For a moment – but only a moment – it looked as though Aaron Scott Jr. was committing to Michigan.
After a recruitment that kept everyone in suspense for months as Scott deliberated whether to choose between Ohio State, Michigan and Oregon, Scott decided to add a little more suspense before announcing his decision in Springfield, Ohio on Sunday night.
With hats and backpacks from Oregon, Michigan and Ohio State all sitting on the table, Scott started his announcement by picking up the hat and backpack from Oregon. What looked momentarily like Scott would be heading west to the Ducks instead became an elimination as he set the Oregon gear on the floor.
