Is a 500 lb. swat a good thing or a bad thing? I guess it debends on whether you're the swater or the swatee.

Caulton Ray maybe? When is this guy gonna just pull the trigger? We need some good RB recruits I think.

Hondo is saying Dion Guy is close to commiting a LB from D.C. Its the same kid scout said commited last week, but no one else confirmed it

MSU Close For Washington D.C. Linebacker!
By Mike the Governor Henne
Spartan Nation has recently learned that Washington, DC linebacker Dion Guy of HD Woodson High School has MSU firmly entrenched as his school to beat. Guy is 6’4” tall, weighs almost 220 pounds and runs a 4.6 in the forty yard dash. Guy is seen by most college analysts as a true “sleeper.” Dion Guy is a sleeper no more. He is becoming rather impossible to ignore. Not only because Guy is super athletic (33 inch vertical leap and a 500 lb swat), but he hits like a derailed locomotive. Va Tech recently started to assert themselves in the Dion Guy sweepstakes, but it appears Tech might be a little too late. Michigan State is firmly leading for Dion’s services and could possibly receive an oral commitment in the coming days. Harlon Barnett has done a wonderful job identifying Guy’s talent early before the east-coast recruiting rush is able to persuade Dion to stay closer to home. In addition to Dion’s impressive measurables, comes exceptional lateral quickness. Dion is the type of player that can wreak havoc on opposing offenses with his size and speed coming off the edge. MSU wants their LB’s to run to the ball and create the collision and Dion seems well suited for the role. There will be more information coming about Dion in the next couple days. I will be at Dion’s high school game on September 14th as HD Woodson takes on Good Counsel High School in Olney, Maryland. I will provide the Spartan Nation a full scouting report.

Ok, I agree that Guy will be a spartan. But that particular blogger at Hondo's site is a complete ****ing idiot. Take whatever he says with a grain of salt. He smokes  , he snorts  , and he shoots up  .

I wouldn't put it 100% out of the question that he ends up at WR, despite being recruited as a DB and playing mostly DB in High School (Ala Ted Ginn). Kid looks to be a great player at his position....but may be an even better PR.

He's definately go the measurables. If he puts on around 20 lbs he could be a beast.

Looks like Guy and Ray rumors might have some legs.

Dion Guy
Guys, I just talked to Dion, and he said MSU offered him, and he did commit. He is the 11th commit. He gave some contact info, and Mike will talk to him later. So now you know who our 11th commit is.

Dion Guy may be #12, but Ray was 11.

#1 on the wishlist:
Kenny Demens
Any chance this guy comes here??? Him and Greg Jones could be fearsome for opponents for years to come.

It's in this thread, but I believe he stated publicly that he can't decide between UofM and Nebraska.

He has apparently re-added MSU, but those two schools are his leaders.
