time for a thread title change or are we still waiting on some independent confirmation of the offer?

At first glance I thought his name was Anthony Carter - that would have been interesting.

Look for some updates on Crater in the near future....

[wadc45]

I wonder if his coach doesn't think Michigan State is his leader because Noopy works out with Mateen Cleaves and Charlie Bell?

They already have top 15 player in the country that is a pg in the 07 class. That could affect his decision.

Ohio State (offer), Duke, Georgia Tech, Illinois and Florida are at the top of his list. Marquette and Iowa have also offered. Staying in state is not a priority and he will go where he feels comfortable. Crater took an unofficial to tOSU this past Sunday/Monday. The environment at tOSU stands out to him at this point, he also visited Illinois.

Crater will also take unofficial visits to Duke and Florida and possibly to Illinois (2nd visit) and Louisville. Matta and staff put the full-court press on, showing Crater everything about tOSU. Crater was very impressed.

I like the fact that there is no mention of either Michigan team in the articles.

Could this be Matta's next big get or will he go out and snag another in the 07' class first....... Just stay tuned to As Matta's recruiting world turns.

I like the fact that there is no mention of either Michigan team in the articles.

Indications are that MSU and SCUM have major ground to make-up at this point.
