Spartans Pick Up Big Time Recruit

MSU just received a commitment from Ohio defensive end, Se'Von Pittman.  This is a huge get for the Spartans, on par with the acquisitions of William Golston and Lawrence Thomas.  Pittman is rated as a four star recruit by all the recruiting services, and his national position rank ranges from top 14 (by ESPN) all the way to top 3 (by 24/7).  His highlight film looks pretty good; he looks explosive and fast.  He does look like he needs to add a lot of weight and he sometimes doesn't separate well from blockers.  But overall, this is a spectacular recruit for Dantonio and the Spartans.  As I said a few weeks ago, I am not worried about MSU's recruiting falling behind Michigan's.  There is so much talent in the Midwest this year and Ohio State is falling apart (indeed, Pittman may be one of those players MSU was able to get because Ohio State is in trouble).  The Spartans will get their guys this year.  No need to worry about that.
