Se'Von Pittman, DE, Canton McKinley - VERBAL TO O$U

LOL...wow can you imagine the meltdown from Valenti and RCMB if Washington ends up in the SEC so we re-offer Pittman and he decommits from MSU and goes Blue? WOW

Serious question...are you just joking, or do you honestly think his whole thought process still revolves around UM?

[Cheech]

I think its back to OSU or Sparty

Edit: i mean it is all Sparty, but if he were to switch down the rd, it would be because OSU won him back

[FastFreddie]

Sounds like T rich and Pittman have a lot in common.

Shhh...don't tell Coach D but Pittman was at the OSU game and had face to face with Gordon Gee...

Relax son..

“I just went down to see (former McKinley teammate and OSU freshman defensive lineman) Steve Miller,” Pittman said. “It went good. He got to play a little. I talked to him – he’s doing great.”
Pittman said he is not sure if the Buckeyes are still recruiting him or not, but even if they are he is not having second thoughts regarding his college choice.
“I’m not thinking about Ohio State,” he said. “I’m still committed to Michigan State.”
When asked if he is 100-percent a Spartan, Pittman said: “Yes.”
In fact, Pittman said he will likely be making his official visit to Michigan State next month.
“I plan on doing it when they play Michigan (Oct. 15),” Pittman said. “Jermaine (Edmondson) will probably do it at the same time.”
Edmondson, who committed to the Spartans in late July, and Pittman have helped McKinley go 4-1 during the first half of the season.
The 6-foot-5 and 235-pound Pittman is a 4-star prospect in the 24/7 ratings.
Kurelic’s Comment: When rumors circulated Pittman visited Ohio State on Saturday it caused some consternation among MSU fans. But Spartan Nation can rest easy when it comes to their star recruit.

oh well in that case...anyone who wants to visit an ex -teammate can go on the sidelines?!?!

[FastFreddie]

I thought Dantonio doesn't allow committed recruits to take visits?

Wow, you must really want this to happen.

Sam Webb: Canton (Ohio) McKinley defensive end Se'Von Pittman is Michigan State's top commitment, but last weekend he visited Ohio State. Is there any reason for Spartan fans to be concerned?

Dave Berk: I think kids in today's recruiting world still sometimes wonder, "Did I make the right choice?" Right now, I think Se'Von is saying all the right things by saying he is still a Spartan and that he is still 100 percent on board with Michigan State. But at the same time, he has got a former high school teammate, Steve Miller, who is at Ohio State and I'm sure that is in his ear. But I know that he gave a commitment to Mark Dantonio and Mark Dantonio is not one to push kids into a commitment. Right now I think he ends up at Michigan State. There are still a lot of questions going on at Ohio State. There is uncertainty as far as what the future holds with their coaches and with the NCAA. Right now, I would say he will be a Spartan.

Allen Trieu: Any time one of your commits visits another school I think there is reason for concern. That said, he came out and said he was still committed to Michigan State and he was just there checking out his teammate from last year, Steve Miller, who is a freshman at Ohio State now, which makes sense. I think you've got to keep an eye on, but it is nothing to lose sleep over right now.
