One of the top priority defensive lineman prospect for the Spartans in the 2027 class has been bumped up to a four-star status.
Marvin Nguetsop of Oakdale, Conn. received a recruiting rating bump on Wednesday when 247Sports released updated ratings and rankings. Nguetsop moved up from a three-star prospect to a four-star prospect, and now holds a recruiting rating of 90 in 247Sports’ system.
Nguetsop also saw his rankings move up within the 2027 class. He ranks as the No. 221 overall prospect and No. 25 defensive lineman in the class. He remained as the No. 2 player from Connecticut in the class as well.
Michigan State is one of nearly 25 schools to extend Nguetsop an offer, according to 247Sports. He also holds notable offers from Ole Miss, Georgia, Texas, Florida, Florida State, Kentucky, Michigan, Nebraska, Penn State, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas A&M, UCLA and Virginia Tech.
At the moment, Michigan State is one of the teams near the top of the mix for Nguetsop. He is currently scheduled to take an official visit to Michigan State in late May, and he only has one other official visit lined up at this time to Ole Miss in June. I’m sure that will change with Georgia and Texas also considered to strongly be in the mix, but it’s clear Michigan State has identified a special talent and hopefully they can find a way to close on this big-time prospect.
