Justin Layne: Ohio State went about things the wrong way
Michigan State four-star receiver commit Justin Layne explained why he didn’t commit to Michigan, Ohio State.
Justin Layne surprised just about everyone when he pulled the trigger and committed to Michigan State in April during his visit for the spring-game. The Green-White scrimmage weekend happened to start a domino effect on the recruiting trail as Messiah deWeaver, Abdul Adams, Joe Bachie and Layne all committed that weekend.
Why was Layne’s commitment to the green and white so surprising? He is from Ohio and just about everyone believed he would stay close to home and commit to the Ohio State Buckeyes. The four-star wide out had other ideas.
