Did Mark Dantonio subtweet Michigan after latest decommitment?
The stakes of the recruiting wars between Michigan and Michigan State have been raised now that Jim Harbaugh is involved. And it seems like a Michigan State coach may have subtweeted Harbaugh on Twitter Monday.
Michigan on Monday had another recruit decommit from the program. Three-star defensive lineman Rashad Weaver announced his decision to decommit from the school and complained that the Wolverines’ staff did not seem interested in him.
Not long after that news emerged, a tweet from Spartans head coach Mark Dantonio’s account said “the righteous shall prevail….”

The tweet was deleted, but it curiously appeared on the account for Michigan State recruiting coordinator Curtis Blackwell:
The righteous shall prevail….

Some say Blackwell was running Dantonio’s account and mistakenly posted the tweet to the head coach’s account. That could be the case. But it seems like the “righteous” tweet was a subtle message about the way the Wolverines and Harbaugh are handling their recruits regardless.
You can bet Harbaugh will take notice of the tweet from his rival, too. After all, he knows a thing or two about subtweets.
