I think so, but I don't think Treadwell ever verbally committed to Michigan. He's one of 2-3 guys that Hoke was hoping to get to round out the '13 class.

By the way, having Diggs on this team for the ND game probably would have made the difference.

I thought Diggs was a bad apple, who even Urban stopped recruiting.I'll let you ban hate speech when you let me define hate speech.

I don't rememberr Stefon Diggs even being realistically in the picture. Didn't we just not recruit him, period, because of character issues?

But later it became clearer that he was a character issue. Saying, "I'm not sure" wouldn't deter Hoke if he wanted Diggs. He was never a verbal.I'll let you ban hate speech when you let me define hate speech.

He was a recruit. Recruits say a lot of stuff. At that point Diggs was one of those kids adopting the favorite-of-the-week sort of strategy, and the talk of him to Michigan was maybe about a month long or so? Treadwell on the other hand has been considered a guy likely to go to Michigan for a long time, but with some Oklahoma ties he wants to look into as well. Texas is the news here, and, well, that's obviously not as good news as hearing he's not adding another team to his mix. But clearly this situation is reminiscent of the Diggs one in no meaningful ways.Comment

You couldn't take anything Diggs said seriously. IIRC, he totally blew off M when they came to visit him. And Hoke was rightfully pissed and quit recruiting him. In tha scenario, not sure who quite recruiting who, but I feel fairly comfortable in saying Diggs was no lock to anyone.

If he blew off Hoke then no wonder they quit recruiting him.Originally posted by iam416 View Post

Treadwell has stated all along he wants to take these officials and he will. It's also worth noting he's wanting (and wanted) to take quite a few unofficials to M. I'd be surprised if he went anywhere else but anytime a kid goes to another campus, hearts can change.Comment

Here's hoping you are right WM, but this recruitment is reminding me more and more of Jordan Diamond every day...
With that said, if somehow M ended up with Green and Treadwell in addition to Morris, is that an unprecedented haul at skill positions for M? The #2 prostyle qb, the #1 RB, and the #1 WR?To be a professional means that you don't die. - Takeru "the Tsunami" KobayashiComment

1998 was the all time high. We got four skill players that year who would probably get 5* ratings today (Fargas, Henson, Terrell, Walker).Comment
