Not only great athleticism but they get the whole leverage/pad level concept too...me likey likey...

Kid looks like a stud, I saw that according to 247 MSU is warm and all other schools are listed as "cool" and Narduzzi is his main recruiter. Hopefully he is liking what he sees, I would love a stud DT in the 2013 class

....We kind of need DTs.

Then he is a guy we would all like to have at a position that is a "must get"

I won't link it because I know you guys hate him, but Sam Webb has an article about Webb with quotes from his father that are very positive for MSU. It is in the News.

No favorites have emerged in this recruitment to date, but there are aspects of many of Webb's suitors that have begun to stand out. Michigan State, for example, has to its credit the distinction of being among the first programs to recruit the talented youngster. The Spartans began courting him as a sophomore and was the third program to offer him last fall. As a result he has been able to form a particularly strong bond with Spartan defensive coordinator Pat Narduzzi.

"Coach Narduzzi was probably one of the first coaches to notice Greg," the elder Webb said. "There's just something — I like Michigan State. He saw something in Greg before anybody else did and that's something that means a lot to me as a parent."

That foresight on the part of the Green and White is now reaping dividends, as Webb is planning to visit East Lansing in mid-April to get a closer look at the program. Should the rest of the Spartan family make as profound an impression as Narduzzi has, Michigan State will likely find itself in especially good standing.

"(Coach Narduzzi) is a good guy," said Webb Jr. "I have a good feeling about (Michigan State). I've always liked them. They repeated another 11-2 season and they've been good for the last four years now — really good. They're also hard-nosed football players like players should be."

"It'll come down to how comfortable he feels," said Mr. Webb. "Looking at both defenses, I like them. I saw (Jerel) Worthy at the combine and I liked him. He's a bigger guy than Greg but he plays the same style. He attacks up front. That's the main thing — both schools attack. I don't like linemen that just sit back and wait. I want him to be in an attacking defense. So when it comes to both of those schools, they get an edge in that category. I want him to be comfortable. That's going to come down to the coaching staff and how he feels. Can you see yourself being a Wolverine or a Spartan? That's going to be the main thing."

Does he already have an iPAD? If so, I have to like our chances

Let's hope his pops make the visit with him to see East Lansing, this kid should be number one on the big board right now if you ask me. I feel a lot of other DT prospects that we have offered are looking elsewhere. Here is to the next Jerel Worthy with this kid.

Sadly, this is the $$$ quote:

"First and foremost you can't miss the great history of the school," Webb Sr. stated. "You definitely look at their (defensive line play). I'm always going to look back at Mike Martin. I watched No. 68 all last year. That definitely (reflects) Coach Hoke's attention to detail, Coach (Greg) Mattison's long, vast history, and then you have Coach (Jerry) Montgomery. How much better can you get than a good D-line at a school like that with three great D-line coaches all on the same staff? You can't beat that."

recruiting is ever changing. you just never know. as long as a kid does his homework and looks at every school and in the end ends up at michigan then it doesnt bother me. everyone has to make the best decision for them. when they start feeding kids BS lines and pressure them into commitments, then it bothers me. I think Webb will end up making the best decision for him and not get pressured into anything so i wish him the best of luck wherever he ends up

It is truly... his decision to make!
