A photograph and affidavit filed in federal court Tuesday purport to show former Michigan State recruiting coordinator Curtis Blackwell and then-head football coach Mark Dantonio in the home of a top recruit in 2015, evidence that contradicts Dantonio’s sworn testimony and is an apparent violation of NCAA rules.
In the filing, La Keshia Neal, mother of five-star recruit Daelin Hayes, alleged Dantonio, Blackwell and two other MSU coaches were in her home on or around Dec. 7, 2015. Days later, Hayes committed to Notre Dame.
