EAST LANSING – Mel Tucker’s Michigan State football recruiting classes continues to grow as the hours tick down to the opening of the early signing period.
The Spartans landed a pledge from three-star wide receiver Jaelen Smith from Houston late Tuesday night, bumping their class of high school commitments to 14 after a busy week of recruiting.
MSU added two transfers earlier Tuesday, defensive tackle Jarrett Jackson from Florida State and linebacker Aaron Alexander from Massachusetts. Smith became the fifth prep prospect to commit to Tucker’s program in the past week.
The 6-foot-1, 185-pound Smith picked the Spartans over finalists Minnesota and Vanderbilt and from a number of Ivy League offers.
