Heralded running back prospect Mike Weber, out of Detroit, was torn between Michigan and Ohio State leading up to National Signing Day last Wednesday.
Weber picked reigning national champ Ohio State, partly due to his relationship with Ohio State running back coach Stan Drayton. Well, on Thursday, Drayton took a job with the Chicago Bears.
Weber didn't receive the news very well. Just look at this tweet.

And, according to Ari Wasserman of cleveland.com, Weber's high school coach, Thomas Wilcher, an ex-teammate of Jim Harbaugh's at Michigan, thinks Ohio State "100 percent" misled his former player.
On Saturday, Harbaugh tweeted a Sir Walter Scott quote, pictured above, possibly intended to be in response to the situation.
Here's Weber's tweet about Drayton leaving Ohio State.
I'm hurt as hell I ain't gone lie
