Source: Tate Forcier not going to Miami

Former Michigan quarterback Tate Forcier, who was expected to transfer to Miami, will not join the Hurricanes because of personal reasons, a source close to the situation told ESPN.com on Friday.

As of Jan. 1, 2012, Miami will have two scholarship quarterbacks on its roster in Stephen Morris and incoming transfer Ryan Williams, who played last season at Memphis and will have to sit out this fall unless the NCAA grants a waiver.

Forcier's decision was a family one and was made before Williams transferred, a source told ESPN's Joe Schad.

Miami announced in February that Forcier had signed an aid agreement and planned to transfer, but he has not been on campus since he first visited the program.

As a freshman in 2009, Forcier started all 12 games for the Wolverines and completed 165 of 281 passes for 2,050 yards and 13 touchdowns and 10 interceptions.

This past season, Forcier appeared in eight games as a backup to Denard Robinson and completed 54 of 84 passes for 597 yards with four touchdowns and four interceptions. He was declared academically ineligible for Michigan's trip to the Gator Bowl.

This is either the worst or best thing that could happen to Edsall in his first year. With all the family involved it will likely be the best.
 
Miami hasn't suffered in the recruiting dept....they had 8 players drafted? Jacori Harris is probably the most overrated player ever...and Randy Shannon for real? do we need to be told he play LB for the great Hurricanes teams.....I think Golden has something to work with.

winning in the ACC can't be that tough. the last great ACC team was........?

you name it?

they send some players to the almighty NFL.....but, the last 3 GREAT ACC teams are....?

Last three great teams have either been FSU or Miami in the 1990's-early 2000's. The last Miami team that was worth a damn was in 2001 when they beat the Corn but before that they hadn't really been worth a damn since the early 1990's. FSU was a powerhouse in the 1990's so I'm tempted to say the 1987-2000 Noles where they went 152-19-1, .883% but you're right. Clemson is constantly in the top for recruiting yearly and they under perform, UNC is always meh, WF, Duke, NC State, Maryland, USC, and Virginia all under perform or just plain suck and VT is just meh.

Miami won the NC in 2002 but for some reason the NCAA gave it to tOSU.

Face smack.

Harris is already out of eligibility? Lot of hype that didn't translate to wins. For the better part of two decades they had faster athletes than anyone and sent half of their starting lineups to the League. Should be the easiest place to recruit to and win in the ACC. Talk about wasted opportunities.

Miami wasn't a member of the ACC until 2004.

at the end of the year, that USC team with Palmer and J. Fargus would have beaten both tOSU and Miami imo. they absolutely destroyed Brad Banks and Iowa in the Orange Bowl.
 
It would seem that the privileged brat was looking for some attention. There are actually not that many suicide "attempts."
 
sounds like to me some time away from football might be what he needs in the long term. normally you'd point to family support in a thing like this (suicide, attention grab, either way...)....but, not sure that's the best thing either.

just because his old man is a prick and wanna be living through his sons doesn't mean Tate has to be one for the rest of his life. not to go all Jack and Diane here, but Tate has got of living to do....and maybe being "Tate Forcier, website QB" for the next 50 years isn't the best way to go.

After seeing his self-aggrandizing website with all the scholarship letters and how he was obviously buying into his own hype, I'm not in the least bit surprised that this happened. It's easy to be happy when you're popular, everything is going your way, and you're living the good life, but hard to come to terms with the fact that you may have just wasted the best chance of achieving your dream.
 
and what the F is he doing living in Grand Rapids, Michigan?

great party town, Grand Rapids.

like living it out in Limon.
 
Good Lord, it has to be better than Limon. I grew up outside of Limon. Went to grade school there before going to Simla for HS. I avoid Limon at all costs. Probably will go back when my Uncle passes away, but other than that...Nevermore!!
 
The strangest thing about the ACC '04/'05 expansion is it seemingly made the ACC worse. In the 90's you had FSU as a Top 5 (if not Top 3) program, with Georgia Tech, Virginia, UNC (until Mack left) and occasionally Clemson all being strong. Post-expansion it has been a complete cluster**** of mediocrity, although it looks like FSU is finally getting over its post-Bowden hangover and becoming serious again, and Virginia Tech (and i hate the Hokies) will go 11-1 at worst this year.

Thanks to that pathetically weak schedule but hey I'd take going 11-1 any day of the week no matter what the schedule was/is.

It's a disgrace. Beamer always used to do this scheduling tactic, but he finally stepped it up the past few years, and now he's definitely back to his old tricks again for this season. When you play in the ACC, I think you can grow a pair and at least schedule 1 BCS conference school OOC. Then to make matters worse they don't play FSU, and get all the more difficult league games at home. I don't want to hear any of their whining at season's end about deserving a shot at the MNC. Not with that schedule

What, you're not impressed with App State, ECU, Arkansas State, Marshall?? And 2 of those are on the road. :lol:

I bet they're just glad to get JMU off the schedule.
