He might prove me wrong, but for as much as I thought Edwards was underrated, I think Cabana is WAY overrated.  Hell, when MSU offered him, I sort of hoped it wasn't commutable yet.  He looks like a fast kid, but not a football player
We'll find out soon just how good he is or ain't. He's enrolling early and will play as a true frosh. He also did put up nearly 2,400 all purpose yards rushing + receiving and scores 38 touchdowns his senior year and was the driving force which lead Dexter to it's first ever state title. So it's not like he doesn't have production on the field to back up those track times. He's also legitimately around 6' and 180 so it's not like he's an undersized 5'7, 160 pound kid like Noel Devine or Vincent Smith back in the day. Miami has been trying desperately to poach him and that coaching staff seems to target players they believe are elite and throw stupid NIL $$$$ at HS recruits. He looks downright explosive, and when he's got a crease and hits the hole he takes off like a bat out of hell. He's legitimately really really fast.

MSU picks up a commitment from a late blooming 3* WR out of Texas.  A decade ago, I'd really like this.  As it is, I think he needs some seasoning, but has a very high ceiling, but if he doesn't play much his first couple years, will he stick around?  Minnesota was his presumed landing spot until MSU offered late.

or if he winds up being really good what's to stop him from going to USC or the next highest bidder ala Jordan Addison who won the Bilentikoff at Pitt only to transfer to USC to play with Caleb Williams the next year. Truly a wild wild west with the portal these days.

Yeah, we'll see.  "Late bloomer" simply means he doesn't have the size or speed measurables to stand out at camp, but he put up big numbers his senior year.  So I think he's a gamer.  But I think, much like it took him a minute in HS, I'd be shocked if he's a contributor in 2023 or 2024.

It appears Matt Rhule is not a fan of losing recruits to Oregon and Miami money

I'm gonna guess this was announced the day before early signing day for 'crootin purposes?

BERT signs a new 6 year extension with Illinois. Championship level coaches, eh. Couldn't beat some pretty bad Indiana or Michigan State teams to win his division but somehow that's championship level. 9-9 in conference certainly screams championships baby.
He got more conference championships than booger has. Just sayin'.

Correct

Apparently, the ghost meant is not real.
Oregon money not real, Miami money not real

4* QB from Oregon, who flipped from WSU to MSU, signed today.  Some were nervous that the trickle down effect of Dante Moore going to UCLA would be Oregon trying to poach this in state kid from MSU

No he doesn't. Jeem won his conference twice at University of San Diego, won the NFC conference in the NFL once, and he's won the B1G conference twice. That's 5 conference championships to BERT's 3. And BERT only got the 2012 B1G title- a season in which Wisconsin went 8-6, because Ohio State got banned from post-season play. Ohio State was 12-0 and had beaten Wisconsin in Madison. Highly suspect "conference title" there that should have an asterik next to it if you ask me.

BERT ain't won jack in a loooooong time. Hasn't won jack at Illinois and really he sh*t the bed vs two really bad Indiana and Sparty teams otherwise he would've had 10 wins and been playing in the conference championship. That've been something to sunshine pump about at Illinois. Sunshine pumping over an 8 win season is pathetic.
