Another huge recruiting win for the Spartans this cycle, Michigan State took on in-state rival Michigan head-on in this recruitment and ultimately came out on top to secure the talents of 4-star ATH Dillon Tatum.
Tatum has now signed his national letter of intent to play his college football at Michigan State.

Player Profile
Position: Nickel
Height/Weight: 5’11″/190 pounds
Hometown: Farmington Hills, Michigan
High School: West Bloomfield High School
247Sports Composite ranking: 4-Star, No. 264 nationally
Analysis: Tatum is an interesting prospect, someone who excelled on both sides of the ball in high school and was originally recruited to play running back at MSU. The plans have switched, and Tatum will be lining up as a nickel back for MSU (a safety/cornerback hybrid). If there was a prospect that fit the mold to be a NB in the 4-2-5 scheme MSU runs, Tatum is that prospect.
