Like this kid quite a bit, and think teams passing on him because of height concerns or his interior line projections are overthinking this one.

Centerville offensive lineman commits to Michigan State

Benny McGowan, a 6-foot-4, 300-pound junior offensive lineman at Centerville High School, committed to Michigan State today during a weekend visit to the campus to attend the team’s spring game.

McGowan said he enjoyed the visit that included meetings with coaches, a tour of the campus, watching a few team meetings and attending the spring game.

“I love the feel of the place,” he said. “The coaches were great, and it was best set-up of any visit I’ve been on.”

bummer. i really wanted to see this kid get an offer. can't take them all but i hope this isn't one we regret in a couple years.

 

[korchiki]

Congrats to him.

FWIW with the connections of JT and Ullery, it is highly likely they told him that he would not be getting an offer from tOSU.

I go to centerville. The chart in the weight room says he benches 400 and squats 560. the 1080 is his leg press.
