His correct measureables are now 6'3" 207 lbs and probably a 4.5 40 yard dash.

I've heard he's still growing, but when did the 3 inches exactly occur?

I'll wait until the MSU weigh-in to change his measurables.

Burrell said Michigan made a run at him when Rich Rodriguez took over as coach, dangling the carrot of playing quarterback in Rodriguez's spread-option offense. But Spartans will love his reasoning for declining: "Michigan is really not the place for me. I feel they are kind of arrogant. It's a great university, but it really just wasn't a good fit. (I) felt MSU was more like home."
