Plan A,  and priority recruit, Ru’Quan Buckley has released his top 5 schools and the Spartans made the cut.

Michigan State was included with Cincinnati, Nebraska, Florida State and Minnesota. Buckley has been recruited to play on both the offensive and defensive line at various schools. It has been reported that Coach Chris Kapilovic is his main recruiter, meaning the need for Buckley on the offensive line in East Lansing.

Buckley is a native of Grand Rapids, Michigan, and attends high school at Godwin Heights in Wyoming, Michigan. Buckley is a highly regarded 3-star prospect, excelling on both sides of the ball. Standing at 6-foot-6 and 280 pounds, Buckley is a force in the trenches.

It is believed to be a two-team race for Buckley’s commitment, with Nebraska being the current clubhouse leader. The Spartans, who are presumed to be the second-place team in the race as of now, are nipping at the heals of Nebraska. Mel Tucker and his staff will continue to make a strong push as this recruitment wraps up.

Buckley has announced that he will make his decision on December 5th.
