Dantonio on each recruit
Let's try a post with everything but men's basketball! The MSU women's team got a huge win in Madison last night, with Kalisha Keane coming through with more clutch shots. On football signing day, MSU showed more range and focused on the trenches.
* Jack Allen: "Extremely tough, competitive young man. He’s a young man that we can build an offensive line around as he matures as he comes here.”
* Donavon Clark: “Big, physical, tough. He was one of the guys that we really felt like we had to get.”
* Fou Fonoti: "He should pay immediate dividends for us. We project him as a left tackle, long arms, extremely athletic.”
* Kyle Lints: "Very tough, very hard-worker. He’s going to be very excited to be a part of the Spartan family. I believe he’ll compete on this level.”
* Shilique Calhoun: "Outstanding athlete, reminds me a lot of Julian Peterson in many, many ways. Very fluid athlete.”
* Brandon Clemons: “He’s young and he’s still growing. He’s a dynamic person with great leadership qualities. He’s going to flourish at Michigan State."
* Joel Heath: "Big rangy guy, about the size of William Gholston. Should be a dominant defensive lineman for us.”
* Damon Knox: “Very powerful. Reminds me a lot of Robaire Smith. Was in our camp and hits the sled like you can’t believe.”
* Matt Ramondo: “Sheds blockers very effectively, he’s dominant. He’ll be a very exciting player here.”
* Mark Scarpinato: “Runs extremely well for his size. Displays great balance and power. Really outstanding technique, constantly working his hands and feet.”
* Ed Davis: “Guy with a great motor. Talented player, moves with power, extremely quick. Should be an outstanding player for us early in his career here.”
* Darien Harris: “Extremely quick. Very active, very explosive. Great skill, outstanding maturity as a young person.”
* Taiwan Jones: "When you watch his highlight tape, you see him play multiple positions. Outstanding athlete. Great ball skills.”
* Lawrence Thomas: “He’s a thumper-type backer, plays downhill. He’s got an outstanding future ahead of him. He’s everything you want as a player.”
* Arjen Colquhoun: “You don’t know a whole lot about guys when they come from Canada but he came to camp with great size and leaping ability. He’s an outstanding leaper.”
* Onaje Miller: “Very exciting kick returner, punt returner, running back, defensive back. Has top-end speed.”
* Trae Waynes: "Maybe one of the fastest players we’ve ever had in camp. Mom and Dad both ran track at Kansas State, so he’s got the genes to be fast.”
* Roger Williamson: “Plays multiple positions. Outstanding big play guy, has awareness. Was a very good tackler on the film.”
* Connor Cook: “Has great ability to run the football so he can go with the ball and get out of trouble. Got a great arm, makes great decisions and has great leadership skills that will serve him well.”
* Paul Lang: “Great hands, very fluid, very good blocker. When you watch him catch on film and do the things that he does, it’s a no-brainer.”
* Juwan Caesar: “Big-bodied wide receiver that makes plays all over the place. Goes up and gets the ball, makes the tough catch, has speed to get down the field.”
* Andre Sims, Jr.: “Very, very explosive. Every time you put on the film on him you see big plays.”
