Rumor on BDJ that James Hurst is a MSU lean currently.

He's a 2010 prospect, but he'll be a December graduate. Also, he has offers from all over the country and we'll have to beat out Notre Dame for him. His father wants him at MSU. We need as many OL's as possible.

I know that's not always the case

how our OL redshirts are from this past year? I am clinging to the hope that some of them have panned out and will be "decent" next year. Either way, I think with the new offense they will only need to get in the way of some defenders for a sec before we have the ball going somewhere else. If the first play of the spring game is "3 yards and a cloud of dust", I will probably go insane.

Feel they will be the ones to beat out. Older brother had no other offers.

I watched a scout.com video interview with Hurst and he said that Bama isn't recruiting him at all.

Also, Nelson had offers from Illinois, UCLA, Purdue and Mississippi State. Not exactly NO offers.

If James is indeed one of the best rated OL in the country can't see Bama not getting on him and his dad Tim was at the same time as Croom maybe why we swayed him over the others as you mentioned.
