One of the top cornerbacks in Ohio, Darian Hicks, will soon visit Michigan and Ohio State. Are the Spartans still Hicks’ top choice?

He's already been here, so he'd be making a second stop. I wouldn't read too much into that, or most things other than commitments.

I've seen a quote on this kid saying if UM offered they would be #1 on his list.

Sounds like even money to me. Good kids visit school don't have a complex... We don't get ever kid we want, but we get our guys and they pan out, We have a better secondary and better coached DBs than Mich or OSU.

NOT necessarily sure about better coached DBs than OSU. Meyer did produce a lot of NFL draft picks in his Florida tenure.

Urban has only been coaching his guys for 6 months... maybe

The only fading we're doing involves Draymond Green's fade away jumper.

Florida also had lots of NFL talent on his teams. How much of that is coaching is arguable. People always look at programs and say "they send more players to the NFL". Well...that's not impressive to me when you're pulling in Top 3 class every year. Most of these kids would be NFL draft picks if they went anywhere in the country.

Case in point: Janoris Jenkins, a 2008 UF commit, got in all sorts of troubles and transferred to an FCS school (Northern Alabama)
http://rivals.yahoo.com/footballrecruiting/football/recruiting/player-Janoris-Jenkins-73131
high 4-star, All American CB, etc. etc. He's now mentioned as a first round NFL talent (though off-field concerns will hold him till later rounds). Does that mean that Northern Alabama is great at turning out CB talent? Of course not.
Michigan State does not and will not run the 3-4 defense.

Nope.
