ROJO Out? In? MADNESS!
Published by The Shredder on Wednesday, January 31, 2007 at 3:12 PMWell the shit got knocked off the table so to speak with Rojo rumors running ramped. When I say ramped... I mean ramped! I have heard crazy stuff, from his mom getting a job with the Gators to Tressell pushing the Johnson's away from Michigan. I just did some ROJO Lotto yesterday and maybe I was dead wrong? Maybe this is all complete BS. Here is the popular Rumor
Back in 2005 when Ronald Johnson blew out his ACl all the big time programs stopped sending mail and didn't offer...Except Michigan Michigan (carr) invited Ronald to a game in 2005 when no on else would talk to him. Ronald gave us a verbal that day....but soon after returning home is mother made him take it back. During the next few months Ronald told Mallett and Terrance Taylor he was going to Michigan. (that exlains why Mallett came out on rivlas.cmand spilled the beans...So he wasn't lying its just that Ronald didn't want everyone to know yet) Ronalds Mom wanted him to keep everything hush hush. During RoJos recruitment his High school coaches were whispered to be keeping mail and phone calls not Michigan related from RoJo....His family heard these rumors and the relationship was damaged severely between RoJo and his high school coaching staff. During his official visit on December RoJo gave a second verbal to English in the UM weight room in front of many defensive players... but told everyone to keep it from public knowledge. Terrance Taylor made sure to tell RoJo on his official visit to take all of his visits. Ronald had no interest in taking more visits because he was set on his school he would go to. What seems to have pushed it over the edge was the Florida visit.Ronald was...and I quote "Blown away" from the visit... Yesterday at Muskegon high school rojo was visibly upset...and told his muskegon coaches that he had to talk to them...(FYI if you havent picked up by now his high school coaches are pro michigan)... His mother showed up and wouldn't let the coaches peak directly with RoJo during which time she told them that Michigan was out of contention with Ronald....A small verbal war soon happened between the Johnsons and the coaching staff. Later on yesterday Johnsons mother went to a Muskegon udge (family friend) and had him call the Michigan coaching staff that Ronald was done with Michigan and they had no chance in getting him.... The Johnsons also had cut off all contact with Michigan and cancelled all visits with the coaching staff.....They refuse to talk to anyone with Michigans staff and remain that Ronald is done with them. It's clear that the rumor of the muskegon high school coaches holding back info from ronald info (which was rumored) had an impact in Mrs Johnson feeling betrayed. PS. Ronalds mom called Michigan a few days ago and led them to believe her son was still very interested.....so either she was telling the truth and Michigan was still in the lead at that point are she was lying to them to set them up for this great fall. English and Carr are now in Cali and even though they cannot speak with the Warrens they feel the presence could help in getting him...
I guess take this for what it is. I always thought he was solid UM but his mom may have other plans. I have a bad bad feeling that $$$ is involed. If so this is very sad, I wouldn't be surprised if Urben is dirty, we know his "by any means necessary" ways. I feel bad for ROJO more then anything. It seems it's out of his hands and in his mothers hands... I'm not sure if I buy this but if it's true.... Just WOW.

wow his mom is a complete bitchFebruary 1, 2007 at 8:36 AMI don't want to speculate on his Mom or anything. What is more important is that we probably lost another in-state recruit.With the probable loss of Finch our recruiting class is really hurt. Some speculation that we may be able to swing 5 star CB Warren away from USC but I am thinking this is unlikely. We are hurting at DB and losing all our good prospects is not good. We are going to be under alot of pressure to get some Db's next year or hope we can talk guys like Carlos Brown into playing DB.February 1, 2007 at 11:36 AMNot sure if I want Brown moving to CB. We already have a WR(trent) that was moved and thats not working out as of yet. Plus I don't want to waste Browns RB skills. If we can get one of the 3(ROJO,Finch and Warren) I will be happy.February 2, 2007 at 1:49 PMwell we got Warren!!! that should ease the pain of this ROJO mess a lil bit!
