For Mel Tucker and Michigan State's new coaching staff recruiting has been a focal point since the day he arrived – not even a canceled season will stop Tucker from having his guys send out offers.

Three-star defensive-end Popeye Williams announced the Spartans reached out, saying, "After a great conversation with @CoachRonBurton, I am blessed to receive an offer from Michigan State University."

Williams currently plays for Westfield high school and hails from Indiana, where he plays weak-side defensive end.

According to 247Sports Composite Rankings, he is a top-5 recruit in his home state.

And the No. 14 overall prospect at his position for 2022.

The 6-foot-3, 225-pound WDE holds offers from Alabama, Boston College, Bowling Green, Penn State, Wisconsin, Virginia Tech, Cincinnati, Kentucky, and Central Michigan.

MSU doesn't feature any commits for the '22 or '23 recruiting classes; however, they have 12 prospects stepping on campus next year.
