Watch Michigan State football safety Jaden Mangham talk about new coaching staff, spring practices

Jaden Mangham spoke to the media this week about the new coaching staff and spring practices

To me, one of the most interesting things to hear about out of Michigan State football’s spring practices is how the players who were already on the team are adjusting to the new coaching staff.

These are guys who are now playing for a staff that didn’t recruit them, and they didn’t sign up to play for, but they are still embracing the changes and trying to grow as players.

One of those players is Jaden Mangham, the Spartans’ safety who seems poised for a big year. The cameras caught up with Mangham this week after practice, and you can see that interview below:

2022 4-star ATH Jaden Mangham to visit MSU one day before planned commitment

2022 4-star ATH Jaden Mangham will reportedly visit Michigan State on the eve of his commitment – could this be a good sign for the Spartans?

[mm-video type=video id=01f3c17j9wh5xdpb0j6x playlist_id=01eqbz825g32p3akwt player_id=none image=https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/video/thumbnail/mmplus/01f3c17j9wh5xdpb0j6x/01f3c17j9wh5xdpb0j6x-94bc96c0600b72bfde06a5e50385bb0f.jpg]

One of the top prospects in the state for the 2022 class will be on Michigan State’s campus on the eve of his planned commitment.

Four-star athlete Jaden Mangham will reportedly visit Michigan State on July 31 — one day prior to when he’ll be announcing his college decision. Last week, Mangham announced he will make his commitment on Aug. 1

Mangham is listed as the No. 7 player in Michigan and No. 287 national prospect in 247Sports composite rankings. He’s also ranked as the No. 15 athlete in the class.

Mangham holds scholarship offers from 36 schools, but has recently made it known that only six schools are still in the running for his talents: Michigan State, Michigan, Illinois, Nebraska, West Virginia and Georgia Tech.

Mangham is currently projected to commit to West Virginia but it’s definitely interesting to see that he will take one final visit to East Lansing before committing. Could that final visit potentially sway him to end up in green-and-white? Only time will tell.
