A lot of those kids are now going to the Nike or ABCD camps, and they remember those years.

Comparing Horton to Cleaves is a joke.
And the funny thing about the second comment is that now you have guys like Chris Allen, from Georgia, coming to State. He recently talked about how he drew a picture of himself as a Spartan when he was in 5th grade, which would have been 6-7 years ago, right when
MSU was in their consecutive final four streak. Kids who are currently in those Nike camps probably became aware of big time college sports when
MSU was totally dominant. They are far too young to remember the fab five. So I guess
MSU made a little more noise than outside of just Flint. Count on it.
