The wait officially came to an end on Sunday afternoon as four-star athlete Jaden Mangham committed to Michigan State football.
Mel Tucker put in some serious work before the four-star in-state recruit’s decision, making up ground during Spartan Dawg Con a day before Mangham’s originally scheduled announcement. He was looking like a strong West Virginia lean but Tucker and his staff put in the work to sway him back to East Lansing.
