Unconfirmed Twitter Rumors: Franz Wagner will be committing to Michigan

Submitted by MichCali on July 5th, 2019 at 12:13 PM

From the twitter account "WolverineCorner":

So here’s an update on Franz Wagner: Based on everything I’ve heard and everyone I’ve talked to, Michigan is very confident Franz is coming to Ann Arbor. At this point it would be absolutely shocking if he’s not wearing a Michigan uniform next season.

Obviously nothing is official. And I’m definitely not an insider (and I don’t act like I am lol). But I still know people in the program and I can say with 100% certainty that the expectation right now in the program is to have Franz on the team next season.

Now....if this does happen (which it’s looking like it will), this will be an incredible get for Juwan Howard. To come in and snag a 5-star type talent in the 2019 class after Beilein left, that’d be really impressive.

So good news, although it might not be from someone much more credible than a friend hearing it on counterstrike.  Hopefully, Howard minke NCAA violatik wasn't true and Franz is coming.

I think the person was pretty transparent that it is based on hearsay from someone that has friends in the know and it is only an expectation on the Michigan side (not a done deal).

However, when there is this much smoke it usually works out for the good guys - with some notable Najee Harris sized exceptions (too soon?).

I posted a link to the twitter, and it literally says in the tweet "I’m definitely not an insider (and I don’t act like I am lol). But I still know people in the program."  I also say "it might not be from someone much more credible than a friend hearing it on counterstrike."

That basically says it all.  I thought this made it pretty clear that it was just rumors from someone who says he knows someone.  Not sure what else you wanted me to post or why you're complaining.  Research it yourself if you're really that concerned and get back to us with what you find.

Question, is that Sparty  in your avatar about to expel that dog's glands or something? Actually, based on the dog's pose, perhaps he already did? 

What's going on with that? Enquiring minds want to know.

It's a reference to the Sparty professor who got caught fucking dogs last year.  I think he was also fucking horses and other animals, too.

If you hadn't heard of it, I'm not surprised.  It's getting too hard to keep track of every scandal at MSU lately.

I could post that shit on twitter.  If I did, and you posted it here, that would be idiotic. 

Which is apparently what you did.  This is a dumb post, but it brought out some actual information Mr. Miggle below, so it now has value.  Good job.

You *could* post it on twitter, and I *could* post it here, but I wouldn't.  Your twitter most likely sucks and has 12 followers.  The account I posted is devoted to Michigan coverage and has ~15k followers.  I hope you can understand the difference?

I'm sorry you're so offended at this post, but I thought I made it VERY clear that it was just a rumor at this point and not to take it too seriously.

You having a bad day, my man?  Hope it gets better.

My twitter does suck, and I don't think it has as many as 12 followers. 

But you finally provided some useful information - 15k followers is probably legit, and it's devoted to Michigan coverage.  Nice job. 

I'm not offended at your post, but you can keep negging mine because you're not taking this personally at all.

Yes?  I dunno, dude.  It's not my twitter account.  I can't control what gets deleted.  I just saw a twitter with a large following post some good news and thought I'd share it with the board, while making VERY sure everyone knew it was just a rumor from a shaky source.  I apologize if I did not make this clear enough for you.

Maybe his mother monitors his account, and thought he overextended himself a bit this early in the summer break.

What you can control is yourself posting a link to garbage that is so bad the author feels a need to take it down. Garbage: This shit post referencing a nothing tweet that has since been deleted.

I think we should be a whole lot more concerned about the dog in OP's avatar.  I am offended by the pic and am working on creating an 'ism' to call it , and proclaim moral outrage about the new 'ism'. OP , can you help me create an ism that I can then accuse you of committing?  Kthx.

Wow, you’re that rare black man that actually has no right to object to any racism you get because you are of, by and for the same mindset, beliefs, attitudes, behavior, denial, and lack of key basic human qualities that the racists are.

This has always been evident to anyone paying attention to your truly insane political and religious views but never shown as plainly as in the last few days.

You're what’s a matter with Kansas, unc.
