He's ridiculously good better than his bros, and he's one of the few guys who could beat out Caper and Baker.
For him not going to State:
He'll have to earn his way onto the field, as the RB depth chart is stacked.
Basically, there is no way he ends up in the Big Ten if he doesn't go to State.

The thing is, anywhere he goes that will be worthy of his talents will have stacked backfields. Ohio State, USC, LSU, Florida, they all bring in top running backs every single year.
Also, look at it this way. Let's say he comes to
MSU. He redshirts in 2010 so in 2011 he's a redshirt freshman. Let's look at the scholarship chart ahead of him by that time.
Seniors
Anderson
Leggett
Juniors
Ray
Winston
Sophomores
Baker
Caper
by his sophomore year, Anderson and Leggett will be out of eligibility. Ray and/or Winston will probably be at a different position. By his junior and senior seasons, he will be getting LOTS of carries, however, he will get worked into the offense in smaller doses early on.
