Michigan State gets big news

  • OTPT said...

    Your program's rich history is really helping you on the field lately. 3-9, 5-7, 7-5...

    The last 3 years is all you got. You have 8 all-time big championships. We have 8 in the last 20 years. Learn your place.

    Not cranky, I just don't think a UM offer means much at this point. However, that may change a couple years down the road. Time will tell.

    Now I'm getting in this. A Michigan State offer means more at this point. Are you F****** kidding me. Michigan is ranked 15th in the world in academic institutions, not the U.S., the world. Michigan's football tradition and overall record is amazing, we have the best helmets in college football it was just voted on again this year, we have the biggest stadium in college football. Not to mention legendary players and the fact that we put tons of players in the NFL. Wow step back and think about what you are saying before you say it. gun

    Pss..you forgot about Brown and Strobel for UM.

    Anyways, OSU could conceivably lose out on every single top DE in Ohio.

    Still think Washington goes to OSU that's why it sucks we couldn't get Pittman.

    You haven't been looking then. Bill Greene, and TomVH have stated that Michigan slowed things down in regard to Pittman and Michigan. As I said above congrats to Sparty on the commit, SpartanRocky tried to take a veiled shot at many of the UM people, I took a not so veiled shot right back.

    Honestly I think Rocky was taking a shot at our own fans as much as anyone fwiw. We have our share of doomsayers.

    Calm down for a bit. I took is as the fact that UM is not the most selective in offering players. OSU offer and ND offer are more rare than a UM offer. He isn't saying a MSU offer means more than a UM offer.

    That is not my only argument here. If you have more than one insider including one that deals directly with OSU players telling you there was an academic concern with this guy for Michigan than there is something there. The way people are getting all defensive they make it sound like all these guys got together in a conspiracy to ruin this guys reputation. Are you kidding me, there is no way that happened. LMAO

    Either post sources or STFU. He had an offer on the table from UM, OSU, and several other very good schools. If UM didn't want him, then they would've pulled the offer. Simple as that. The rest is just word-of-mouth that you can't back up. Hoke is still cleaning Dantonio's clock in terms of star-ratings this year, but it boggles my mind that there is an excuse for even one battle lost.

  • Washington in my opinion winds up blue. He is a smart guy and I don't think he wants to be associated with what is going on down there right now. Just my twocents

    No one said they were going to have a terrible class. They said they were getting beat on the trail by UM. Landing Pittman after he tried to commit to UM 2 weeks ago still doesn't prove you aren't getting torched on the recruiting trail by UM.

    That said Pittman is a great player and it's a legit pickup. If he qualifies he, Gholston, and Thomas will be scary off the edge.

    Perhaps, but Rocky is perhaps the biggest douche on this board. He puts on this persona he isn't bias at all, and just has this general attitude that makes him look like an asshole. Newsflash Rocky you are a huge homer.

  • How about this pissing match head over to the Michigan/MSU thread. This thread should be about Pittman, not bickering between the fan bases.

    You have a half of a National championship since 1950. We have 6. Learn your place.

    So Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Notre Dame, Ohio State, and Tennesee wanted him.

    But Michigan didn't. Fuck. This sucks.

    There really is no reason to argue; he tried to commit to UM a couple of weeks and no longer had a spot. Solid pick-up, but dantonio has yet to beat Hoke out for a recruit. I know your post was sarcastic, but it is also the truth. Sorry.

    I'm talking about how well your coaching staff, as a whole, evaluates recruits. My opinion has nothing to do with the school itself. And no I didn't say I think an MSU offer means more; I did say that an OSU offer does.

    Was just about to say this.

    UM Fans: We hate it when MSU fans do this to our threads, lets not do the same to theirs.

    MSU Fans: Annoyed about UM fans doing this to your commit's thread? Imagine this every single commit we get.

    Take it to the UM/MSU thread.

    they're called links. They're used on the internet to send you from one website to another so you can share information with another person. Try it.

    I honestly don't give a fuck if Hoke wanted him or not. What has Hoke proved? Anything. Nope. Keep celebrating your recruiting victories as you weasles still have not realized Rich rod could recruit too. MSU fans will continue to celebrate hardware, maybe the Paul Bunyan trophy and Big Ten Championship trophy rings a bell?

    ... you're analyzing someone's personality over the internet? Man, you have some kind of gift.

    Also, you'll notice that Rocky's responses are pretty well thought out, concise, and relatively polite compared to your name-calling and short fuse. Value of a Michigan education, huh?

  • Good luck to all the individuals who continue to post on this thread. It is going no where and spiraling out of control. I don't normally like to argue but absolute blind statements about the situation are hard to ignore. Great pick up for MSU like I said at the start of this thread. I hope it works out.

    Hence the reason I said go read it yourself.

    I want the threads that say Se'Von Pittman has an academic issue. There's probably five thousand pages on info on him between those three sites. You seem to remember those specific pages related to academia quite well, so I asked you to post the links or at least send me in the right direction. If you have no idea where they are, then I'm sorry, but I don't believe anything you say.

    There, clear enough for you?
