Michigan State basketball recruiting: 4-star big man Jesse McCulloch picks Spartans

Tom Izzo landed another top-200 prospect for Michigan State basketball’s next recruiting class.

The Spartans secured a commitment from four-star 2024 prospect Jesse McCulloch on Thursday afternoon. The 6-foot-9, 215-pound forward/center from Cleveland chose MSU over Alabama, Virginia Tech and Xavier.

"It feels like a real family over there," McCulloch said during his announcement on 247Sports.com's YouTube page. "I know every single coach, I know the players, I know the incoming freshmen. So it really just feels like home."

McCulloch is rated the 85th prospect by 247Sports and No. 173 in its composite rankings.
