Michigan State head coach Jonathan Smith has made it known that the late signing period was going to be used by Michigan State to aid their 2024 recruiting class, and they are doing just that.
There is one position group that the staff is really focused on, and that is the defensive line, pursuing multiple prospects on the defensive front.
Along with the defensive line, the Spartans picked up commitments from kicker Martin Connington and wide receiver Jaylan Brown, who are expected to sign without hiccups.
Now, all the attention turns to four prospects as the official end of the 2024 recruiting cycle nears:
LB Jadyn Walker (Michigan State commit)
Jadyn Walker has been committed since September, but elected not to sign, as USC has been pushing hard for the in state linebacker’s commitment. It is still a 50/50 as of now, if Walker will be a Spartan or a Trojan.
DT Dimitry Nicolas (Auburn commit)
Auburn commit Dimitry Nicolas elected not to sign with the Tigers and it may be a blessing for MSU. The Spartans hosted Nicolas on a visit this past weekend, and things seem to be trending well for Nicolas and MSU.
DT Mikeshun Beeler
Chicago defensive tackle Mikeshun Beeler is another defensive tackle prospect the Spartans hosted and could be a very nice add this late in the cycle. Indiana is also pursuing here, but the Spartans are positioned in a very good spot.
DE Keona Wilhite
Wilhite was once signed with Washington, but after the coaching change in Seattle, the defensive end prospect reopened his recruitment. That gave the Spartans the opportunity to pounce, and MSU has done a good job doing that. MSU is firmly in the mix alongside Nebraska and UCLA as a decision looms.
