Done forget de islands mon!
That is understandable, if the trip to Michigan is an "official", which I thought was true, seems questionable. But based upon what I saw, he had me fooled. So long as we don't have any hat tricks!
KK Robinson has cut his list to 2. Arkansas and Kansas. Announcement November 28th.
Didn’t follow the Burnett recruitment but it seemed Michigan was written in pen after Howard was hired.Surprising.
Michigan had been running in last place for a few months in the Burnett recruitment.
Thought was that it was going to be Alabama, then Tech hired Maligi and he got it done.

i liked KK Robinson’s highlight tape.
I'm a couple of hours north of Ann Arbor at the moment. We got 30" of snow earlier this week, and it has been in the twenties since. Deer season starts tomorrow, so a whole lot of people will be outside and happy.
We may not get Miller but this SG still has some eligibility!
He is for sure going to a kansas.....
And may transfer to Arkansas at some point.
I just hope that Steve Nash stays on the team longer than Jason Kidd.
If Underwood doesn't mention Durant in his Hawkins discussion, i'm going to be very, very disappointed...
Isn't Kidd announcing on the 21st?
As long as we win the rest of the non-conf sched, this year I am fine.

Apparently not...but is working on a later date.

Personally, I would rather he visit this weekend. If he announces for Illinois next week and follows it up with a visit shortly thereafter to Michigan, that commitment is basically worthless.
I understand his reluctance to sign anything as his scholarship and desired playing time is heavily dependent upon Ayo leaving. But going on a date with another school after you’ve just got engaged is very bad form. If he chooses to take another visit in the spring because it’s looking like Ayo may not leave, then that’s understandable in my eyes.
I'd prefer that he not announce anything until he's ready to sign. Announcing a commitment, with the intent to visit another school later, seems silly. That, of course, is unless he commits to Michigan and visits down the road.

I don't like it, but Miller has been upfront that his decision will be verbal only and that it is done that way to leave all options open. At least we know that going into it.

Why even verbal if it is meaningless? Coaches will keep recruiting him, which means we have to also.

I get the potential frustration, but I don't think a verbal is entirely meaningless. It could be the declaration of a strong front-runner. As long as recruits aren't just playing games, I think that still means something.
