Michigan State football adds 1 signee, 2 walk-ons, misses 2 targets

National signing day provided few surprises for Mark Dantonio.

It also did not bring two of the players Michigan State coveted most this February.

The Spartans added three players to its recruiting class Wednesday morning, getting an expected letter of intent from 3-star receiver Jalen Nailor (Las Vegas Bishop Gorman). MSU also added athlete David Kruse from Belding (Lowell High) and offensive lineman Dan VanOpstall from Jenison, both of whom are preferred walk-ons.

Two players who were high-priority late targets turned down the Spartans. 4-star receiver Tommy Bush from Texas picked national runner-up Georgia, and 3-star defensive end Habakkuk Baldonado from Florida chose Pat Narduzzi’s Pitt Panthers.
