I might be crazy. I looked back and don't see any actual record of it, so I could just be misremembering or maybe Michigan recruited but didn't snag the person I was thinking of. In any event, this whole deal still makes me uneasy. Maybe just the feel of it. Who knows, I am far from an authority on this.

You are not crazy. It was all over recruiting sites and was pretty big news at the time given Harbaugh's wild recruiting tactics (sleepovers at recruits' homes, etc). https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/early-lead/wp/2016/01/22/recruit-says-he-feels-used-after-jim-harbaugh-rescinds-scholarship-offer/

The kid ended up at OU btw.

A win win for both USF & Michigan!! If UF won't play at RJS against the Bulls, bring in Michigan while giving a big FU to UF.

Michigan is pulling top recruits.  Recruiting experts think the pros outway the cons here.  University of Florida should be concerned though.

Yes lol. The whole SEC is complaining about Michigan setting up camps in Florida. Hardbaugh said they are more than welcome to set up camp in Michigan lol.

I vaguely recall them snagging a recruit out from under us last year. Might have happened, anyway, but still. I guess we wouldn't do it if it didn't work, but this still makes me uneasy.

I remember Karan Higdon from Riverview decommiting from USF midway through the 2014-15 season then picking Michigan on Signing Day.  Marlon Mack and D'Ernest Johnson were having excellent freshman years, so I always thought it was a playing time thing.  I still would've liked to have him at USF; he'd be one of the better backs in our conference.

Yes! Thank you. I knew I wasn't crazy. I remember thinking at the time "well, all those people who said we aren't competing for recruits are wrong at least on this one..."

The whole thing feels... I don't know... desperate. Like getting friend zoned or something. I just don't love it.

If pretty sure he flipped to Iowa and then Michigan if my memory serves correct.
