MSU target, 3-star WR Xavier Stinson commits to UCLA following official visit
A Michigan State football targeted wide receiver prospect is heading to another Big Ten school.
Xavier Stinson of Vero Beach, Fla. announced his commitment to UCLA on Monday. Stinson made his commitment known via a post on his social media X account.
Stinson is a three-star prospect with a recruiting rating of 87 on 247Sports. He ranks as the No. 118 wide receiver prospect in 247Sports' rankings for the 2026 class.
Stinson was scheduled to visit Michigan State this upcoming weekend. His commitment to the Bruins comes after he took an official visit to UCLA this past weekend. He was also strongly considering NC State, and held notable offers from Indiana, Arkansas, Memphis, Pitt, UCF, Vanderbilt and West Virginia.
Michigan State is trending in the right direction for another three-star wide receiver prospect in Zachary Washington. So this commitment from Stinson could be related to that move or a number of the other wide receiver prospects Michigan State is currently pursuing. It also could simply be the Bruins beating out the Spartans for this prospect.

Former MSU QB calls out Big Ten rankings that snubbed Aidan Chiles
Former MSU QB calls out Big Ten rankings that snubbed Aidan Chiles Popular college football analyst for CBS Sports Josh Pate released his top 10 quarterbacks of the Big Ten, and a former Spartans signal caller had an issue with the list. Pate's top 10 quarterbacks list for the upcoming season left off Michigan State's Aidan Chiles -- which initially grabbed my attention as surprising to see. It also was alarming to former Michigan State starting quarterback Brian Lewerke -- who took to social media platform X to call out Pate. Lewerke called out Pate's list as "not very good" and noted that his feedback wasn't just because of Chiles being snubbed. You can see Lewerke's response and Pate's top 10 list in the post below: As I said above, I also was not a fan of this rankings from Pate. In my opinion, Chiles ranks as at top 10 quarterback in the league, with the potential to be a top five quarterback should he approach his ceiling. Last year, Chiles showed inconsistency but as a first year starter that was expected from him. Ironically, Nebraska's Dylan Raiola had comparable numbers to Chiles and he was ranked as the No. 6 quarterback in Pate's list while Chiles was left off. These type of lists are not ultimately a big deal and just used for fun offseason discussion. But I enjoyed seeing a former Spartans quarterback looking out for the current guy wearing green-and-white under center.

Michigan State football lands commitment from 3-star wide receiver
Michigan State has continued their red hot recruiting month of June, landing another commitment, and winning another big time recruiting battle. Zachary Washington has been a top target on the 2026 recruiting board with WR coach Courtney Hawkins having put maximum effort in the Wheaton (IL) product. Now, the Spartans have earned the commitment of the top wide receiver target. Advertisement The commitment comes as a massive win for MSU, who came from behind to defeat Wisconsin, after the Badgers had a major lead in the recruitment. The win marks the 16th commitment the Spartans have obtained in the 2026 recruiting class. Washington is a 6-foot-2, 185 pound receiver that is a 3-star product playing his high school football at St. Francis. He is the former high school teammate of current MSU quarterback Alessio Milivojevic. Having taken official visits to MSU, Wisconsin and West Virginia, those ended up being the three leaders in his recruitment, with the Spartans coming out on top. Being the 16th commitment in the class, Washington joins Kayd Coffman, Braylon Hodge, Cory House, Eddie Whiting, KJ Deriso, Brayden Thomas, Joey Caudill, Eliyjah Caldwell-Hardy, Christopher Knauls, Eli Bickel, Collin Campbell, Quinn Buckey, TJ Umenyiora, Jordan Vann and Fameitau Siale, who are all a part of the Spartans class.
