Message: [QUOTE="DoctorBombay, post: 2059113, member: 626"] Luck implies chance more than effort. It suggests extenuating circumstances having a greater impact on his choice, rather than the kid simply having a preference for SU. Bad luck would be if a relative got sick and he wanted to stay closer to home, and therefore accepted another offer. Good luck might be Michigan wanting him to play out of position, or running out of schollies, & us being in position to have him do both. There is no indication that this was anything more than a kid having a choice between us and UM, and he chose us, "luck" be damned. He was officially offered on Friday, and had plenty of time to flip, but didn't. A wise man once said: "The harder I work, the luckier I get". I'd wager that's what Dino and company would say was the main factor, as to why they bagged this signee. [/QUOTE]
