Nice to hear that he told MSU he wasn't interested any longer.
It's not the fall that hurts...it's when you hit the ground.

That is good news. Dantonio (sp) seems like a prick. I am glad he has told them not to bother.

Awesome.

It's strange to see so many early commits.

Sure, maybe we are just hearing about them sooner than usual.

But, you know, any time one of our commits is telling the Big Ten to take a hike, I'm pretty happy.

That something I definitely wouldn't expect from a BG recruit. Getting actually recruited by a decent B10 school and turning them down. Hmm....lets see he's 6'1 180 , projected to be a WR/DB and he could grow an inch, hope we keep him at either WR or corner.

Naw, they're gonna turn him into a linebacker just to ruin all of your fantasies. :-D

Sorry, I just couldn't resist... :P

I believe both of the OL kids from the same high school in Cincinnati had offers from Big Televen programs. Indiana or Illinois I think. Not top tier programs, but still...

I was just about to say the same thing. He beat me by a safety. Damn holding in the end zone...

Didn't take the ACT, but 31 seems like a score that puts him above the range for Toledo :lol:

I also scored a 31, and wouldn't even consider UT. So, yes, I think he's definitely above the range for Toledo.

Along this same line, according to Rivals, there are a number of "our boys" that have been courted by some "bigger" name schools.

Let's hope we can hold on to each and every one of them and even add some additional top-notch talent. (QB anyone?)
