Things had been pretty quiet on the recruiting front for Michigan State before Thursday. That is when the Spartans picked up their first football commitment since August. Florida cornerback Ezra Robinson committed to Michigan State, and he is the 15th member of the 2012 recruiting class.
Robinson is rated as a three-star corner on Rivals, Scout and 24/7 Sports. (ESPN hasn't rated him yet.) He is the 51st ranked cornerback on Rivals and No. 103 on Scout. 24/7 Sports actually has him listed as a safety and ranks him 46th at that position.
In addition to Michigan State, the following schools have offered Robinson, according to Rivals: Boston College, Duke, Georgia Tech, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa State, Minnesota, North Carolina, NC State, Purdue, South Florida, Wake Forest and West Virginia, among others.
