Okay then!

This is a very high 4*; number 162 overall recruit:    https://247sports.com/player/messiah-mickens-46133503/

And that post almost looks like a commitment, not an visit or interest.

 

I saw something about him scheduling a visit, not about a commitment.

If Mickens wants a clear path to seeing the field as a freshman, and unlike most other positions that's something that top rated running backs can handle, then IU is a strong choice.

Like many here I have mixed feelings on ESPN's football recruitment analysis, but a piece recentl y came out, https://www.espn.com/college-football/recruiting/story/_/id/46758805/college-football-recruiting-rankings-update-coaching-change, that mentioned Indiana as a player for a handful of PSU flips - including Mickens Keys, and Sieg - as well as the OT from Wisconsin that is currently committed to WSU.  

Interesting note from the article, Mickens is a fallback for the OSU if they can't flip a 4* RB currently committed to Wisconsin.

I don’t think I’d want to be a “fallback” for anyone !

Yep, like Cig said, "I've never taken a back seat to anybody and don't plan on starting now."
