Michigan State football is making moves on the recruiting trail, and they've just locked in a major visit with a rising star from the offensive line. According to a report from Greg Smith of On3/Rivals, the Spartans have secured an official visit with four-star offensive tackle Corey Laga, a standout from Lemont, Illinois. Laga is set to arrive in East Lansing on June 5, giving the coaching staff a prime opportunity to showcase what MSU has to offer.
Standing at 6'5" and weighing 260 pounds, Laga is a formidable presence on the line and has the tools to become a cornerstone player at the next level. He currently holds an 89 rating in 247Sports' composite system, ranking as the No. 43 offensive tackle in the 2027 class. He's also the No. 17 player in Illinois and the No. 435 overall prospect nationally—impressive credentials that have caught the attention of programs across the country.
Laga's recruitment is heating up, with Vanderbilt also securing an official visit for June 12. Other programs like Wisconsin, Arkansas, Notre Dame, and Missouri remain "in the mix," according to Smith. Michigan State extended an offer to Laga in late January, and he now holds offers from 16 schools, including Illinois, Kansas, Iowa State, Kansas State, Nebraska, Oklahoma State, Northwestern, UCLA, Oregon State, and Washington State.
For Spartans fans, this visit is a promising sign that the program is competing for top-tier talent early in the 2027 cycle. Landing a player of Laga's caliber would be a major win for the offensive line room and a statement that MSU is building for the future. Stay tuned as this recruitment develops—June 5 could be a key date in shaping the Spartans' next great line.
