Expects to get a Penn State offer soon. Story is mostly about the Michigan State angle. Doesn't have any favorites yet.

If kid wants to be in this class, he better make the decision relatively soon. With 4 of six DB spots taken and Morris could pull the trigger any day now ... it comes down to Love, Hawkins, Smith and someone else for one spot.

I really wanted Love in this class, but if Smith takes his spot, I'll take it.

Morris
Smith

Hodges

Willis

That's not a bad collection of DB's in one class. I'll take it.

No Hawkins? I love him ... versatile player. Let's go for the jungular from the Land of Crabs.

I have Hawkins at WR since that is the position we are recruiting him for. I also love his skills on that side of the ball.

And I thought Sugar Ray's tour bus was once known as the "Land of Crabs"...
