The coaches told the currently committed linebackers that they would not pursue other linebackers, which is why they didn't go after EJ Levenberry, Shane Jones, etc. I think it's pretty clear this has to do with a guy who's looking around.
November 18th, 2012 at 9:28 PM ^
If this is true, why not reach out to Levenberry? I remember he and his father reaching out to Michigan a few months ago. I would love to be a fly on the wall in the recruiting office.

November 18th, 2012 at 9:35 PM ^
Until I get better evidence, I'm gonna go with Sam Webb's sources (who say this has nothing to do with McCray) over your "pretty clear" speculation.
Can we please not start a bunch of "OMG, McCray is leaving" stuff until we get at least a little evidence that McCray might leave? The kid himself has been really adamant that he isn't going anywhere.
November 18th, 2012 at 9:44 PM ^
That's fine. It's not necessarily because of McCray.
November 18th, 2012 at 9:36 PM ^
As in it likely isn't because of an impending current player departure?
November 18th, 2012 at 9:49 PM ^
Do you think a current player could be considering a transfer?
November 19th, 2012 at 8:16 AM ^
There are a couple possibilities, but I haven't seen/heard anything definitive.
November 18th, 2012 at 9:27 PM ^
Seems like he wouldn't bother to drive up if he didn't want to stay committed.
November 18th, 2012 at 9:31 PM ^
With his Spartan family legacy he isn't going to switch, but with Sparty fighting just to go a bowl game why not offer? What do we have to lose?
November 18th, 2012 at 9:33 PM ^
They know they aren't getting Reschke (or at least understand it is a huge long shot). But Brother Rice puts out good talent (including Reschke) and by not even offering that can look back to future prospects from that school. Sometimes you get your name in there more for future prospects than the one actually offered.
Again, not bashing Reschke or saying Michigan doesn't want him at all, but from my understanding he and his family have a long standing relationship and love for MSU, so this seems more like an offer for the future than anything else.
November 18th, 2012 at 9:35 PM ^
Reschke is probably our 2nd strongest commit and does alot of recruiting. His dad is also a Spartan and said during his recruitment that he'll have a big say in where Jon goes.
November 18th, 2012 at 9:43 PM ^
You should've seen T-Pain's post after said Caleb Benenoch affair. One of the RCMB-ers saved it as his sig, something like "The Caleb Benenoch decommitment is a mortal blow to our football program"
November 18th, 2012 at 10:07 PM ^
I found it extemely fitting of RCMB that in the same thread they ogle over Reschke's girlfriend.

never change, RCMB. You are perfect just the way you are.
November 18th, 2012 at 10:18 PM ^
I mean... I'd say the dude is doing pretty well for himself.
November 18th, 2012 at 10:22 PM ^
Reschke's Girlfriend....who's presumably in HS
And there's only 1 or 2 posts saying they shouldn't be ogling High Schoolers....(with even someone pointing out the Age of Consent in Michigan)
November 19th, 2012 at 2:42 AM ^
Dammit, this made me go to RCMB to enjoy some possible sparty schandenfreude, but I almost forgot what a godforsaken tire fire it is over there. It makes me appreciate the MGoMods all the more.
November 18th, 2012 at 9:44 PM ^
Credit to your RCMB posters for not panicking (much) but this wins out:
Payback for us recruiting David Dawson. They'll probably try to sleep with all our moms too.
November 18th, 2012 at 9:49 PM ^
November 18th, 2012 at 9:34 PM ^
He's bestfriends with Shane Morris, FWIW.
November 18th, 2012 at 9:37 PM ^
Then Morris might have tipped off the coaches that Reschke has a strong interest in UM.
November 18th, 2012 at 9:45 PM ^
November 18th, 2012 at 9:34 PM ^
Why?
Cass Tech prospects > anyone at BR. Defend our home turf, and keep everyone out of CT.
November 18th, 2012 at 9:44 PM ^
How exactly does a phone call to Jon Reschke prevent us from "defending our home turf"?
And Cass Tech is great, but I'd rather not have an 85-man roster of Cass Tech grads.
November 18th, 2012 at 9:46 PM ^
Cass Tech's 2014 linebackers aren't that great.
November 18th, 2012 at 11:35 PM ^
You're an arogant ass and you dont know everything. Get over it already
November 18th, 2012 at 10:23 PM ^
but it's not exactly like we're getting great results from CT players in recent years
November 18th, 2012 at 9:40 PM ^

November 18th, 2012 at 9:45 PM ^
He's projected to MLB. Max Bullough's heir apparent.
November 18th, 2012 at 9:47 PM ^
In MSU world, have there been any whispers that Reschke might be looking around? Did this come totally out of nowhere?
November 18th, 2012 at 9:50 PM ^
Its very strange. I don't think he's wavering on his commit at all, he's one of our strongest commits and his dad is a Spartan.
November 18th, 2012 at 10:01 PM ^
Would things change if Narduzzi left?
November 18th, 2012 at 10:35 PM ^
Exactly my first thought as well. Perhaps Michigan's staff is hearing the rumblings of potential jobs offers for Narduzzi. Just a thought.
November 19th, 2012 at 12:33 AM ^
Taking that "Necessary Roughness" on the road to Mount Pleasant.
Chippewas might as well go Sparty fail twice.
November 19th, 2012 at 12:40 AM ^
If recruits were hearing about Narduzzi possibly leaving, I think there are other recruits before Reshcke that would leave. Demetrius Cooper is probably the one most likely to decommit if something major happens, he never sounded too sure when he made his commitment, and the now #1 Team in the country was going after him hard.
November 18th, 2012 at 9:41 PM ^
November 18th, 2012 at 10:32 PM ^
How do you know this?
November 18th, 2012 at 10:22 PM ^
Is it me or does it seem like MSU always has a large number of legacy guys? Maybe we do too and I'm not noticing it (we have had Troy Woolfolk and Braylon Edwards), but it seems like there's a recruit like this every year for MSU. It'd be nice to nab him.
November 18th, 2012 at 10:27 PM ^
November 18th, 2012 at 10:30 PM ^
If we're trying to poach MSU recruits I hope we give a call to Shane Jones too.
November 19th, 2012 at 12:35 AM ^
All your linebacker recruits of 4 stars are belong to us
November 19th, 2012 at 12:42 AM ^
All 3 Bulloughs to transfer to Michigan?
/rumor
November 18th, 2012 at 10:32 PM ^
FWIW, there are some quotes floating around from Reschke today. The basic message is, "Let's talk about this later. I want to focus on my state championship run."
I like where this might be going.
November 18th, 2012 at 11:42 PM ^
I wouldnt get too worked up about it. The kid has a huge game coming up and probably just wants to concentrate on that alone. There is more going for MSU than UofM at this point.
November 18th, 2012 at 11:11 PM ^
Treadwell is out of there. If I were a recruit and the D-co was leaving, I'd think twice.
As long as we're starting rumors
