Korey Banks Jr

Some of you big inside guys should get the ball rolling with Korey Banks Jr. He's a 2016 corner in Sandy Creek Ga. if the name sounds familiar it's because it's MSU' Korey Banks son. He's being listed as a 4 star 6'0 175. He's run a 4.3 at every camp and is picking up big offers. He's already been offered by Michigan, Arizona, Wisconsin, and a few others. When I watch him play I see Will Redmond all over again. He's an extremely gifted player with great instincts, cover, and ball skills. MSU needs to move quickly before the other SEC schools get involved.

please don't tell me we have not offered. please.

I hope we get him in the fold, but considering the general climate around our football program during the two years his dad played here, I wouldn't be surprised if MSU is about the last place the kid wants to go. Dad may not have given a glowing review of his time here.

Doesn't look like we have.

I wish we would offer but it doesn't look likely. Keshon Heard seems to be the next DB commit & the last spot will be held for Nigel Knott.

Actually, his dad wants the staff to offer him. He wants him here. Kid is a player. State track champion.

How are our chances with knot?

You make room for speed and a player like that

If he stays instate he's our but going out of state is a real possibility.

I agree but Heard & Knott have elite speed & are instate. Our other 2 DB commits are a juco (Durr) & CJ Morgan-Walker who has just as good or better offer sheet as Banks & is very good too. It may just end up being a #'s game with him. I hate it bc he is really good.

Exactly, coach. You make room for the **** son of a legacy.

Banks Jr has legit NFL talent. His dad is perplexed that we haven't offered yet. However, our window is closing.

Tell ya what. He deserves an offer and some love if for no other reason than his pops did this......

Korea Banks played for MSU after I graduated college. And he has a son about to graduate high school? I don't have kids in Kindergarten yet!

We didn't this year for Stephen Johnson's son. Kid ran a 4.2, but we didn't offer. Unfortunately, he chose not to come to camp, and that hurt him. But, I know his father, a former MSU DB, and he had his kid fired up about coming to MSU, "gift-wrapped", I think was the term he used. Dad was very upset we didn't offer.

I'll never understand why we do things like that unless there is just something there that we as fans don't see and the staff does. I trust Dan at this point in his career in here. But I do wish we treated our former players better.

This has nothing to do with his dad. He's neutral and has said nothing negative to his son about State.

Heavesy hasn't even spoken with the kid. I don't even think they know he exists.

I'm not doubting your story in general, but there is no way in hell the kid ran a legit 4.2. Just sayin'
