The Under Armour All-American Game was a television set or streaming device near you Thursday night, and there was a pretty good matchup to keep an eye on. A budding rivalry of sorts for one of the greatest rivalries in all of American sports.
Ohio State commit and No. 1 wide-receiver in the country, Julian Fleming, lined up against Michigan commit, defensive back Andre Seldon, who happens to be a top twenty DB commit for the 2020 class.
That in itself was worth the price of admission, but apparently Seldon is ready to fit right in up in Ann Arbor because he’s already doing some false trash-talking. Seldon shared a graphic after the game claiming to hold Fleming to zero catches on three targets.
Can’t wait for this matchup the next 3-4 years. pic.twitter.com/dsaVVaCzS3

Of course there’s only one problem with that.
Fleming had two catches in the first half while lining up against Seldon. Not only that, but the future Michigan defensive back was caught on film being run over by Fleming as he caught a pass and broke out of Seldon’s attempted tackle for a first down.
Except it was 2 catches in the first half including one that went for a first down. https://t.co/GvBAT9Mdgw

Fleming was having none of it and took the opportunity to set the record straight after the game. The thread itself is also worthy of some of your time as it’s roast city on Michigan.
Woah now I had 2 in the first half😂 but my boy hard tho!🤞🏽 https://t.co/BdgwwcAIY2

When will these kids that go to Michigan just learn to play the game and quit talking so much in the media. Good luck in future matchups kid.
