@EvanDaniels: Josh Langford has committed to Michigan State, his father tells Scout. Five-star wing in the 2016 class.

Good pickup for MSU. Was really between MSU and UK for this recruitment. Good player.

Hope this means good news for UK with Bridges.

Matt Jones just said that he is shocked, and considered him a UK lock. Nobody can deny any longer that something has changed.

It shouldn't make a difference. Bridges is more of a 3/4 and Langford is a 2. Plus, MSU has two more open spots. I would be mildly surprised if Bridges wasn't a Spartan in the end. But as we've seen this year, recruiting is a weird, unpredictable game.

While the spring of the 2015 class is wild, I'll wait and see what happens with 2016 kids. If we can't get many of them, then yes we are facing some recruiting adversity. I'm sure Cal would take any 5 star top 20 player and not wait for others to commit, so this kid definitely wanted to be at MSU.

There are a billion wings in 2016 and none of them will play college basketball for 16 months.

It's June and Matt needs radio filler. I just wish he'd do it without riling up the locals.

Langford's family was along on the extended visit he had, which just ended yesterday.
Along with Nick Ward, that now leaves MSU with two spots for 2016.
It's no secret those two spots are earmarked for Bridges and Cassius Winson( coveted Detroit point guard Izzo wants badly)
Those four would make an outstanding class.
