Former Super Bowl champion and MSU wide receiver Andre Rison may get the opportunity to see his son donning green and white because Hunter Rison picked up an offer from the Spartans on Thursday.
Andre Rison played at MSU from 1985 to 1988 before being drafted in the first round of the NFL Draft. He has said in the past that he doesn’t want to influence his son’s choice of school.
“We discuss things, and I’m not pushing him toward a school,” Andre Rison told MLive in February. “Of course, I’m a former Spartan and current Spartan alumni, but it’s on him.”
Hunter Rison visited the campus and left with his first offer as a sophomore. He’ll play his first season at Ann Arbor Skyline in the fall, where his father is currently the offensive coordinator after transferring from Basha High School in Chandler, Arizona.
Hunter Rison has also taken time to visit Ohio State, Tennessee and University of South Carolina, according to a report on NBC.com.
Hunter Rison isn’t the only college hopeful to receive a scholarship offer from the reigning Cotton Bowl champions, as three-star athlete Patrick Johnson II also collected his sixth Big Ten offer from the Spartans and 14th overall. He’s the 23rd ranked recruit from the state of Maryland according to 24/7 Sports.
