NC corner hoping for another D-I offer
Back in June, Durham (N.C.) Hillside cornerback Tyree Bullock held an offer from Michigan State. In light of the coaching change with the Spartans in the past month, is the 5-foot-10, 160-pounder still on their radar?
"When the coaches changed they dropped my scholarship," he said. "Now I'm still waiting to see if any other big Division I schools will look at me. As of now, I'm mostly getting interest from I-AA schools.

"I did talk to Penn State and Michigan State again briefly in December. Michigan State is reviewing my film and Penn State even mentioned that they have two scholarships left. They told me they are looking for lineman, but if they elect to take another skill position player it would be me."
Marshall has also taken an interest in the two-star prospect recently.
"They contacted me in the last couple weeks," he said. "They told me that they liked my highlight tape and plan to stay in contact with me."
As for I-AA, Tennessee State, Western Carolina, Delaware State and a few others have been checking Bullock out.
"They all talk to me about how I'll have an opportunity to come right in and get playing time," he said. "I'm interested, but I want to see if I can get something bigger."
This season, Bullock registered 80 tackles and seven interceptions. He added six special teams touchdowns on his way to all-state kick returner.
