MSU football predicted to flip Alabama commit, 4-star S Elliot Washington following spring game visit

Could Michigan State flip a highly-touted Alabama commit? That appears to be in the works according to a pair of 247Sports recruiting insiders

It appears Michigan State football is going to do something pretty darn impressive in the recruiting world — flip a high-level recruit from his Alabama committment.

Four-star safety Elliot Washington was one of many highly-touted prospects to attend the Spartans’ spring game on Saturday, and is now projected by a pair of recruiting experts to decommit from Alabama and commit to Michigan State. Recruiting insiders Justin Thind and Corey Robinson of 247Sports both submitted crystal ball predictions in favor of Michigan State for Washington following Saturday’s event.

Washington is ranked as the No. 8 safety and No. 132 overall prospect in 247Sports’ composite rankings for the 2023 class. He holds scholarship offers from more than 25 programs, and has been committed to the Crimson Tide since late January.

Click on the tweet below to read more about Washington’s potential flip and another four-star prospect that the Spartans are looking good to land:
