MSU is set to host a 2025 DB from North Carolina on an official visit this weekend

Michigan State football will be hosting a big time visitor this upcoming weekend, where the Spartans will face Purdue.

Cairo Skanes, a Miami (OH) commit, will be in East Lansing this coming weekend on an official visit. Skanes is a native of Charlotte (NC) and attends the Providence Day School. He is a 6-foot, 160 pound defensive back. He is ranked as a 3-star on On3 sports.

Skanes has broken out it recent weeks, having an outstanding Fall season, receiving five offers from power conference schools. Aside from MSU, Duke, NC State, Virginia and Wisconsin have all thrown their names in the race.

Wisconsin hosted the defensive back on an official visit on Nov. 9, and seem to be in the thick of a race that the Spartans want to win.

Skanes was listed as a prospect to look out for on the defensive side of the ball for MSU.

Wisconsin offers class of 2025 Miami (OH) cornerback commit

Wisconsin offers class of 2025 Miami (Ohio) cornerback commit

Wisconsin football extended an offer to class of 2025 cornerback Cairo Skanes on Wednesday.

The 6-foot, 155-pound cornerback committed to Miami (Ohio) back in June. Nonetheless, Skanes boasts over 20 offers from programs including Charlotte, Princeton, Troy, Richmond, James Madison and Michigan State.

Despite being unranked by both Rivals and 247Sports. On3 lists Skanes as the No. 152 cornerback and No. 51 recruit from North Carolina for the class of 2025. While his commitment to Miami (OH) still holds true, On3’s recruiting prediction machine awards Miami just a 5.5% chance to retain the playmaker.

Every other program holds under a 10% likelihood of securing a commitment from the cornerback, per On3.

Wisconsin has secured 22 commitments for its class of 2025. As of Oct. 16, Luke Emmerich, Grant Dean, Jaimier Scott and Remington Moss comprise UW’s current cornerback group.

Through seven games of his senior slate, Skanes has accumulated 51 total tackles and two tackles for loss for Providence Day School in Asheville, North Carolina.
