The Michigan State Spartans have a former blue-chip safety in Dillon Tatum, a West Bloomfield standout. The Michigan Wolverines have one, too, and they both helped win a state championship.
Often, the Michigan State Spartans are competing with in-state rival Michigan for the best talent in the state. Head coach Jonathan Smith has made it his goal to put the Green and White back on top in the mitten along with re-establishing a solid Midwest pipeline as a whole.
Tatum was an integral part of West Bloomfield's first-ever state championship win in January of 2021. The Lakers faced reigning Division I state champion Davison and thrashed the defending champions 41-0. Edwards, from the class of 2021, was the No. 4 running back in the class and the No. 42 ranked player nationally. Before Edwards was breaking big-time runs for the Wolverines in big time games, he was the most important piece to a state championship. 247Sports recruiting expert Allen Trieu praised the ball carrier in his evaluation.
