Glad MSU chose Aaron Henry over Talen Horton Tucker. MSU was his supposed “Dream school”. Both were ready to commit. We chose Henry.

Beggars can be choosers now? When did this happen?

Why didn't Holyfield choose Illinois?

TT is close to home, Beard is one of the top coaches in the game right now, and they had just as much opportunity. I don't think it's too complicated.

The only thing that I'm curious about is SFA guys leaked that he preferred Illinois early on, and that upset him. I wonder how much that opened the door for others.

I'm missing something, you are glad they chose Ayo over THT because of someone stealing something?

Amongst other reasons. Ayo was the better player of the two and he's returning.

Thought Ayo was better player, but also thought he'd bolt and HT would stay another year or 2. The Ill definitely got the best of all that.
