Michigan State battles with Penn State on the field for the Land Grant Trophy, and on Saturday it was the Nittany Lions who beat out the Spartans in a key recruiting battle.
Four-star edge rusher Tyson Harley announced his commitment to Penn State on Saturday. The Nittany Lions beat out Michigan State, Maryland, Rutgers and Virginia Tech for the notable commitment from Harley.
Harley is a four-star prospect with a recruiting rating of 89.71 in 247Sports’ composite system. Harley ranks as the No. 33 edge rusher and No. 349 player in 247Sports’ composite rankings for the 2026 class. He is also ranked as the No. 2 player from Washington, D.C.
Harley would have been a massive get for the Spartans but there’s no shame in losing out on a high-end east coast prospect to Penn State. Still, this was a big recruiting battle with a program at a level that Michigan State is striving to reach, so they’ll eventually need to win this kind of recruiting battle to get to that level.
