Michigan State football has extended a scholarship offer to one of the top running back prospects in the 2024 class.

Jeremy Payne announced on Monday that he’s received a scholarship offer from the Spartans. Payne hails from Missouri City, Texas, and plays for Hightower High.

Payne is listed as a four-star prospect by 247Sports, and ranks as the No. 12 running back in the class. He’s also listed as the No. 240 overall prospect in the class by the recruiting service.

Michigan State is the 13th school to extend an offer to Payne, according to 247Sports. The previous schools to offer Payne include Baylor, Houston, Indiana, Oklahoma, Oregon State, SMU, TCU, Texas A&M, UTSA, Grambling State, Incarnate Word and Texas Southern.

Oklahoma Sooners offer 2024 4-star RB Jeremy Payne

Last week, the Oklahoma Sooners extended an offer to 2024 four-star running back Jeremy Payne out of Missouri City, Texas.

[autotag]DeMarco Murray[/autotag] continues to work his magic on the recruiting trail as the Oklahoma Sooners last week extended an offer to four-star RB Jeremy Payne out of Texas.

Payne is a popular guy. The 2024 running back has received offers from Big 12 programs Baylor and TCU among a host of other schools. Payne has 10 offers so far.

He’s a top 40 player in the state of Texas and currently sits just outside the top ten running backs, per 247 Sports.

He won’t be coming out of high school for another two seasons, so his ranking could very well improve before we see a commitment happen. Expect him to put a bit more weight on his 170 lb frame as well.

We know that DeMarco Murray is the running back whisperer, and he will help OU’s case to land Payne.

Something to keep in mind: Oklahoma currently only has three scholarship running backs on the roster and Gavin Sawchuk on the way. They don’t have a running back committed to the 2023 or 2024 recruiting classes yet, but are in great standing with several of the top runners, like Tre Wisner. Other schools that have offered Payne have more crowded RB rooms, except for TCU which also has only three running backs on the roster.

He’s yet to visit Oklahoma according to 247Sports, but he has been on an unofficial visit to Texas A&M. College Station just happens to be less than two hours from Missouri City, Texas, Payne’s hometown.
