No, he was supposed to sign with UM, then cancelled the presser when word leaked.

UM loading up on stud RBs this year will give  a huge advantage with the instate '09 RBs.

Oh well..still a very good finish.

Three 4 stars from one high school...that was one loaded team. They must all have the same 'agent'.

So, MSU might still have a chance to flatten him the first time he tries to hurdle somebody?
Except UM fans will probably love it too.

Team was loaded. Maurice Douglas is the coach. A former NFL'er. He is maybe the most hated high school coach is under constant attack from other high school coaches for stealing players.

U of M-17 4 Star commitments, MSU-1
Dantonio better start closing on some big fish or we will never even come close to winning a BT title or beating Michigan on a regular basis. Great coaching is a huge plus, but talent wins out most of the time (See last year's MSU-UM game). I gave Dantonio a break last year because he didn't have any time to close on big names.
This year we lost out on many right in our home state, most notably Ingram because he is the son of a former Spartan. I love the Fred Smith win, I love the Chris Norman win. But, we've got to get more 4 star kids if we are going to compete at a high level. I'm not happy right now, at all.

why not? It's probably going to happen. If Cissako wasn't a midget he'd probably be heading to USC also.

Yeah, Yeah that's the ticket. All it takes is more 4 star guys.

one word:
Wisconsin. You don't need studs to compete in the pathetic, slow B10. Now if MSU played in the SEC they might be in trouble.

you do know that most of UM's 4-star guys came from out-of-state? UM is a national recruiter. MSU isn't. MSU just needs to do a better job of getting some kids like Perry to just stay home.

Oh! How truly kind of you. Aside from ranting on a message board, what exactly do you plan to do if Dantonio doesn't get the recruits you like?

Haven't read a post like this in the last, oh, 5 minutes or so.
