A few thoughts on his recruitment at this point:
-The Michigan offer is insignificant other than the fact that it'll probably lead to more offers from big schools. After the way Michigan's staff treated Rob Schoenhoft following his commitment to tOSU, you probably won't see any Bombers heading to Ann Arbor unless they grow up as Michigan fans or don't get any other big time offers. Lack of foresight on Vloyd's part, he really opened up the door for
OSU to get most of X's big time players.
-Louisville and
OSU are the two biggest players for Greg at this point. I wouldn't expect Louisville to go away either, seeing as how Stephon Ball and Darius Ashley also have offers there. These are Greg's two best friends, and the guys that convinced him to play this year in the first place. Louisville has long been Darius' favorite, and there has been talk of those three all heading there together. However, twice there have been articles where Coach Specht or Darius himself have said he was probably going to make a decision soon, one combining that with Fred Craig's imminent verbal to Stanford. The fact that both times nothing happened leads me to believe it was somewhat of an attempt to get more offers for Darius, so he might not be completely enamored with Louisville. If Darius heads somewhere else, they wouldn't be nearly as attractive of an option to Greg.
-Given that Greg has said he isn't going to take officials until after the season, the landscape could change dramatically before it comes time for him to make a decision. I think most people expect to see a lot more big offers coming his way, so all there really is to do at this point is sit back and watch the offers pour in.
