Michigan State is working hard to flip one of the top 2023 commits of a fellow Big Ten school.
Four-star defensive lineman Ashton Porter confirmed on Tuesday that he’ll be taking an official visit to Michigan State this weekend. Porter is currently committed to Northwestern and ranks as the Wildcats’ second-highest commit in the 2023 class.

Porter ranks as the No. 46 defensive lineman and No. 308 overall prospect in 247Sports’ composite rankings for the 2023 class. He hails from Cypress, Texas, and ranks as the No. 56 player from the Lone Star State.
Porter holds offers from more than 30 programs, including Michigan State. Along with the Spartans and Wildcats, he has offers from Arkansas, Baylor, Miami (FL), Oklahoma State, TCU, Tennessee, Texas and Nebraska.
It’ll be interesting to see if Michigan State can make enough progress in Porter’s recruitment this weekend to potentially flip him from the Wildcats. He has been committed to Northwestern since June but a strong visit this weekend could potentially change that in the Spartans’ favor.
