'20 MI DE Braiden McGregor (Michigan Verbal)

[jspags10pg]

We'll one thing was always true. Elston won the recruiting battle and WILL coach Braiden next year.

As Michigan's head coach.

Heard it here first

Best of luck to him.

* If he's been committed since his last trip to Ann Arbor, I wish him 5 years of nagging injuries, an 8th round draft selection to the XFL and a kinesiology degree

I hope not. I love Elston and want him to get everything he wants in life but I also want him coaching at ND for as long as possible. Michigan doesn't deserve a guy like him twice.

 

[NDShark]

Oh, that’s going to go over well. He played a video of him committing to UM on his visit and strung along Elston, Mills, and Company this whole time.

A video of him calling the Michigan coaches to let them know? And on the ND visit? How do we know that?

No. Not on the ND visit, that would be worthy of a beat down and I don't think he's that level of a douche.

The video of him committing was apparently before his last ND visit and he strung the Elston and the other coaches along as though he was still in play. If that's true, it's a dick move.

And apparently was talking with Mills about being roommates all the while knowing he had already committed to Michigan.

That’s a low rent move even for an 17-18 year old.

Go Irish!

Kid lacks integrity. I'm guessing his dad's a clown too. Only one place you learn that.

 

[irishandy]

I am over this kid!

He wanted to be at his dream school and he is.

He played ND like a game of baseball, he hit and ran.

Elston recruited his ass off to try and land him.

We ended up with the better recruit in Tyree.

Godspeed Mr. McGregor!

 

[irishnd31]

We ended up with the better recruit in Jordan.

More accurate.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

Damn this one really stings. I really liked kid as a football player. Notre Dame football will be fine without him. But damn, he is going to be one hell of a good football player for Michigan down the road.

After this I have moved on to 2021. Crus help me out but 2021 DLine looks promising. I'm going with Landyn watson, Gabriel Rubio, Bryce Carter, and George Rooks. Rocco Spindler can join but he's from Mochigan so . . .Time for 2022. . . .

Would love to have Garrett Dellinger and Spindler out of MI on the lines but like you said...both are from the same HS in Michigan and appear to be Michigan leans. We'll see how that plays out after this year tho.

I think Michigan may have some trouble recruiting if they lose to ND and OSU again when they have a "new offense" (like we heard last year) and OSU has no Urban and both OSU and ND come to their place. This year sets up for Michigan to have zero excuses if they can't win those games. I mean, they will inevitably have excuses but you know what I mean.

Is ND recruiting Rocco as 3 Tech DT or as a OG?

I was under the impression that ifbhe wants to be a DT then they will recruit him as a DT but that they initially as a OL as they and many others see him as being very similiar to Zack Martin.

I've listened to a couple podcasts and every one of them said McGregor was a well-spoken and likable kid so I want to pull back on my sour grapes post.

Maybe he wasn't stringing Elston along, maybe he really was still considering ND and maybe he just belongs at Michigian. If all of those things are the case, then I wish him personal success (and I wish massive failure to UM).

Michigan was his dream school, I am glad that he picked his dream school rather than picking ND and backing out of his commitment.

I don’t know the source of this twitter handle or where he got his info from. I don’t know how to link these tweets to this site so if someone can give me their twitter handle I’ll tag them in it and you can post it on here.

Basically Harbaugh asked McGregor to lie to ND staff and commits and tell them he was coming to ND just to lie and make a big fuck you to ND. He also said do it the day after Tyree so it’s a big fuck you to ND fans and it would stop our recruiting momentum.

IF this is true fuck Jim Harbaugh and the direction he steered McGregor to make him look like the biggest piece of shit ever. Rylie Mills might lay him out at the Army Game or make Blake Fisher can just lock his ass up again. Either way this is just so fucking wrong if it’s true.

I hope BK runs it up in Ann Arbor this year because this might be a little extra motivation

And since he entertained this BM is equally a POS

Man I want that to be true just so BK has the team boatrace Michigan. That extra motivation might be needed

 

[GBdomer]

I don’t like calling 17 year olds pieces of shit because man I did some things at the age that only a mother would forgive but I understand what you are saying.

LoL I hope Kelly scores 60 on them, they won't be able to stop our WR's or Book for that matter. Their D-Line isn't anywhere close to what it was last year and our OL is better. Can't wait.

 

[Veritate Duce Progredi]

Feel bad for McGregor because at that age, you are looking for guidance/father figures and he chose Jim.

I also hope our offense is firing on all cylinders that day. Please let us pound those pieces of shit into the dirt.

 

[IrishLion]

BK already hates scUM more than most opposing teams. You can tell that he openly does not like them, and that's not usually the case for him. You can bet he hates Stanford and David Shaw, but he treats that week and talks about them like they're any other opponent. I've heard in a few places that BK has a personal beef with scUM because they hired Rich Rod over him back in the day.

If this is true, and our staff thinks it's beyond "recruiting is crazy," I hope BK runs up the score this year, instead of going into a shell like last year.

Because we ARE going to control that game. I hope BK lets Ian do his thing and keeps the foot on the gas.

 

[Luckylucci]

Hey, Braiden just takes the position of Chase Winovich 2.0 very seriously. This is what was necessary if he was going to be in the running for CEO of Douche Inc. after Shea Patterson leaves.

 

[brewdog_14527]

I am surprised he did this to his friends. I would be curious to hear what Rylie Mills would say about this, although I doubt we will hear. I wouldn't call BM names, but I would say that if all this is true, there will be no going back to him later in the cycle. The ship will definitely have sailed.

indeed, the kid was placed in a horrible situation. Reminds of that kid from few cycles back who was committed to UF but was advised by FSU coaches to flip on signing day as a troll job

He has a father and a mother, all under the same roof. Things that make you go hmmmm…….

 

[NDdomer2]

Oh Jim. Instead of trying to stop our momentum he should be trying to build his own.

Can't ever build your own house when ur too worried about knocking the neighbors down.
