The Player Draft was held Wednesday (Earth Day)...It showed a little about what the players think about each of the positions as the Seniors divided up the roster.

SpartyMSU Thoughts on the Spring Game Player Draft:
1) QBs were picked very late: both must be good and comparable.
2) Injuries / Inactive: what does this mean for the season?  Clark-Davis? Cironi? Need to look into this more...
3) Greg Jones first player pick this year...and last.
4) Rumor: Hoover is hurt?
5)  White's Backs: Jimmerson, Leggett, and Hawkin
6) Greens' QB  Kirk C. paired with Mark Dell, Rucker, Smith and the Blair White Project.
7) "D": Both look strong, White's LB look a bit stronger with Gordon, Decker, and their secondary is filled with Adams, Fortener, Johnson.

Either way it'll be a great game...
This is only a prelude to September...with most questions answered by late August during the Fall Camp.

A forecasted Summer like blue sky day...and the Spartans on the field...doesn't get much better!
