Re: Conley is reported to have commited to OSU!!!!!!
Welcome to Buckeye Nation. Not a recruit I'm going to get excited about but for scUM fans to dismiss him when their coaching staff obviously wanted him is hilarious. Urban simply beat out Hoke, OSU simply beat out scUM regardless.

I wasn't suggesting they were melting down over the Conley commit (though I am not ruling that out. I think they saw that coming. I was suggesting they would disown Denali for wishing him well. It was a civil gesture, which is woefully uncommon there...

Huge difference between the two examples, but I welcome your civility in wishing Gareon well. Don't let the guys on Stadium & Main know. They'll disown you. Eh . . . no meltdown there. They think they've got a better corner on the way. Have no idea whether it's wishful thinking or fact-based expectation.  Some are wishing him well, some aren't, but no one is disowning those who are.

Remember that his cousin, Devin Smith, goes to OSU as well. Good for OSU, good for Conley. Happy to have him on board.

DB or WR? He's listed as a CB but a lot of people are calling him for WR and Meyer told him to be prepared for both. So what's the guess?

Cam may grow out of the CB role into Safety, especially if Vonn Bell doesn't come. but as cam grows so will Gareon, and he could be an Ideal NFL size when he's a senior.

Outstanding. Welcome to the Buckeye family Mr. Conley! I wanted another CB in this class and we just landed a good one.

RE: Conley is reported to have commited to OSU!!!!!!
Conley in an interview said Devin talked to him, but didn't recruit him, in the end he wanted to be with family, and Devin said he would take care of him, so no matter if he did commit to Michigan in the beginning, family won out at the end,

Good luck at OSU Gareon! I'm not defending how some people here treated an 18 year old kid who is making one of the biggest decisions of life but Kalis did bail on the program when things got rocky and didn't even wait for things to shake out. That is what angered so many people. Had he just switched like Conley did, the reaction would not have been as severe. If Kalis had "switched" the way Conley did I think he probably would have gotten worse. Kalis jumped ship in a timely manner while Conley tried to do things behind the coaches back and held the scholarship hostage for weeks. Kalis was a shock to many while Conley leaving has been expected for awhile now.

I think plenty of Michigan's current recruits go down the same way.

Then nice ole Mattison struts up to Conley's house to try and get him back for a visit, and Conley probably feels sorry for the guy so he grudgingly accepts. Then when Conley visits the school he really knows he wants to go to he commits. Dawson went behind the coaches back. Conley didn't.

Hoke just doesn't allow players to take visits after they commit which will back fire him many times in the up and coming years ......
