Michigan State listed in top 5 for Detroit 2023 4-star DL Jalen Thompson

The Spartans are still in the hunt for one of the top players from Michigan in the 2023 class

The Spartans are still in the hunt for one of the top players from Michigan in the 2023 class.

Four-star defensive lineman Jalen Thompson announced his top five schools list on Saturday, and Michigan State made the cut. The Spartans were joined by Ohio State, Pitt, Cincinnati and Penn State.

Thompson ranks as the No. 2 player from Michigan in the 2023 class. He’s listed as the No. 202 overall prospect and No. 30 defensive lineman in 247Sports’ composite rankings for the 2023 class.

Michigan State is considered the favorite to land Thompson based on 247Sports’ crystal ball predictions. However, those predictions weren’t entered recently so things could have changed since then so we’ll have to wait and see how things play out for Thompson.
