Blocker currently holds 10 offers. Other schools that have extended them include Boston College, Duke, Kansas State and Nebraska.
Meanwhile, Michigan State has pledges from three cornerbacks in its 2023 recruiting class. They are Denton (Texas) Ryan four-star Chance Rucker, McDonough (Ga.) Eagles Landing Christian Academy three-star Colton Hood and Tampa (Fla.) Carrollwood Day three-star Eddie Pleasant. Additionally, Blocker’s high school teammate — four-star running back Kedrick Reescano — has been committed to the Spartans since Jan. 17.
Blocker has an On3 NIL Valuation of $6K. The On3 NIL Valuation is an index that looks to set the standard market value for both high school and college-level athletes. The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.
