Hopefully he can do what he did for Quinyon Mitchell. Also maybe recruit Detroit*

So our pitch is our DB coaches turned Witherspoon and Mitchell into first round picks.

I'm not sure it's possible to overstate how big this is. Dude was a 5-star recruit and we just beat

I assume Witherspoon going #5 has something to do with it but maybe that’s naive *

To add context, if he had committed to illinois originally he would have been our 8th highest rated
