The Blackhawk Christian graduate, who is rehabilitating a broken foot, said that when he committed to Michigan State two years ago, his top five college choices were MSU, Michigan, Indiana, Ohio State and Kentucky. That doesn’t necessarily mean anything for now.
“I don’t know how many of those schools that I’d consider,” Byrd said. “We’ll just see who calls.”'[/QUOTE]
