Michigan Recruit Rashad Weaver Decommits, Says He's Not 'Plan B' Option

Defensive end Rashad Weaver decommited from the University of Michigan Monday night.

The reason why he did decommit might surprise you.

The 3-star, 255 lb defensive end from Cooper City, Florida went on Twitter and explained his reasoning. "After being committed for about 7 months. And receiving little to no contact from staff. I was informed by coach Harbaugh that there is a 50/50 chance that he would or would not have room for me NSD. So I was basically a plan B. And I know within myself I am not a plan B player," Weaver said on his Twitter account.

This isn't the first time at Michigan that an offer was reportedly pulled by Harbaugh.

Last week, offensive line recruit Erik Swenson said his offer was pulled by Harbaugh as well.

Weaver went on to tweet that he has received offers from UCF, Hawaii, Iowa State and East Carolina.

Weaver didn't blame Harbaugh and even went on to defend him.

Do you have a problem with how Jim Harbaugh is handling recruiting?
