Not Panicking on Recruiting

I've "detected" a lot of frustration on recruiting, particularly now that Drake Harris de-committed from MSU and committed to UM.  But, folks, the sky is not yet falling.

I don't like to say much about guys that have not committed (my time is too limited to say much about guys who might not commit), BUT it does look like the Spartans are in a good position with excellent recruits such as Brian Allen (OG), Lawrence Marshall (DE), and Dareian Watkins (WR). If the Spartans could add these 3 to the 4 excellent recruits they already have, we would be looking at the makings of a very strong class. Indeed, we could start talking about the 2014 class as being on the path to becoming Mark Dantonio's best class ever.

Let's also not forget that Dantonio and the gang have a knack for identifying some serious talent late in the recruiting process.  Guys like Darqueze Dennard, Jack Conklin, David Fennell, Justin Williams, and Noah Jones didn't really appear on the radar until quite late in the recruiting process.  I know, most of these guys haven't done much yet, but they will.

So, let's hold off on the panic.  I personally won't start running through the streets naked until the Spartans lose out on 2 of the 3 guys I mentioned.
