BREAKING: Belleville (Mich.) 4-star LB Jeremiah Beasley announces for Michigan.
Relationships with Chris Partridge & Steve Clinkscale were strong here, but chance to play early and be part of a strong recruiting class were other primary factors he says.https://t.co/blBQAH0zAk pic.twitter.com/ruUzbU6cZ8

Beasley ranks as the No. 25 linebacker and No. 237 overall prospect in 247Sports’ rankings for the 2024 class. He’s also listed as the No. 5 player from Michigan.
Michigan State had long been considered the favorite to land Beasley’s commitment, with numerous crystal ball predictions submitted in favor of the Spartans last fall. However, things shifted in the last few months with Michigan taking over as the front runner and eventual winner.
Michigan State has had a handful of other big-name linebacker prospects recently take official visits. So the focus will now turn to trying to win one of those key recruiting battles.
