39 AM ^
Heart jumped for joy when I saw the title. Then I opened the thread. Damn you OP and your ballz!!
December 12th, 2019 at 3:39 AM ^
Wiltfong also put in a CB for him to Michigan.
Is he signing early or going to Feb?
December 12th, 2019 at 9:33 AM ^
Probably going to February right now, he wants to commit at the All American game, but things are fluid. He could commit earlier on ESD, but I would say that Michigan pulled decisively ahead of Penn State.
December 12th, 2019 at 4:56 AM ^
Mods fix the title, please. Pretty inexcusable.
December 12th, 2019 at 6:01 AM ^
This has to be in the top tier of worst thread titles EVER.

I used to think that anybody who was literate would automatically be able to write simple, declarative sentences that communicated ideas or information in a clear, accurate, and unambiguous way. It's so damn easy to do so, so everybody can, right?
MGoBlog is a daily lesson that I was completely wrong.

I also used to think that anybody who was technically literate would automatically be able to write website code that enabled website users to easily edit what they write after posting. It's so damn easy to do so because so many websites actually enable users to do exactly that. So everybody can, right?
MGoBlog is a daily lesson that I was completely wrong.

You would think, right? I mean, a large part of the user base here claims to have been educated at the University of Michigan. So what we're left to understand is that English:Michigan :: Math:MSU.
December 12th, 2019 at 10:52 AM ^
But the problem was that the readers assumed the title was syntactically incorrect.
”Dorian Green-Warren cornerback to Michigan” is incorrect.
”Dorian Green-Warren crystal ball to Michigan” is correct.
I’ll admit I had to do a double-take, but all the posters who are complaining make it sound like he wrote “CB Dorian Green-Warren to Michigan.”
This is more of a failure to read correctly than a failure on the OP’s part to write. I don’t know why everyone is being a dick about it. It seems like criticizing subpar posts turns into a feeding frenzy at MGoBlog with everyone trying to one-up each other with the most scathing criticism of the OP. That type of transparent sensitivity is just begging for trolls to make a home here.
December 12th, 2019 at 11:51 AM ^
The OP titled this as "Dorian Green-Warren CB to Michigan".
DGW is a cornerback. The OP is getting rightly blasted for his poor choice of phrasing in the title, not for the information he provided. I think we can agree that its difficult to impart understanding when you do not clearly communicate your message.
"..subpar posts turns into a feeding frenzy at MGoBlog..."
Now this I agree with!
December 12th, 2019 at 2:54 PM ^
I understand the cornerback/crystal ball confusion, but what I was saying was that given the basic rules of English grammar, it was obvious he meant “crystal ball” and not “cornerback.”
In English, like most languages, word order matters and determines the function on a word. The meaning of the OP’s sentence is clear when one assumes the phrase is grammatically correct. Hence the fault lies in the readers for either not understanding English grammar or for assuming the phrase was grammatically incorrect.
December 12th, 2019 at 11:56 AM ^
No. It's the fucking OP who is too fucking lazy to write out Crystal Ball.
December 12th, 2019 at 7:29 AM ^
I am not a fan of all the criticism OP's get on this board but this one deserves a full serving of negs.
December 12th, 2019 at 8:04 AM ^
I guess I'm the only one who thought op meant crystal ball, but that's because I didn't know who the kid was.
December 12th, 2019 at 8:20 AM ^
Many operate under the premise that ignorance is bliss...I guess this time it was.
December 12th, 2019 at 9:47 AM ^
I immediately thought crystal ball as well. I assumed it was that because it wasnt a “Hello” post. ?♂️
December 12th, 2019 at 8:10 AM ^
It's worth noting that he is 40 years old
December 12th, 2019 at 8:34 AM ^
Just more experience!
December 12th, 2019 at 9:56 AM ^
C'mon man, Darion is only 27. Delano Hill was 40:
December 12th, 2019 at 8:39 AM ^
This would be a huge get. Pull a kid out of CA who was trending to USC.
I'd personally like to see a QB and DT in this class as well but I know numbers are tight now.
December 12th, 2019 at 10:20 AM ^
Thanks to USC for retaining Clay Helton.
December 12th, 2019 at 8:44 AM ^
Burn in Bolivia. Burn.
(The main issue is the DGW is a cornerback, or CB, so crystal ball was definitely not my first thought).
December 12th, 2019 at 9:07 AM ^
Also worth noting that 2 Rivals analysts put in their pick for us last night and he got a bump in the rankings today.
December 12th, 2019 at 9:31 AM ^
Your title sucks and I am to assume you tried to be cute. Fail.
December 12th, 2019 at 9:37 AM ^
Bolivia is wonderful this time of year. I suggest you get there post-haste
December 12th, 2019 at 9:42 AM ^
Honestly, where the F are the moms?
December 12th, 2019 at 10:07 AM ^
LOL I read it correctly as crystal ball
December 12th, 2019 at 10:15 AM ^
I was one of the many who took "CB" as cornerback, not "crystal ball." Terrible title. Still pretty good news.
There are two things I wonder about with this post.
- Why can't the web designers modify mgoblog so that you can edit and modify original posts?
- Was the OP clueless in this blunder, or was it a high level click bait troll action?
December 12th, 2019 at 10:39 AM ^

This is why.

"wHy Do YoU pEoPlE cArE sO mUcH aBoUt TiTlEs?"
You're asking a blog audience primarily comprised of males under the age of 40 why they care so much about titties.
December 12th, 2019 at 2:19 PM ^
With the absurd camel casing above, it looks like you're asking why do we care so much about titties!
December 12th, 2019 at 2:31 PM ^
"camel casing"
I'd never come across this term before, but I instantly knew what it referred to.
I can always learn something new on MGoBlog.
December 12th, 2019 at 12:32 PM ^
And the Darwin Award for worst title of the year goes to this guy.
December 12th, 2019 at 12:46 PM ^
well, I thought he committed, had no idea what position until I saw CB.... cornerback. Dammit man.
December 12th, 2019 at 2:19 PM ^
Well played OP, nice troll job. Now go fuck yourself. We really need this commitment.
December 12th, 2019 at 2:45 PM ^
Why is a crystal ball in our favor post worthy?
Or are these the same people that make posts about our rivals being down in the early part of a game, and then bragging about it here like it matters - only for that hated team to come back in their own game. It is embarrassing.
According to your link, he has more towards USC than UM.
- Wouldn't it make more sense to not post anything until he commits to one school or another?
