Jonathan Smith’s recruiting continues to be hotter than Michigan temperatures in June.
Michigan State football picked up its 16th commitment of the month Tuesday, June 24, with a pledge from Novi Detroit Catholic Central’s Samson Gash. The three-star wide receiver chose the Spartans over offers from West Virginia, Cincinnati, Alabama, Iowa, Illinois, Purdue and others.
Smith now has 20 players committed for his 2026 recruiting class. The early-signing period is in December.
Gash’s brother, Caleb, is a third-year sophomore defensive back for the Spartans.
