    They're both very good. If the staff will take either at this point then I'm happy with either.

    Solomon Warfield wanted to attend the Green & White game but it falls on his little brother's birthday. He wants to visit MSU again soon. Maybe a reprieve for Hicks if he really wants to attend MSU. I think the next time Warfield visits MSU that he will commit.

    I'm very sorry if this is taking it off topic and mods feel free to delete if it is.

    Duffy: Do you think there is anyway possible we would have room/make room for Williams, Allen and Warfield? I want all three and I think our depth at WR is a lot better than at DB these days. Especially for last years class.

    I agree it would be awesome to have all three of them but again, It doesn't seem like we've got the ships to do it. Every one of those guys you named are guys we would take.

    Not CBD, but yes, I think MSU would have room for all 3 of those guys you mentioned. We know they want 2 more DBs (1 S, 1 CB)....and Williams doesn't count against that. By taking Williams, I think that means the staff won't take another OLB in this class....but I'm confident they would still take Allen along with a CB (whether that be Warfield, Hicks, Mosley, etc.).

  • “Michigan would be extremely high on my list if they were to offer,” said Hicks. “I have been to Michigan before, and I know they have the best in both football and academics so it’s really the total package.”

    Hicks also wants to camp at two other programs this summer.

    “I’m going to go to Ohio State and Michigan State too,” said Hicks. “Michigan State has already offered and they are up there on my list. Ohio State, I believe I could still earn an offer there.”

    From an article on the scUM site. Not great comments from our perspective.

    Was that article recent? He made those same comments in an article from a few months ago. It was over a 10 day period when he basically named 3 favorites in a short time span. He had visited us and named us a favorite, then heard a bunch of interest from um and Penn State and named them both favorites too. I think those comments may be from that January/February interview.

    That article makes it sound like he really wants to go to UM or tOSU. MSU is a safety school for him

    MSU always seem to be the safety school for Ohio recruits, it's always between osu and michigan for the top recruits in Ohio. Every Ohio player that comes to MSU is only because OSU and Michigan didn't want them.

  • Every player huh?

    He has never sounded like he particularly wanted to be here.

    I think he likes MSU, he just likes the thought of having the option to go to UM or OSU more.

  • MSU seems to be his plan b school. I'm cool with that as long as those other two don't offer him.

    Well, not that I necessarily agree with that, but Monty and Shane both did not hold OSU offers.

    Nobody should be turned off by Hicks wanting an offer from OSU and UofM. Recruiting is a two way street. Some kids are plan b kids for certain schools and some schools are plan b for certain kids. Some kids are rubbed the wrong way with the slow play while others subconsciously desire the girl that plays hard to get.

    Lots of kids on MSUs football team right now wanted that OSU offer. Instead they went to MSU, won more games, best represented the big ten last season, and now bleed green.

    I'm not turned off by it at all. Probably all of our great Ohio players would have ditched us for an OSU offer. Some of them would have ditched us with a UM offer or would have gone there if Hoke had been the one recruiting them. As long as they don't do what Pittman did and screw us over with other players lower on the board, it's nothing to take personally. They'll be die-hard Spartans once they get on campus, no matter the circumstances.
