On3 top-25 2024 prospect Jamari Howard commits to Michigan State

Hialeah (Fla.) Westland Hialeah four-star defensive back Jamari Howard has committed to Michigan State, he announced Monday afternoon.

The 6-foot-1, 170-pounder chose the Spartans over offers from Alabama, Georgia, Texas A&M, Miami and Florida State.

Howard is the No. 145 overall prospect in the 2024 class, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He ranks as the nation’s No. 15 cornerback and the No. 27 junior in the state of Florida.

On3 is significantly higher on him than the other recruiting services though, per the Industry Comparison. In the most recent On300 rankings, he was tabbed as the country’s No. 25 overall prospect, No. 4 cornerback and the No. 6 junior in the Sunshine State.

Howard is Michigan State’s second commitment in the 2024 class, joining four-star River Rouge (Mich.) wide receiver Nick Marsh.
