Michigan State football adds 2023 2-star LB Brayden Courser of Detroit Catholic Central as PWO commit

It’s always interesting to see which local high school football stars are given opportunities with Michigan State football as preferred walk-on commits.

On Monday night, the Spartans added one more PWO commit to their 2023 recruiting class in Novi’s Brayden Courser, the 6’1″, 230-pound linebacker from Detroit Catholic Central.

Courser is a 2-star linebacker, ranked as the No. 43 best player in Michigan for his class and the No. 214 ranked linebacker. He had offers from Eastern Kentucky, Ferris State, Findlay, Grand Valley State, and Valparaiso but chose to bet on himself with MSU instead.

Watch: Notre Dame Linebacker Commit Nolan Ziegler Makes Plays

Among the remaining participants in this Michigan high school football playoffs entering Saturday was Catholic Central.

Among the remaining participants in the Michigan high school football playoffs entering Saturday was Catholic Central. That team has Notre Dame linebacker commit Nolan Ziegler. During Saturday’s game against Davison, Ziegler showed why he’s heading to the next level:

Ziegler, a native of Grand Rapids, Michigan, committed to the Irish in August. He was recruited by Clark Lea and Jeff Quinn while also fielding offers from such schools as Iowa, Nebraska, Michigan, Virginia Tech and Boston College. He has another year of high school, and new Irish defensive coordinator Marcus Freeman will have had a year under his belt by the time Ziegler arrives in South Bend, so there will be some stability with the defensive scheme at that point. In the meantime, he can continue to develop into a more complete player.
