Well that makes a little bit more sense, unfortunately.
Earlier today, long-time Michigan State commitment Donovan Winter didn’t take part in his Florida high school’s National Signing Day ceremony. The recruit’s head coach stated that his player wouldn’t be signing with anyone Wednesday, adding it is a “long story.”
The short version of the story, though, is that the three-star prospect is currently sitting in jail following a Monday night arrest on burglary and larceny of a firearm charges. Other than “Donovan was being held on $2,000 bond and also awaiting a GPS device to be placed on him prior to his release,” the Orlando Sentinel wrote, no details of what led to the arrest and charges.
As Winter is unsigned, MSU, or any other team for that matter, is not permitted to address his situation and what impact it could have on what if any future he has with the Spartans.
The defensive end also has been offered scholarships by Kentucky, Michigan, Pittsburgh and Tennessee among others.
