Just got a scholly offer from the bullies out east.. This will show if Iowa has what it takes to keep one of its top recruits committed
Lattimore MSU offer
- Thread starter HawkNAZTY20
- Start date
He and A. Jackson will end up at MSU, IMO. Hopefully not, possibly just bad feelings against MSU still but it's hard to beat the hometown boys...
Lattimore told Rob Howe the offer doesn't change anything and he loves Iowa.
Yeah I haven't seen anything about Jackson and MSU in awhile so I wonder if they are still recruiting him. It is a positive that they are visiting Iowa at the same time (Jan. 22) along with Golston and Boswell.
I think Lattimore and Golston are all in for the Hawks. I have seen Jackson, he is really raw but has tremendous upside with good coaching. I would like to see us get this kid.
I think Des Kings development and success has really changed the perception here in Michigan about the Hawks. I have lived here 13 years and have received more positive comments when walking around with hawk apparel than I did when McNutt caught that winning catch.
Tremendous visibility when you make the championship game. I really think we had MSU on the ropes in the 4th quarter, credit them for a program changing drive.
Hard to root for arrogant Wolverines but MSU not so much. I like Dantonio over cry baby Harbaugh. Irks me that Michigan is getting commits from so many top players.

That date is a big OV weekend as I believe N. Stanley is coming that weekend as well.
There was a similar one a year ago where almost all of the committed players were in Iowa City the same weekend.
Disagree with you entirely other than I despise Michigan as well. MSU and their BS ways faking injuries, getting a player out of jail to a game etc, Douchetonio is just that a DOUCHE.
Always a cause for concern when a team like MSU comes in with a late offer on a hometown recruit. Like I said during some Noah Fant discussions, I believe that guys are going to a school when they sign on signing day.
Lattimore is from Detroit. That is no more "hometown" for MSU than the Quad Cities would be for ISU. If Michigan offers...
Talk is cheap! I will believe it when he signs on the dotted line!
I believe Karan Higdon was telling everyone the same thing. Think about it, would MSU make a offer if he was ignoring them ?
Not hometown, but east Lansing to Detroit is 90 miles, so more like quad cities for Iowa.
Moving in on our players is one thing, but taking our gin is an outrage.
Ann Arbor is significantly closer. That is the point. He probably grew up a Michigan fan. The distance between the two schools and Detroit is probably similar to Cedar Rapids for Iowa and ISU(I realize the milage is probably not exactly the same.) I don't think anybody would claim a kid from Cedar Rapids getting an offer from ISU is a "hometown" offer. I guess I should have went with CR instead QC.
Had he said home state offer, then there is no argument.
Point taken. And yes if Michigan offers that would be a hometown offer. Obviously, east lansing is much closer than Iowa City, so we will see if that makes a difference.
Just stop.
It's 45 minutes at 3 a.m. with no traffic if I throw the hammer down from downtown Detroit to Ann Arbor. So it's about an hour in normal traffic. Its 90 minutes no matter the time to East Lansing.
Detroit media only covers ann arbor in sports and rarely touches the news there.
