Michigan State football has to feel good about chances with 4-star DE Bai Jobe

Four-star top priority defensive end Bai Jobe visited Michigan State football a couple of weeks ago and is now about to make a decision.

Brandon Jordan is still waiting to make his first big splash stemming from official visit season and that could come in the form of four-star defensive end Bai Jobe from Norman, Okla.

The top-100 prospect just visited Michigan State football on June 17 officially and went to Vanderbilt and Miami, too, and he’s already planning to decide in the next couple of weeks.

Jobe announced his plans on Twitter.

So what’s the gut feeling here for Jobe?

If I were to guess, I’d say Michigan State leads and if he were to make his announcement today, he’d be a Spartan. Why do I feel this way? Because I think Tucker and the staff have made him a priority and the opportunity to get coached up by Jordan has to be a major draw. When Tucker wants you, he’s going to do a full-court press and I think that’s what Jobe got on his visit.

Jobe seems to like both Vanderbilt and Miami a lot, but Michigan State has been at the top of his list for a while and he really enjoyed his visit to East Lansing.

Jobe is ranked the No. 64 prospect in the class and the ninth-best edge rusher, according to the 247Sports Composite. He would immediately become Michigan State’s top-ranked commit and potentially set off a domino effect with other top defensive line targets.

Starting the 2023 class with Andrew Depaepe and Jobe on that defensive line would be scary good and not nearly done.
