4-Star OT Kai-Leon Herbert Commits To Michigan By Way Of Zombie Video

I have officially seen it all. Remember when it was thought that a kid sitting at a table with five different hats, deciding which school he would attend, was considered extreme for a high school senior? That was only a few short years ago.
Kai-Leon Herbert is a 4-star recruit from Florida and earlier this week narrowed down his college choices to Florida, Miami, and Michigan.
Wednesday afternoon, Herbert and The Bleacher Report teamed up for a video to help announce where he was going to attend school.
This is where the story gets odd. The video is done as if he was a star in the hit TV show 'The Walking Dead.' Herbert is walking around killing zombies (all wearing a shirt of a Big Ten school) and at the end -- once he apparently has killed the final zombie -- he rips off his shirt and is wearing a University of Michigan shirt and says "Go Blue."
