2009 TSUN News (football only discussion)

Seems to me that concluding from that "interview" that White is definitely headed to UM wouldn't be very wise, given the loaded questions used by the interviewer.

I don't think they are getting their conclusion from one "interview". I think it's based more on the fact that White has been pretty open about UM being his top school for a while now. I'm not sure where it says he is definitely heading to UM, just that UM is the likely destination. Well, we will now in 5 days for sure. And, I'm positive there will be some hints along the way. Chances are if Sam Webb has a gut feeling, White will be blue.

I mentioned that earlier that White is higher on MSU than he was in the past. A friend of mine sent me an e-mail stating that MSU was actually leading!! We will see how this pans out but there is definately conflicting reports. My source is right 99.9 % of the time. He was wrong about Ronald Johnson. He knows Michigan H.S. football very well. We will see how it pans out but I would not be suprised if he picks MSU.

Why? Perhaps he's got some character issues, but if the kid can play, why not? Chances are he'll end up a 4 star from both services.
From a position/talent standpoint, he's really not needed. He might be more of a slot than a RB, also.

From a perception/hype standpoint vs MSU, I think he's a crucial recruit.

Spartan tailgate seems to think White is Blue.

Austin White is a very good player, and yes he is committing to scUM.
he won't be green as he waited too long and Nick Hill took his slot at RB, Coach D is offering him as a DB/ATH...........
I don't agree with the Hill comment. I'd imagine Dantonio is wanting more than one RB this class.

UMs down 3 RBs after the season. And if you count McGuffie, that's four the past two years.

Who's left after the season:
Cox - 3 years
Shaw -2 years
V. Smith - 3 years
Fitz T. - 3 Years
T. Jones - 3 years
Hopkins - 4 years

They've got to take 3 this class. Drake isn't a RB in this offense.

Well, I guess some of those incoming freshmen will get a redshirt. I can see Vincent Smith getting PT this year. So, maybe 3 isn't completely necessary. I guess I'd rather pick up a DT or ILB instead of a third RB. Personally, I'd rather have Clements than White, but I'd be happy getting White.
