Four-star running back Jason Brown has locked in an official visit with Michigan State football this summer.

After a week of crazy recruiting and transfer developments, Michigan State football got some good news on Friday as one of its top 2024 targets locked in an official visit for next month. Running back Jason Brown from Seattle O’Dea High School confirmed to On3’s Jason Killop that he plans on visiting June 23-25.

Brown is considered the No. 4 ranked running back overall in the 2024 class. According to the 247Sports Composite, Brown is also considered the No. 53 player overall. Should he commit to MSU, he would be Mel Tucker’s highest-ranked commit, beating 2023 commit Bai Jobe by one spot.

Brown has 24 offers so far including some major football programs. Alabama, Georgia, Texas, USC, Miami, Washington, Oregon, and Penn State all have offers out. He did take an unofficial visit to Michigan State back in April prior to the spring game.

After his unofficial visit in April, Brown was quoted saying his trip to East Lansing was “amazing” and that he had a “phenomenal time.” MSU has been working on recruiting Brown for a while now. The Spartans had sent staff members to watch him while they were in Seattle last September to play Washington and have kept in close contact since. Seeing that added in with the fact Brown speaks so highly of Effrem Reed, things could be trending up for the Spartans.

Overall, Michigan State was considered to be on the outside looking in when it came to Brown prior to Friday’s announcement. Brown has strong ties to Washington and they have been considered the front-runner for a while. Experts had listed Alabama, Texas, Georgia, and USC as the other schools that would probably get tapped for an official visit. Michigan State being confirmed as one of the visits should be considered a big move for Mel Tucker and the staff.

The weekend of June 23 already has another four-star running back coming to campus in Anthony Carrie. Landing one or both of the elite 2024 backs would be huge for Michigan State football. Tucker is still continuing to try to stabilize the run game after the departure of Kenneth Walker III. Either of these backs would go a long way in helping that. Brown specifically is one of the best playmakers in this class regardless of position. He has excellent vision, runs with authority, and he could be a true difference-maker for the Spartans should he come here.

Brown has been selected to play in both the 2024 All-American Bowl and the 2024 Polynesian Bowl as well.
