DAYTON, Ohio -- It was decision time for Adreian Payne, the Jefferson High School basketball star who had offers from coaches all over the country!

Payne said he is headed to Michigan State. "I felt very comfortable on campus when I went there to visit," said Payne during a live interview with ESPNU from our WHIO-TV studio.

Adreian already eliminated the hometown team a few weeks ago.

He is rated by most scouting services as one of the top 20 high school players in the country, and one of the top five centers in the U.S.

Payne played on the same championship AAU Team as Flyers recruit Juwan Staten the last few summers. He also had Kansas in his final five, but decided not to make a visit.

Payne said, " It was a tough decision. I would like to thank my coach, my family, the Jefferson Township Schools and the Jefferson Township community."

Payne also gave a special thank-you to his grandmother for supporting his decision to go to Michigan State.
