Jon Denman, coveted RB candidate for Michigan State 2025, sets decision date

Michigan State and coach Jonathan Smith hope their success in June will continue into July as they wait to hear back from other potential recruits.

Smith and his coaching staff were able to nearly triple the number of new recruits for their 2025 recruiting class by signing many talented players from Michigan while also prioritizing players from across the country.

Smith and Michigan State are looking forward to the decision of a talented running back from Texas who recently announced that he will soon decide where he will play college football.
Running back Jon Denman, a native of Palestine, Texas, will announce his college decision on Saturday, according to 247Sports insider Mike Roach. Denman is a three-star running back prospect for the class of 2025.

Michigan State is known for producing viable running backs at the college and professional levels and could certainly use the signing of the talented running back as it would significantly strengthen its 2025 recruiting class.

Denman is a highly rated prospect according to 247Sports. The website has him ranked as the 53rd best running back in its overall rankings for the 2025 recruiting class. 247Sports also has him listed as the 669th best overall prospect for the 2025 recruiting class.

According to Roach, the running back will announce his decision on July 6.

Denman’s decision came down to six finalists. In addition to Michigan State, Arizona, Boston College, Houston, Oklahoma State and TCU are in the running to sign Denman. 247Sports has not yet listed any favorites for the talented running back, but Smith and his coaching staff are hoping Denman decides to join the Spartans’ rapidly growing 2025 recruiting class.

As Smith and his coaching staff get closer to the start of the season, improving their 2025 recruiting class will undoubtedly remain a top priority. They had a successful June; if they can follow that up with a successful July, the Spartans’ long-term plans may be further along than many realize.
