"I had a good trip to Michigan. It's the second time I've been there, but the first time with this staff. I have a friend on the team, so it was good to see him as well. The game atmosphere was tremendous, fans really love the team.
"I enjoyed speaking with the coaches and meeting everyone. I know people are trying to figure my situation out and are creating rumors all over the place. I am humbled that many people care about what I'm doing, but at the same time I'm a low key guy and not looking to make a story for someone when there really isn't any story.
"Yes, I will take all my visits. Right now, I don't have the dates to where I'm headed next."
Rumors on OSU boards are saying that OSU has given Kareen a bit of a Ultimatum after this recent show Cancel your visit tour or you will not be part of this class.
Here is the exact quote from OSU insider Bill Green.
"For Kareem Walker to stay in this class he's going to need let them know he's "All-In" and it better come within the next 24 hours or so.
He will have to end the visit tour NOW, or he's going to be out."
Also this Not sure how credible this guy is but its been linked alot around the scouts boards.
What started as a message board rumor has now been confirmed by a source with direct contact to the University of Michigan coaching staff: The nation's class of 2016 #1 high school running back, 5-star Kareem Walker, who has been commmitted to Ohio State since January 12th (the day they won the National Championship) has indicated to fellow Michigan recruits that he intends to de-commit from the Buckeyes and pledge his services to Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh this weekend, when the Wolverines take on #6 Michigan State. (Note - this is the same source who heard directly from Harbaugh's father that Jim would be Michigan's next coach on Dec 18, 12 days before being introduced).
Eh wouldn't really trust chatsports isnt that the same site that the 16yo who claimed to be a Michigan insider when the dude was a high school junior used to post to and was a part owner of? Also from what I see the dude posting this is a guy with 10 Twitter followers on his twitter... If something this big was going down Other reputable insiders would be all over it.... Seems to me like some dude fishing for clicks and hoping to get lucky.
great minds think alike lol I had this page open and was typing my post in between doing something else and realize after it posts that someone else said the exact same thing.
As in anything that has to do with recruiting always take it with a grain of salt. If this story is true then great but if not thats ok too. At least it brings a smile to my face when I read it, would be a great recruit for our program.
This one was authored by Mack Ferguson, says its a done deal he'll be a wolverine. Says source is the same one who called Harbaugh to UM 10 days before it happened. But as always with recruiting until NSD it doesn't mean squat.
Thats the same one we are talking about. Mack Furgeson is some nobody who writes for chat sports with 10 articles first article 6 months ago most on the NFL and a google search of his name shows nothing of him on any other website. and the guy has 10 followers on his twitter Not exactly Sam Webb. Given that Chat sports was ace williams old gig gotta think they are basically tabloid trash and do more harm than good while guessing for click bait.
Antonio Williams has decommitted from Wisky in advance of his OSU visit this weekend. The writer says Urb wants to have someone available if Walker flips. Interesting.
And Hill has Decommited from OSU. but kareem is staying commited for now.. So at this point Looks like the only person who is gaining is Sparty since Hill is basically a MSU lock now.
To me, what he said in that statement really still means nothing. He also said he's still taking all of his visits. If he's so committed to OSU, why is he still taking all his visits? Doesn't seem like something someone 100% committed would do if you ask me...
Comments
any word on how he felt during his visit
Probably still can't hear after sitting in the madness called "The Big House"!!!
Go Blue!
I must say the defense chant was the loudest ive ever heard the Big House on TV
Walker released a statement....
Go Blue!!
OSU contacted Wisconson RB 4 star commit Antonio Williams in the last 2 days after no contact for months. Where there is smoke there usually is fire.
This tells me all I need to know...
Go Blue!!

I wouldn't trust anything chatsports says. Isn't that the high school kid Ace Williams or something that is constantly berated for being garbage?

This may or may not have been directed at OSU. I hope it was.

Just remembered a great quote. "A person is only insecure about losing someone when they know someone else can treat them better"

Ace Williams is a donkey. If that's who writes Chat Sports, then disregard my post.
Go Blue!!

I think in the end he wants to be a Wolverine. GO BLUE!
Walker is still saying he's 100% osu
To me, what he said in that statement really still means nothing. He also said he's still taking all of his visits. If he's so committed to OSU, why is he still taking all his visits? Doesn't seem like something someone 100% committed would do if you ask me...
I agree. Just posting what he's saying. I'd be taking all my officials too if I were him. Why not take some free trips to be wined and dined.

Go Blue!!
Still think it's a pipe dream he comes here.
Just decommitted from Ohio State tonight.
8 Crystal Ball predictions for Michigan in the last hour.
Go Blue!!
