Jase Richardson, the four-star son of Michigan State basketball legend Jason Richardson, has planned his official visit to East Lansing.

For those Michigan State basketball fans who have been watching hoops for a long time, the last name “Richardson” should be one that is very familiar. For those who remember a time when Jason Richardson was playing, you remember how fun it was to watch him. There’s a chance that you could be seeing another fun player with the last name Richardson wearing the green and white in the near future.

Who could that be? None other than 2024 four-star combo guard Jase Richardson.

The four-star son of Jason Richardson will be taking an official visit to Michigan State on the weekend of Sept. 9, according to Travis Branham.

With the 2024 class already having two commits and looking to add another, Richardson should be one of the recruits who fans should keep an eye on. A lot of that has to do with him being a top-50 recruit but also his relationship with Michigan State. Being the son of Jason Richardson, Jase grew up around the Spartan program.

While some recruits who grow up with a parent who played for one school may want to go in their own direction, it’s always important to have that relationship, and Tom Izzo and the Richardson family have a good relationship. While they have that relationship, it must be interesting for Izzo to be recruiting the son of someone he coached this century.

Izzo has an opportunity on this official visit to get Jase to commit and if he is able to do so, this would almost complete the puzzle that is the 2024 class.

While there is no date for a commitment from Richardson, this is still a recruitment that fans should still continue to watch.

One of the top guards in the 2025 recruiting class has confirmed an unofficial visit this weekend with Michigan State basketball.

While we are a few days from football season kicking off, Michigan State basketball recruiting news is picking up. Just before finding out that five-star combo guard Jalen Haralson would be visiting soon, the Spartans also received word that 2025 guard Davion Hannah would be coming to East Lansing this weekend.

Davion confirmed the news with 247Sports MSU insider Justin Thind who mentioned that there will be two more big-time visitors this weekend for Izzo, as he mentioned in his VIP article. The three are big-time prospects and it is nice to see Tom Izzo getting them to campus early for an unofficial visit.

NEW: 2025 top-35 guard Davion Hannah will visit #MichifanState on September 1st, a source tells @SpartanTailgate.

He’s one of 3 hoops visitors expected at the home football opener on Friday night.

Hannah is a top-35 player in the 2025 class currently. The 247Sports Composite lists him as the No. 7 overall combo guard and the best player coming out of Wisconsin in the 2025 cycle. He stands 6-foot-5 and weighs 175 pounds currently and he has the skill set needed to develop into a very good point guard.

The Wisconsin prospect currently holds 12 scholarship offers. Most notable schools include Auburn, Wisconsin, Marquette, and Oregon. MSU is not one of them yet, however. I would imagine that an offer will follow his unofficial this weekend, assuming all goes well.

Michigan State’s recruiting has been on a hot streak of late. After landing the No. 4 overall class in 2023, MSU has followed up by landing two stellar recruits for 2024. One of their highly touted 2024 targets, Jase Richardson, is also a combo guard. Should he choose to go elsewhere, building relationships with Hannah in the 2025 class could pay huge dividends.

Now the next step is on Mel Tucker and staff give the recruits a great game to watch Friday. Doing so could help Hanna’s time in East Lansing become more memorable.

One of the top Michigan State basketball targets in the 2025 class will be taking a visit to East Lansing in October.

One of the top recruits in the country and the top recruit for Michigan State basketball in the 2025 class has scheduled an unofficial visit for Oct. 13 according to Jake Weingarten. That recruit is five-star guard Jalen Haralson.

Top-5 prospect in the 2025 class, Jalen Haralson, has locked in two more unofficial visits, he told @Stockrisers. Will visit Purdue on September 23rd and Michigan State on October 13th. Will be at Indiana in a few days for an unofficial and also has an Auburn official locked in.

Haralson is a combo guard who transferred to La Lumiere in Indiana and is a top-10 recruit in the 2025 class.

Not only is this an important visit for Michigan State, it also shows that Tom Izzo has been able to keep his momentum going from the 2023 and the 2024 classes. As of right now, it really seems like Izzo has been able to go after and get visits from almost every big-time recruit that he is targeting and Haralson is just another example of that.

While this is not an official visit, this visit is going to be in the middle of the football season. While the football game is going to be at Rutgers, if the team is doing well, there will be a buzz around campus. With the class of 2024 that is still being formed, it’s important that Michigan State continues to go after 2025 prospects as well.

You are seeing more teams do this, especially for the top talent and this is going to be true for Michigan State, too.

Michigan State basketball is not the only program that will be getting a visit from Haralson. In fact, he will also be visiting Purdue and Auburn. Having a recruiting battle with Auburn and Purdue will not be easy but it is an important one to try to win. We have seen Michigan State and Purdue battle for highly-rated players in the past from the state of Indiana and the battles have gone both ways.

Haralson’s recruitment will be a long process and it might be well over a year before he announces his decision but this is an important recruit for Izzo and Michigan State and one that fans should continue to monitor.
