Lee going to ask out of his NLI from Michigan?

Their twitter literally posted Lee’s announcement tweet as this news came out. Beautiful timing.

Isn't he allowed out of his NLI if the coach leaves or is fired for nookie?  

I'm sure they'll let players out of NLI's if they want but they can also just enter the portal when it opens and be at their new school by the start of the semester anyways

I wonder if we let Max Wright loose thinking this would go public soon enough to scoop up Lee before signing day?
 

Also, are we satisfied with DB recruiting or do we circle back on Jamarion Vincent as well?

wish that I thought highly enough of our staff to believe they were playing 4-D chess with Michigan head-to-heads.

Did any of these guys really commit to UM because of Sherrone Moore? Their NIL is prob already locked in regardless.

It's not just NIL or Moore or the fancy helmets. That program could be an absolute shit show next season. You have no idea what kind of coaching staff will be there, what they will value in players, what they will emphasize, etc. There may have been informal commitments about playing time, development, and other opportunities. The AD is probably getting the axe too, which just amplifies the potential issues. 

Not saying you're necessarily wrong, but let's not discount the FUD that has to be setting in for Michigan's 2026 class. If there are any cracks, this is an opportunity to split them wide open.

Good point; however, when back to back coaches are embroiled in serious scandals, there’s probably some deeper rot going on there.

UMich's journalists are pretty much confirming this - long running issues and a culture of defensiveness and silence going back years.

Moore’s involvement was “big-time” in getting Lee to commit to Michigan as the family absolutely loved that he was the only head coach who trekked to Hawaii to recruit the four-star offensive tackle.

Assume news about Moore taking that chick to Hawaii will be breaking any minute now.

"The Moore news was shocking. A few days ago, Lee also had to swallow the news that offensive line analyst Juan Castillo was leaving the Wolverines for Syracuse. Lee and Castillo had developed a strong bond through the recruiting process.  As of now, nothing has changed in Lee’s recruitment but the family is going to have a sit-down and see how things play out.
A big blow was the day he signed, maybe a couple hours later, we found out Juan Castillo got the o-line job at Syracuse,” Keola Lee said. “That was a big one because Malakai jelled with him, too, and he’s a veteran guy."

I'm shocked that Michigan kept that under wraps.  Total oversight I'm sure.  Nothing underhanded at all.  🤦‍♂️

If Lee and family are doing their homework on the offensive line coaching pedigree of who they at least know will be on the coaching staff when he arrives to campus, where does that put us if he decides he wants out from Michigan? Firing Flood could possibly just lead him choose Alabama for the familiarity if nothing else.

Fuck. That's actually a good point. Catching a couple of high-end OL recruits from Michigan or elsewhere could give Sark just enough ammo to justify keeping Flood on the staff.

Losing two coaches is one thing but sticking with a program that blatantly hid this stuff until you signed is another. I'd tell them to kick rocks. Wonder how that works with NIL though

In order to know all of this would happen, he would have to have seen an oracle.

They didn't realize he was there to find an inverted pineapple.

Great news at a position of need. We should have some excess funds to throw at Lee after those 2 DL decommitted the week of signing day.

Michigan has another OL Bear McWhorter who is out as well.

I think we cracked the code on OL recruiting. Finish 2nd to a bunch of kids and then have the #1 team's coach leave or fuck his assistant.



If you think about it, pussy being undefeated and all, it's a sound strategy. 100% foolproof.
