The <a href=\"http:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/michigan-state-football-quavaris-crouch-found-new-home\/\">Michigan State football<\/a> coach may have swung and missed on some Plan A guys over the past couple of classes, but he found a way to rebound quickly and flip some four-stars.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, he missed on a few top targets at quarterback only to turn around and flip four-star Katin Houser from Boise State. In the following class, 2023, Tucker lost Bo Edmundson and missed out on Dante Moore, and found a way to flip four-star Sam Leavitt from Washington State.<\/p>\n<p>While he can&#8217;t complain about the quarterbacks he came away with, he would probably like a little less drama when recruiting quarterbacks.<\/p>\n<p>So why not aim for the fences early on?<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday, Tucker offered five-star 2025 quarterback George MacIntyre, the nephew of current FIU head coach Mike MacIntyre and the grandson of the late Vanderbilt head coach George MacIntyre.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">I am blessed and honored to have received an offer from Michigan State! <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JayJohnsonFB?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@JayJohnsonFB<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/qzYyItYJcm\">pic.twitter.com\/qzYyItYJcm<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; George MacIntyre (@GeorgeMacIntyr6) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GeorgeMacIntyr6\/status\/1650910134703357954?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 25, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>With this offer, Michigan State has now offered the top two quarterbacks in the entire 2025 class.

Bryce Underwood from Belleville.<\/p>\n<p>Most fans are hoping the Spartans can somehow land Underwood and keep him home even though he&#8217;s the nation&#8217;s No. 1 quarterback and a top-five overall recruit, but Tucker isn&#8217;t going to focus on just one guy. That&#8217;s burned him in past classes.<\/p>\n<p>He had already developed a relationship with the nation&#8217;s No. 1 quarterback in 2025 in his own backyard, so why not offer the No. 2 passer from SEC country?<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;ll be an uphill battle for Tucker and Co. to land MacIntyre seeing as he already holds 32 offers as a sophomore recruit, but he&#8217;s swinging for the fences.<\/p>\n<p>A much-improved 2023 season will help the Spartans with both of the nation&#8217;s top two quarterbacks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mel Tucker is swinging for the fences.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2959,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[174],"tags":[328,59,327,229,191,189],"class_list":["post-2942","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-fb-recruiting","tag-bryce-underwood","tag-featured","tag-george-macintyre","tag-mel-tucker","tag-michigan-state-football","tag-michigan-state-spartans"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2942","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2942"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2942\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2959"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2942"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2942"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spartanshadows.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2942"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
