All the answers were kind of weird. I love MSU, and can't $ay why I chose um over them, but I really love all the coaches there. It probably isn't money, as much as it is the high pressure tactics at um. I really don't know.

We will have to beat them on the field this fall. They will be very young, obviously.

Good luck to him. MSU could have used a player of his caliber just like Iowa, ND, OSU and every other Power Five school that offered.

For his sake he's only got to beat out 5* Peoples-Jones and 4* Tarik Black who have already enrolled from the '17 class plus fellow 4* Hawkins, he'll be up against 3 other 4*'s from the '16 class plus a couple of 3*'s including McDoom who saw PT as a freshman.

Vlad might be getting geeked bout Drake Harris redux.

Given all of the above, the fact that Martin STILL wants to sign with UM tells you all you need to know about the state of recruiting. I mean, the kid might never off the bench, from what you're saying. And still...?

Good job MD!

Let me help you. It means he thinks he can play before the other 8 WR's recruited in the last two years. When it becomes all the rage to put 9 WR's on the field at once, I'll start to worry. Til then I hope they sign 9 more the next two years.

That is possible, eh? Maybe Blackshear's offer wasn't commitable until they heard from Hayes?

They are different types of players. I don't think the staff was ready to take Blackshear based on what I read.

by **WhiteBoyHatcher** 2017-01-31, 11:00

They are also after some big Tolbert kid from Alabama that they really like who has no film from last year and is not even in the Rivals database.

We are.

You think we're NOT done because we flipped a kid from Purdon't?? Believe me, we were done when we had to start flipping kids from SW Miss Valley CC.

We lack both talent and depth on both lines. This class doesn't help much.

You know a recruiting class is in trouble when you have to "jump up" to get into the 29 spot.

If you're not in the top 15 or so, does it really matter how much jumping up/down is going on? Probably not.

Scout has us 19th, I'm pretty sure they have the most scientific methods. Rivals and 247 are simply denialist copycats.

Yeah, I don't get them. I don't understand how a shitty staff like Dantonio's can take the 35, 30, 29 ranked classes and win 3 of 6 BT's, a rose Cotton and get to the playoffs. Somebody somewhere is working on some metric that can make every thing make sense. When he/she does they'll bring out pie charts and graphs with colors and shit like that. Then, their #1 team will promptly lose to their # 33 team on the field.

Other last-minute MSU targets include defensive end Koby Cumberlander from Georgia, cornerback Emmanuel Flowers from California, wide receiver Laress Nelson from Florida, defensive end/linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah from Virginia and wide receiver Jalen Tolbert from Alabama. None of them appear at the top of recruiting rankings. Tolbert, a multisport athlete, doesn’t even garner a star rating from 247sports.com.
