Michigan State Football Eyes Class of 2026 and 2027 Brothers Samson and Gideon Gash To Recruit
Michigan State Football Eyes Class of 2026 and 2027 Brothers Samson and Gideon Gash To Recruit originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Michigan State football has rallied together an ever-growing group of class of 2026 recruits. Now with coaches being legally allowed to contact student-athletes from the class of 2027, head coach Jonathan Smith hasn't stepped off the gas. Advertisement Two brothers in particular, from the class of 2026 and class of 2027, have been on Smith's radar. Michigan State head coach Jonathan King/Lansing State Journal/USA TODAY NETWORK Samson Gash, a three-star wide receiver out of Novi, Mich., is one of the Spartans' top remaining targets from the class of 2026. He's the No. 908 overall recruit, No. 141 overall wide receiver, and No. 14 pick out of Michigan. Samson is also the highest-rated wide receiver from his state. His decision will be announced very soon as he told Justin Thind, "We should see a decision in the next day or so." Michigan State is one of three schools likely to land the wide receiver. Cincinnati and West Virginia are the other two colleges Samson scheduled visits with. His final official visit set is with the Bearcats on June 20, but he praised the Spartans after his June 13 visit. As he nears a decision, it's possible that Samson cancels his final visit, especially given home-state ties. Advertisement Smith isn't stopping with the eldest Gash brother. Class of 2027 recruit and younger brother Gideon Gash is a four-star cornerback. He's currently ranked No. 327 overall, No. 35 among cornerbacks, and No. 8 out of Michigan. Including Michigan State, Gideon has received 11 offers and announced his Spartans offer on X. While Michigan State is the sixth Big 10 offer Gideon received so far, things may be looking up for the Spartans if his older brother decides on East Lansing. As for Samson's decision, there is currently only one wide receiver on Smith's commitment list so far. So aside from the home-state advantage for Michigan State, there's room to complete a potential three-star duo with Samson and recent commit Zachary Washington.
