Buckle Up Prediction Thread
By now, we all know about TomVH's "Buckle Up" tweet. For fun, what are everyone's predictions of what that will mean over the next 2-3 days?
To kick it off, my prediction:
1. Kalis commits today.
2. Dunn decommits OSU today and is Blue by Sunday.
3. Wilson today or tomorrow.
4. The next Hello: _____ post garners over 200 responses.
That's my prediction. Anyone else? And, of course, joke predictions, pictures of cats and the like are both welcome and expected . . .
BOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
I think its Dunn commiting so people stay of his azz for the next year?
example........Hart
I like how we now have an overflow thread about a two word tweet.
Wormley's visiting today and Wilson could be announcing. My guess is it's related to one or both of them.
And there ain't nothing wrong about that.
Well, that's alot better than desperately hoping to flip some academic non-qualifier on signing day.
Still too soon man, it still stings.
The only way to ease the tension:
we need a thread of relaxing muzak. Gimmie Chuck Mangione and a paper bag to breathe into and I can weather this commit storm.
A fan of King of the Hill?
There has to be at least one out there.
I fucking love king of the hill.
Tom is going to a doctor's appointment as we speak.
Predictions for what it's for?
I'm thinking something to do with recruiting.
It is literally 2 posts below this
So, which is it: [Literally] or [Litterally]?
He litterally tossed his trash on the ground
Wormley and Kalis commit while toasting Brian at his wedding...
Shhh...that sounds like impermissible benefits. Especially if Brian's wedding is open bar....
"Take it easy Rodney."
"Open bar Chief."
Kalis just decomitted from OSU, I think he's going to want some time to review everything before jumping ship, especially since he was all "I love OSU, I'm going to recruit hard for them, etc." To switch to archrival Michigan practically overnight would be, well, overwhelming. I don't expect this, but it would be very welcome.
As for everything else, well, we shall see.
He decommitted from OSU awhile back and was talked into recommitting. This isn't as sudden as you make it sound.
Maybe it was a public service announcement and he was reminding everyone to buckle up when driving?
At this point this joke should be neg on sight with how overused it was in the other topic.
But - go with me here - what if Tom was actually talking about driving, and not recruiting?
That would constitute a gross abuse of his power. Legally speaking he knows or should know that something like this would happen, and the rash of high blood pressure related ailments and strokes would constitute grounds for legitimate tort claims against him.
i wonder if tomvh is aware of the reaction a potentially harmless tweet could warrant. if he really meant nothing recruiting related by his tweet, he must be laughing at the thought that 2 posts with over a combined 300 threads have been made within the 3-4 hours about nothing. if he ever needed an ego boost...
did we really need another thread?
Tom knows something about Wilson committing... you know, buckle up for "safety"?
This is actually a really good guess. I'll vote for this one.
But I'll guess that the tweet wasn't a word game. This same comment also exists at least 4 other times in the other thread on this topic.
Wormley will be in town today and with the number crunch on the defensive line I believe that he will be the next commit followed shortly by Wilson. Kalis will commit on Sunday.
TomVH along side Steven Elmer's father accurately solve the Rapture equation that Rev. Harold Camping messed up. The new date is actually today at 7p.m. Things are going to get rough.
So...I guess I don't need to bother returning that video to Red Box?
I work there :)
Kenny G plays a set naked on national TV while Ron Artest (Mr. Peace) shaves him.
That dude was awesome in Pirates. Davy Jones always spooks me.
My prediction is that that tweet causes a 160 post thread to start.
And later, a couple really good high school football players will say they want to play for Michigan, and more posts will be made.
I predict General Zod and the other criminal Kryptonians imrpisoned in the Phantom Zone break free and pledge their services to OSU, initiating a superhuman recruit race which will culminate with Denard beating the Flash in a QB competition. Buckle up indeed.
The Flash is a running back. Denard is a QB.
Also, General Zod took improper benefits, so while he could probably suit up at OSU, I hear that they will soon be short on scholarships.
As we all know, the recruiting services projected Flash as an athlete and said he would best fit at tailback or slot, he wanted to compete for QB. Had to give him his shot or risk losing him to Nebraska. He already wears red, after all...
Tate Forcier transfers to Northern
My prediction is that Wilson is commiting somewhere else and he is saying buckle up because the wrath that will ensue because of us splitting ways with Wayne Morgan.
Ahh...bummer prediction, man. That's like, um, your opinion, man.
its preventing myself from having a let down. And going against the grain a little bit. lol
Awww, buckle this: LUDICROUS SPEED, GOOOO!!!

Well, it's 2:45. Wilson is meeting with his coaches right now, and Thurston is announcing at 3:00. I'm optimistic about one of those..
