The 6-foot-1, 185 pound athlete out of Madison (Ga.) Morgan County had visited East Lansing a few times, he liked the feel of the atmosphere and he committed to the Spartans midway through his junior year.
He felt good about his decision the first few months, but late in the spring, he was doing a lot of thinking as schools continued to stop by during the evaluation period to recruit him. He thought long and hard about it, but Huff decided to re-open his recruitment.
"It was hard very hard," said Huff. "It was not easy, but I called coach Mark Dantonio and let him know I was decommitting Thursday. To let him know of my decision was very tough. It was not an easy call to make."
His last two visits have been to Tennessee. Huff knew Kevin Sherrer from his time at Georgia, so the two were in contact and then Huff went to camp June 12. He earned an offer that day.
Seven days later, he was back in Knoxville.
"As soon as me and coach Sherrer started our contact, we have been talking a lot since. When I got there the first time and saw everything Tennessee was about, I knew I liked it.
"I will be going back for their bar-b-que July 28, so I am looking forward to that. I like the coaches and environment there."
Huff is now an open recruit not tied to a school, but he does not plan to keep it that way for long. He has been through this process once and he does not want to stay uncommitted for a long period of time.
"This recruiting process is rough," said Huff. "I just don't want to go through it for too long. I want to make a decision. I am not when, but likely early in the season.
"I am really open and I am not going to rush it, but I know I like the three schools I have visited this summer and I may visit North Carolina too, so I am not going to wait too long."
I have it from a friend that they are recruiting ability... so it goes like this. Things the look for:Honestly at this point I think theyre recruiting football players with the intention of finding their best spots once they get them here. Crouch can play both sides, same with Beasley. Hill could play corner or safety. Lampley could play tackle or guard. Its an interesting strategy. I like it.
