A rumor was going around Michigan State Twitter on Thursday night after a well-connected account tweeted that there would be a surprise commitment from a big West Coast recruit on Friday afternoon. There was chatter that it might either be a Jaden Hardy decision or maybe Kijani Wright. The latter would have an impact on the Spartans.

It was just a guess that it could have been Wright to Michigan State, but obviously, it was a long-shot to happen given that he just came out with a top seven and it’s not a given that he plans to reclassify to 2021.
