Sparty loses another key recruit
The steady trickle of recruits decommitting from MSU continues. This is the 3rd in two weeks, and their top QB prospect. Check out this article from Detroit Free Press: Michigan State football loses another recruit: 2023 3-star QB from Texas decommits https://www.freep.com/story/sports/college/michigan-state/spartans/2022/11/03/michigan-state-football-recruiting-bo-edmundson-decommits-2023/69615401007/

They are allegedly going to go after Dante moore again now
November 2nd, 2022 at 10:44 PM ^
Good luck with that.
November 3rd, 2022 at 7:58 AM ^
Sure, it's a dream, but I can understand them having it.
After all, when your reality sucks so bad, dreams are all you have left.
November 3rd, 2022 at 8:03 AM ^
That would be "NIGHTMARES".
Here, kids may be considering the very real possibility that "Sanctions-Coming" will be supplanting "Tuck-Coming".

Spartan Tailgate quote on the Spartans moving on to Dante Moore is gold:
"I'm hearing that MSU will begin by going to great lengths to attempt to flip 2023 five-star QB Dante Moore, a Detroit (MI) King product who is currently committed to Oregon. Obviously, this won't be an easy task and expectations should be tempered".

November 3rd, 2022 at 12:03 AM ^
Great lengths, huh? Next excuse coming after Dante says no...
November 3rd, 2022 at 6:37 AM ^
Would you say MSU has a fighters chance?
November 3rd, 2022 at 9:26 AM ^
That's going to require a big "bag"! Do Sparty boosters follow the Tennessee model of using fast food bags? One seriously "super sized" order!!!
November 3rd, 2022 at 10:24 AM ^
I'm also going to great lengths to try to get Giselle Bundchen now that she is decommitted from Brady. Obviously this won't be an easy task and expectations should be tempered
November 3rd, 2022 at 12:28 PM ^
and tempers should be expected
November 3rd, 2022 at 10:43 AM ^
Yeah, Nike can match any bag from MSU. And I am not exaggerating when I say that I struggle to think of a single player that has shown significant improvement under Mel and that staff. Reed was always a good athlete that had good chemistry with Thorne from playing together for years, but you can't build an entire offense from back-shoulder and jump balls (at least not a good one). And Coleman is a big, leapy target, but he also gets away with a ton of OPI. Aside from that, players seem to be the same or even worse.
Also, what 5* QB wants to play for a team with no running game and an O-line that is going to shorten his career?
November 2nd, 2022 at 11:44 PM ^
The collective delusion of the fanbase has gone from comical to Manson-cult level frightening.
The comments from their fans and slappies in the media from the attack on Gemon and McBurrows just validated what many knew they already were....psychotic lil bro.
November 3rd, 2022 at 9:08 AM ^
It's all a plan by the state of Michigan media to keep them down.
November 3rd, 2022 at 9:33 AM ^
This is their decommit list so far this year...
https://247sports.com/college/michigan-state/Season/2023-Football/Decommits/
Four 4* and one high 3*
Pretty significant.
November 3rd, 2022 at 9:48 AM ^
And I'm taking a shot at Gisele Bundchen.
November 3rd, 2022 at 2:32 PM ^
Tough pull. Take the low-hanging fruit: Bridget Moynihan
November 3rd, 2022 at 10:20 AM ^
When pigs fly, he will sign with them
November 3rd, 2022 at 11:32 AM ^
And I'm going to go after Margot Robbie.
Doesn't mean its going to happen.
November 3rd, 2022 at 4:48 PM ^
It’s not allegedly. It’s happening and unless they have 3 bags of NIL money it’s not going to result in anything.
November 3rd, 2022 at 5:33 PM ^
Hmmmm .....MSU or Oregon...
Hmmmm.....jump balls first into a dumpster fire, or go to a quality program.
Gonna be a difficult choice.
November 2nd, 2022 at 10:46 PM ^
You hate to see it.
November 2nd, 2022 at 10:52 PM ^
No, you don't.
November 3rd, 2022 at 7:06 AM ^
That was irony
November 2nd, 2022 at 11:46 PM ^
They hate to see it.
FIFY
November 3rd, 2022 at 8:41 AM ^
Remember all the talk about MSU out-recruiting us? They are now hovering around 40 on 247 sports recruiting rankings.
