If you have been paying attention to Michigan State Football’s recruiting efforts, you have probably notice that business has picked up considerably in the past few weeks. The Spartans now have ten recruits committed for their 2021 recruiting class, the first of Mel Tucker’s time with the team, and every player has at least been a 3-star. It looks like MSU might land the services of another 3-star recruit soon, as outside linebacker Tyler McLaurin has placed the Spartans in his final five for recruiting.

McLaurin’s final five are:

  • Michigan State
  • Michigan
  • Iowa State
  • Texas Tech
  • Nebraska

McLaurin is the No. 9 ranked player in Illinois per the 247sports composite rankings and their No. 26 ranked outside linebacker. And, in case you were wondering, he is 6-foot-2, which would make yet another player over 6-feet-tall in the class, something many fans have started to chuckle about as Tucker seems to be focused on bringing length and size into the fold.
