Mailbag question: Adrian Witty?

Mailbag question: Adrian Witty?

What ever happened to Adrian Witty? I thought he was going to be in this class?

Thanks for the question.

Kim-

To the best of our knowledge it has been implied or even stated that Adrian Witty was denied entry by the Michigan Admission Department.

Some "experts" had for months that all would be fine with young Adrian, but the university may or may not have put the foot down (so to speak) to make a point (about standards).

It was stated to us that Coach Rod called his friend at Cincinnati, Coach Butch Jones, to go to bat for the acceptance of Adrian Witty.

Well we have now looked on several Cincinnati sites and do not see his name anywhere as a Cincinnati commit. So maybe Cincinnati saw a problem as well.

Honestly we feel badly for the kid and wish him well no matter where he goes or lands. Further, let us all hope he was not the “victim” of some political power play which we believe is not the case. Adrian is a loss to the program.
