Does Michigan State football's 2023 class signal new era for Spartans in recruiting?

With eight four-star recruits already verbally committed to the class of 2023, Michigan State football is well on its way to having its best recruiting cycle since 2016, and potentially dating even further with an ample amount of openings still available.

Five of the four stars have committed in June alone, and head coach Mel Tucker likely isn’t eager to stop anytime soon.

Tucker’s approach to recruiting is a change in philosophy when compared to how things have traditionally been run at MSU. Former head coach Mark Dantonio, who took over the Spartans in 2007 and retired in 2020, is the winningest coach in program history.
