Another Recruiting Trail Loss
The Spartans lost out on three-star 2025 Ohio linebacker Grant Beerman on July 6th. He ended up choosing Big Ten-rival Purdue. It came down to the Boilermakers and Spartans, Beerman told me. The 6-foot-4, 220-pound linebacker has really good athleticism and could have been a versatile piece for defensive coordinator Joe Rossi.
Survival of the Fittest
The Spartans made the Top 11 for four-star 2026 running back KD Jones. The 17th-ranked running back in the 2026 class listed Michigan State with strong competition in Alabama, Texas A&M, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Oregon, and more. Jones had 2,205 all-purpose yards last season and 19 total touchdowns. Jones holds 22 offers, and it looks like half of those are out of the race now. The Spartans survived the 50 percent cut.
Looking Ahead
Per On3, the Spartans will be hosting four-star athlete David Davis at the end of July at SpartanDawg Con. Davis is the No. 19 athlete in the 2026 class and the 230th-ranked recruit overall. 2026 defensive back Camren Hamiel will also be at the event. Hamiel is the 51st cornerback in the class. Hamiel was offered in May.
