Throughout his entire recruitment, Michigan State fans referred to Jacub Panasiuk as “Mike’s little brother” and, at the time, it made sense.
Jacub had yet to play a single snap of college ball while his brother was a four-star freshman who had earned extensive playing time on a mediocre team looking for defensive line help. His future was incredibly bright, as evidenced by his performance at Nike’s The Opening the previous July.
But his brother was a three-star defensive end recruit without the same accolades and recruiting attention. How could Jacub possibly make a name for himself with his brother becoming one of the best defensive tackles in the Big Ten?
