Bulldogs get massive in-state tackle

Mississippi State added another member to its 2016 recruiting class in massive three-star offensive tackle Greg Eiland.

The 6-foot-7, 330-pounder from Philadelphia chose the Bulldogs over offers from Jacksonville State, Louisiana Tech, Louisiana-Lafayette, Memphis, Ole Miss, San Diego State, Southern Miss and Texas.

Eiland is the 16th member of MSU’s class and ninth from an in-state program. He is also the fourth offensive lineman to commit in the class.

Eiland is rated the 20th best prospect in Mississippi and the No. 42 offensive tackle in the country by 247Sports.
