East Lansing — When it comes to a football recruit being listed as an athlete, it often means the player could play any number of positions. It’s just a matter of finding the right spot.
That journey can be a quick one or one that takes a year or two — or longer. Take former Michigan State running back Jeremy Langford, who was listed as an athlete coming out of Westland John Glenn. He went from running back, to defensive back — where he scored his first touchdown — to wide receiver back to running back.
