Michigan recruit receiving death threats after recording himself burning an OSU recruiting letter
Michigan Wolverines commit Logan Tuley-Tillman unapologetic over burning Ohio State Buckeyes mail - ESPN

Michigan recruit Logan Tuley-Tillman is unapologetic about a picture he posted on Twitter of himself burning a recruiting letter from Ohio State, even in the face of a barrage of death threats from Buckeyes fans.

"It made my mom upset, but I just told her it's empty thoughts," 2013 commit Tuley-Tillman told WolverineNation. "It's the biggest rivalry in sports. It's sad that grown men and women get like this over a picture. I say women because there have been a few adult female Ohio State fans sending bad stuff, too. God bless them, though."

There are always fumes in the air around this rivalry, and the prized offensive tackle from Peoria, Ill. literally took a match to them, not fully expecting this kind of reaction.

"Everyone was saying that Mike McCray and I were going to flip to Ohio," Tuley-Tillman said in reference to himself and fellow Michigan commit McCray, a linebacker from Trotwood, Ohio. "My mom showed me the letter, and it was more of a personal thing [to burn it]. I didn't think it would get this much attention."

The picture was accompanied by hashtags that said "GoBlue" and "BeatOhio," which is how Brady Hoke refers to Michigan's chief rival. It has since been picked up throughout the athletic program.

Ohio State defensive tackle commit Tracy Sprinkle (Elyria, Ohio/Elyria), tweeted, "Michigan commits talk a good game. I'd rather show out on the field. #fueltomyfire."

OSU defensive back commit Cam Burrows, a teammate of McCray's at Trotwood-Madison, said he does his talking on the field.

While some of the commitments are using it as motivation, others are taking it more personally. Buckeyes commit Jalin Marshall (Middletown, Ohio/Middletown) believes there is more to the tweet under the surface.

"It shows to me that they are either jealous or have that much disrespect for Ohio State," he said. "He doesn't need to get death threats for it, but if he doesn't want something like this happening then he shouldn't have done it."

Marshall said that he can't wait to step on the field against Michigan, and that he'll remember this when the teams collide.

This isn't the first time a recruiting letter has been set afire, either. In fact, current Michigan quarterback Devin Gardner tweeted a picture similar to Tuley-Tillman's during his recruitment.

because everyone responsible for that stigma is gone and even high school kids are smart enough to understand that it won't affect their careers in a negative way as long as PSU and Bill O'Brien are providing the right situation for them on the field and in the classroom

We will finish strong. Had Mackensie Alexander but he decommitted. All we gotta do is offer his brother a scholly and we get both of them plus Senat. Probably get Marvin Bracys teammate from HS who's just as fast if not faster than Bracy (who will probably be on the US Olypic team). We building depth witH this class

He's a '14 prospect (#1 in the country), but DE Da'Shaun Hand is going to take his first visits next weekend to Virginia Tech and Virginia.

cant judge em until they play

it will be good to see UM vs OSU getting back into the limelight because its been ass for years because of UM sucking it up(all them gizzle thread poll options shoulda been UM sucks if he wanted to be reality)

knowing what Al Borges did at Auburn i dont doubt Michigan will be productive offensively, the question is can UM muster the defensive talent to compete at the top of the Big 10 regularly. Cause even tho talent wise the Big 10 is beneath the SEC the best teams almost always have superior D's

on the SEC tip, anyone hearing anything about TAMU? or their spring game? Kevin Sumlin ran that bullshyt at Houston im curious to see how that translates here(if it does at all)

i think they cruisin for a bruisin

 

[MikelArteta]

logan tulley-tilman what he did is straight swagness, thats the way you get hated by your rival for four years, even if you end up being a no name nygga

 

[dtownreppin214]

devonta pollard just chose Bama in bball recruiting. not sure if you hicks care about that shyt down there.

 

[MMS]

you heard it here first:

Reuben Foster WILL flip to Auburn before the start of CFB season

i got STRONG sources on this one too, Auburn may end up with 4-5 5 stars at the end of this year

 

[Absolut]

hope michigan can beat out bama for poggi, they need another quality DT after getting hurst. seems whenever they get down to a head to head with a school for a quality recruit, they lose out

i dont think Michigan will lose Poggi

hes an extremely strong lean to them
Henry Poggi

It's crazy that my old high school has 2 4* (I think both King + Park have potential to flirt with 5* status) and both are committed to South Carolina....


Life is good....