November 3rd, 2022 at 11:39 AM ^
Tuck came, saw, and got conquered.
November 2nd, 2022 at 10:47 PM ^
seems like he is headed for medical retirement, hasn't played in HS this year.
November 2nd, 2022 at 11:09 PM ^
Yeah, unfortunately he picked up a back injury (at least I think it was his back) during the offseason which has really limited him. I think he's played a bit this season, but there are some concerns about durability. Hopefully he can find another landing spot, he's supposedly a really good kid.
November 2nd, 2022 at 11:14 PM ^
He missed most of the season, but did return from injury. Back injuries can be problematic and his ranking has dropped a lot.
November 2nd, 2022 at 11:49 PM ^
If they processed him because of that then that’s a dick move imo. Look at what we did with JD Johnson. We supported him and he ended up recovering.
November 3rd, 2022 at 6:19 AM ^
We’ve processed injured guys too. But Matt Falcon is the correct not-dickish model.
November 3rd, 2022 at 8:04 AM ^
That stinks. I was really hoping to read that he de-committed because their program is a disgrace/laughing stock.
I would be interested in hearing the opinions of current recruits in the aftermath of the crimes committed by MSU players in the tunnel on Saturday.
November 3rd, 2022 at 8:55 AM ^
Those videos are terrible for recruiting. I would think a lot of recruits' parents are sitting them down now and telling them, "I really don't want you to be a part of a culture like that. We need to look at someplace else."
November 3rd, 2022 at 10:08 AM ^
Yes, but our fans also need to not tweet at their recruits about it (which is apparently happening). I am certain that they are aware of it, and I am sure it will be used to negatively recruit against MSU, but it's a bad look when fans try to be the ones sending the message.
Then again, Twitter is easily manipulated, just like all of the "Michigan fans" calling into 97.1 to bash on Michigan. We know you aren't Michigan fans, Sparty.
November 2nd, 2022 at 10:52 PM ^
The anger in E. Lansing is so great that someone must have said to pay Dante Moore whatever he wants to be a Spartan.
November 2nd, 2022 at 10:54 PM ^
It will come from Mel's pay cut.
November 3rd, 2022 at 12:16 AM ^
I still can't believe they paid that moron $95 million
November 3rd, 2022 at 5:31 AM ^
True - although if Mel's a moron, how stupid are the people who paid him?
November 3rd, 2022 at 8:36 AM ^
How many people making that kind of money look that angry all the time?
November 2nd, 2022 at 10:56 PM ^
Couldn’t have happened to a worse group of guys.
November 2nd, 2022 at 10:57 PM ^
You hate to see it.
November 2nd, 2022 at 10:58 PM ^
I am sure rcmb lowlifes are somehow blaming Harbaugh or the Tunnel for this.
November 2nd, 2022 at 11:03 PM ^
Sparty will Spart. Grab some popcorn and watch them do so.
November 2nd, 2022 at 11:24 PM ^
Tunnel vision.
November 3rd, 2022 at 12:31 AM ^
Feelin' down and dirty, feelin' kind of mean
I've been from one to another extreme
It's time I had a good time, ain't got time to wait
I wanna stick around till I can't see straight
Fill my eyes with that tunnel vision
No disguise for that tunnel vision
Ooh, when it gets through to me, it's always new to me
My tunnel vision gets the best of me
November 2nd, 2022 at 11:11 PM ^
Apparently they think they have a shot at Moore. Of course … MSU believes they can outpay on the NIL front against Nike. 🤣
November 2nd, 2022 at 11:19 PM ^
That mortgage money is drying up with rates headed towards double digits. 😂
November 2nd, 2022 at 11:23 PM ^
Like Moore is going to give up Nike, a playoff contender Oregon team that plays a high powered O, multiple 5*’s on his team, just to play in East Dumpfill. He didn’t want UM where he practiced all the time but would take MSU
News for you Sparty …. Your $$$$ can’t buy everybody.
November 2nd, 2022 at 11:27 PM ^
From the looks of their imploding recruiting class, their $$$$ can't buy anybody.
November 3rd, 2022 at 8:49 AM ^
How do they still have eight 4 stars committed??
