Florida and Georgia have been two states Michigan State’s staff has been able to procure talent from over the last several years. The Spartans currently have seven players on their roster from those states, and judging from their recent stops and offers during the spring evaluation period, that is a number they’d like to see grow in the 2017 and 2018 classes.
The staff has extended a number of offers in the South, including one to class of 2017 defensive end Jeremiah Zio of Fort Lauderdale (Fla.) Farragut, a 6-foot-7, 230-pound prospect who is just starting to scratch the surface of his football potential.
