Otherwise, you will lose a scholarship for a position of need by taking him.
Now, will he still have a spot? I don't know....perhaps as a LB, or S, or ATH. However, to think we are not going to turn down talented kids who don't fill our needs just because they want to come to MSU is not realistic. We just did this with the Guard prospect Spiker from Ohio. |
Thank you! I don't understand what some of you guys don't get. We have 4 maybe 5 spots left in this class max (unless we have some additional attrition) and those spots are going to be used at other positions, period. If the kid wanted to be a spartan like some claim he does he would have made his decision sooner. He lost his spot, thats his problem. If a spot comes open down the road fine, we can take him, but as of now he is pretty much SOL.
