Michigan State football is having its best week yet with its 2022 recruiting class.
Just a few days after the Spartans secured a commitment from four-star wide receiver Antonio Gates Jr. out of Dearborn Fordson, Mel Tucker and his coaching staff landed another four-star commitment Friday.
Alex VanSumeren, a defensive tackle out of Essexville Garber, announced his verbal commitment to MSU on social media Friday. In the video, high school highlights are mixed in with individual workout clips, and at the end, VanSumeren flashes his MSU gloves to the camera.
VanSumeren chose the Spartans over offers from a number of big-name schools, including Alabama, Clemson, Texas A&M, Michigan, Penn State, Wisconsin and West Virginia.
