Michigan State football’s 2024 recruiting class continues to grow in the same way Mel Tucker’s previous group did.
The Spartans landed a pledge from Tennessee cornerback Jaylen Thompson on Tuesday, their third for the next cycle. Thompson joins River Rouge wide receiver Nick Marsh and Florida cornerback Jamari Howard as four-star players to commit to Tucker after MSU landed eight four-star high school prospects last Wednesday during the early signing period for the 2023 class.
Thompson is rated the No. 258 player overall nationally and the 23rd-best cornerback according to 247Sports.com's composite rankings and chose the Spartans over offers from Michigan, Nebraska and a number of Southeastern Conference schools including Georgia, Auburn and Tennessee.
