You also have to figure that he’s a 17 year old with 2 prominent older brothers. Some want to follow in their brothers footsteps. Others will want to make their own path. Both are totally normal.

On a related subject (I guess), what is the consensus opinion of this message board as to why Dylan McCaffrey chose to attend Michigan rather than Stanford?
My assumption is that he thought it might be too much of a challenge to win playing time ahead of KJ Costello or Davis Mills, but I could be wrong about that.

During the last Spring game in which CMC could have participated (held out by coach Shaw), I watched the game right next to Lisa and Easy Ed. At halftime, an eager, older fan approached Ed and asked him what Christian thought about sitting out the Spring game and why his other son chose to go to Michigan.

Ed responded that it was killing Christian to sit out the game, he wanted to play in it, but it was the coach's call. Regarding Dylan, he said that Dylan, since being very little, had Michigan posters on his wall. He really followed Michigan and went with his heart.
