It's safe to say IMG Academy (Florida) star David Stone, the nation's No. 1 defensive lineman, would win just about any Halloween costume competition in East Lansing.

On Saturday, the 6-foot-4, 270-pound defensive lineman tweeted that he was going as a "D1 commit for Halloween,' wearing Michigan State gear:

While Stone clearly indicated it was a costume, the nation's No. 13 prospect in the class of 2024 has previously spoken quite highly of Michigan State.

In late September, the dynamic defender said Oklahoma and Michigan State were in the early lead for his services.

Then, two weeks ago, Stone tweeted that he was "home" while on a visit to Michigan State. 

There's still a long way to go before Stone can make anything official.

So, while his costume may not be the treat Michigan State fans are hoping for quite yet, it's also no trick.

Stone's interest is very real.
