The Michigan State Spartans picked up another preferred walk-on for the 2022 class on Thursday, as offensive lineman Ben Nelson announced his commitment.
Nelson is rated as a two-star recruit by 247Sports, and is listed as the 159th interior offensive lineman in the 2022 class, and the 75th ranked player in Michigan. At 6-foot-7, he, like the many other preferred walk-ons to commit in the last few weeks, fits right into the height measurements that Mel Tucker has been filling the roster with. However, at 260 pounds, according to his Twitter bio, the Michigan State strength and conditioning program led by Jason Novak will likely be looking for Nelson to add some weight and muscle over the years.
