I don't know what his dad said, but after his ND visit it was said that it wasn't a fit. The two sides didn't seem to click. I would agree, even if it's not Stanford, it'll be somebody else.

Michigan isn't recruiting him any more, so it won't be them.

Not a fit with scUM either?

I smell something fishy, like dad having some preconceived ideas he can make some demands. Nothing to base it upon, just a funny smell.

I have no idea as I haven't seen anyone willing to go into details but this is what I thought as well. Too bad because I think Aeneas would be a great fit at Drop with Elston coaching him.

Do you know they stopped ?

getting low on spots and have moved on.

They have great shots at 5* DE Zach Harrison and 5* LB/ATH Quavaris Crouch. If they get over the MSU hump- which is a big if- they will stroll into Columbus 10-1 and probably be the odds on favorite for both of those recruits. Those guys love Michigan- but they both want to see if Michigan is for real. Crouch basically came out and said he'd already be committed to Michigan if they were real championship contenders and that he wanted to see how they played. Feather in Michigan's cap is he doesn't want to play RB anymore. He wants to play LB in college with a few snaps here on there on offense. He basically said he wants to be like Peppers and the coaches are selling that with him and he's buying it.

And depsite Karlafatis being committed to Purdue, he's still talking to Michigan and is likely to take a visit before NSD. Purdue still has to play Iowa, MSU, Wisconsin, Ohio State, and Indiana. If Purdue craters- there's a good bet he opens it up.

Penn State will have a word.

it's a night game in Ann Arbor. Penn State is just not that good. Penn State is in the same boat as Wisconsin imo. Highly overrated to start the season based on last year. They will destroy Penn State IF. If they beat Michigan State. Big if because: Harbaugh truly sucks on the road and also: Dantonio circles this game every season to play his very best. This game is Sparty's Super Bowl every year under Dantonio.

Lose to Michigan State and I could see them folding and Penn State stealing the game.

They get past MSU though, and Penn State will get run through at night in Ann Arbor.

Good ol' Tommy. Not a whisper out of him for a month and a half and all of a sudden he's back. Did you think we'd forget about September 1 if you stayed away for a while?

Couldn't aeneas just lose some weight and play LB for ND. They could get foskey and him?

Has something happened between DiCosmo and Stanford to drive these posts?

Just that he hasn't committed yet. So, naturally ND getting back involved comes up, even though there has been no public recruitment of him for a few months now. Lol.

And FWIW, there are names that the staff is evaluating at DE/Drop and none of them are Aeneas.

Should have come out and said, "Sorry this took so long, I got hung up in admissions. Almost had to study kinesiology in Ann Arbor but I'll be a Tech 4 Jocks major in Palo Alto. Looking forward to an above average, supplement induced, 5th year in 2023."

Now what would have been funny is if Stanford couldn't get him through admissions and Harbaugh gave him the, Michigan's for Michigan Men speech, and he ended up at Rutgers.

And just you remember this Kramer DiCosmo... I know Howard Cross and ur no Howard Cross.

ISD said post his summer visit that things weren't going to work out here because the two sides didn't mesh well. Turns out it might be that the DiCosmo family ego was an issue.

I just can't believe the time and effort put into this video that was incredibly anticlimactic no matter who he picked.

And his as well after watching that video.

No mention of him on any charts I read. Typical tree redshirt.
