Neither player did anything at MSU. McGovern wasn't able to crack the DL line up even though there was a considerable need, and he didn't impress as a TE either. Natale left because he saw what he believed to be the writing on the wall when KN verballed to JLS. He was already behind Stanton and Hoyer, and with Nichol verballing he figured he wouldn't ever see the field.

McGovern didn't live up to his high ranking, and Natale bolted before the train wreck that was JLS's final season started so who knows how he would have done under Dantonio. The one thing that has happened to each of these players is that they haven't been able to crack the starting line up at Rutgers, so it is not like they became super stars after leaving MSU. What are they going to say about MSU? That they didn't get a fair shot at playing time and that their talents were wasted? The same could be said for their playing careers at RU as well.
