You sound like a MSU fan, who knows nothing about recruiting. I sound like a dude who has a younger cousin about to play D1 football and has been on the same campuses with a lot of these recruits so I know what they're being told.
I have reached a point in life where I don't argue sports with people anymore because cats are consistently irrational when it comes to something they like. I think the kid stays in our class BTW. I'm just stating that there can be no football reasons for him to pick MSU over U of M. None at all. It would have to be environment.
