Avon, Connecticut's Chris Clark is one of the nation's top 2015 tight end prospects. As such, he was at one-time an Ohio State target. Then Clark surprisingly committed to North Carolina.
Then Clark uncommitted from North Carolina, and he became an Ohio State target again. Then Clark committed to that team up North. And that was the end of that.
Until today:
Heard from @Clark8Chris this morning. He said that he is indeed considering taking visits. Doesn't know for sure that he will yet.

Brady Hoke was thought to have a firm "no visits" policy for his commits, but he clarified that earlier this year:
"I know we don't pressure guys into making their commitments, we talk to them about how they feel about their commitment (because) we don't want them to back out of their commitment," Hoke said. "We have an obligation and an honesty when we do offer a guy and accept that commitment, we stop recruiting -- maybe -- a guy at that position because we've got one we can count on.
[...]
Hoke has explained this policy many times in the past. If a player does opt to go against his wishes and take visits elsewhere, he doesn't pull the offer or automatically consider that player decommitted. However, Michigan will -- in some cases -- begin to recruit for that player's spot in a particular class again.
Hoke generally says it depends on the situation, as is the case with each player in recruiting.
It's assumed Chris Clark is talented enough to take other visits while still committed to Michigan, but it's still unclear if Clark will take visits anywhere else.
That said, while it appears Chris Clark is upset with the news, he didn't exactly deny it either:
Not cool when reporters throw you under the bus like that #notrustanymore
