Michigan State football lands commitment from safety Malcolm Jones

On the eve of signing day Michigan State has earned the commitment of Georgia DB Malcolm Jones

Michigan State fans were given a signing day eve gift as Malcolm Jones has made his decision to commit to Michigan State public. Jones is a native of Leesburg, Georgia, and plays for Georgia football powerhouse Lee County High School.

Jones was a longtime commit to Virginia Tech, and was 110% locked into the Hokies, growing a strong relationship with then head coach Justin Fuente. After Fuente’s firing, it opened the door for Michigan State to come in and steal Jones’s commitment.

Jones is a 3-star that was given a very nice 88 rating by 247Sports. A nice addition to the Michigan State secondary.
