With the early signing period beginning on Wednesday, Mel Tucker and the Michigan State staff remained busy in the transfer portal.
The Spartans landed a pair of commitments on Tuesday, first from former Belleville linebacker Aaron Alexander, who played three games last fall at UMass. On Tuesday evening, Florida State defensive tackle Jarrett Jackson announced he had committed to Michigan State.
Alexander, who Tweeted “I’m coming home,” is a one-time Michigan commit. At 6-foot-1, 205 pounds, Alexander was a three-star prospect at Belleville and the 26th ranked player in the state.
Jackson (6-6, 300) is a graduate transfer who spent two years at Louisville before spending the last three at Florida State.
