how people assume because one kid does not commit it means that another (Wheatley) is committing... If there's one thing you learn quickly when following recruiting - never count your chickens before they hatch.

I don't see him as a talent that hurts that much to lose but picking Syracuse seems like a weird choice. Maybe he knows more about our class than we do. I wouldn't leave Wisconsin for Cuse. Very weird. Wish him the best and hope he does well.

Left Wisconsin - thought he was going to Michigan - better prospects maybe lining up to commit and rather than wait to see if they will or won't taking one in the hand.   Probably can't recommitt to Wisconsin if he has taken the visit somewhere else.  

If I were him honestly I would feel somewhat upset by this because there is no way in your right mind you decommit from Wisconsin to go to Syracuse.   Right?

I actually think we are getting Wheatley and Webber.   This would be my educated guess but time will tell.

The best feeling is knowing that no matter who he gets Jim Harbaugh will demand and will get a 110% from these kids and they will produce.   It makes me care less about who ends up here and more about the common threads around who he offers.

how many negs I get for this...I do not want a player who would pick Syracuse over a Michigan team coached by Jim Harbaugh.  If on the other hand the coaches told him there might not be a spot, then obviously that's intriguing.
