Derrick Green [Open] Thread

Submitted by eth2 on

Today is the day. In about 4 hours from now at 4PM EST, Hermitage RB Derrick Green will announce his decision. Finalists include Michigan, Tennessee, and Auburn.

Story from newspaper that will cover the announcement live: http://bit.ly/VoJlH6

Mod edit: Changed the name of the thread to discourage the otherwise inevitable onslaught of board posts. Unless Green or someone close to the situation confirms his choice before the announcement, there doesn't need to be another thread posted. If someone wants to start an announcement open thread sometime close to 4:00, go for it. JGB.

I don't understand why there is this intense aversion to starting new threads on an internet message board - a place designed for discussion.  If someone starts a thread and no one responds, it'll drop off the first page pretty quickly.  If it does garner responses, then obviously it was worth posting in the first place.  So what's the problem?

I was very suspicious yesterday when Ira said that Sam was on special assignment. Didn't want to get my hopes up. Looks like he has confirmed this on Twitter. Fingers crossed.

I don't want to sound overly pessimistic, but I just want people to be aware that whenever a recruit is involved with Auburn, there tend to be, in certain high profile cases, some shady dealings involved. I'm not saying that Green wont pick Michigan, but I'm saying I wouldn't be surprised if he were to pick Auburn. Tennessee is a long shot, though.

If you're gonna sit around and wait for Green all day, you should buy a "Forever Comfy". Your back will feel almost as good as your bottom...

I will have you know that I own a forever lazy, and it is a testament to American enginuity.

  • Its comfortable
  • You can use the restroom in it, no matter what number you need to go
  • Its warm
  • Its one piece of clothing, no need to throw on pants THEN a shirt
  • Its perfect for ALL occasions
  • It is the pinnacle of both trendiness and comfort

It makes me proud to be an American.

We work twice as hard as anyone in Europe. So what we have a bunch of shit we don't need. I understand their jealously, but they sure don't deny our help when some 3rd world country threatens a nuke or kills some children.
