The Spartans picked up a verbal commitment from Ohio cornerback, Jermain Edmondson. He is considered a 3-star prospect by most of the recruiting sites and he had some solid offers: Illinois, Nebraska, Purdue. He has great size for a conerback (6'1") and according to Rivals he has good speed (4.4 in the 40) and a good vertical (33 inches). His film shows that he has some playmaking ability, but also that he is not as explosive as the 4.4 speed would suggest:
He shows some good instincts for the ball and that he is able to compete for the ball against tall receivers. He also appears to have some decent hands. But the few times he gets the ball he doesn't show elite speed. Thus, it's hard to predict Edmondson's future. He may not be athletic enough to excel at corner, but his athleticism may work very well at safety. If he switches to safetey, though, he will need to grow a bit and get stronger. So we'll have to see.
