STARKVILLE — National signing day has arrived, and it should be a quiet one for Mississippi State football. First-year coach Jeff Lebby added 22 players in the early signing period, including 15 early enrollees.

MSU is no exception to the norm. Most college programs secure a majority of their signing classes in the December signing period, which was introduced in 2017.

However, it doesn’t mean the day will go to waste for the Bulldogs. Sanfrisco Magee, a receiver who flipped from Ole Miss in December, is expected to sign. The decisions of junior college receiver Leland Smith and defensive end Josaiah Knight loom.

MSU is looking to add to an already impressive receivers class. Braylon Burnside, Mario Craver and JJ Harrell make up a trio of four-star receivers Mississippi State inked in the early signing period.

Entering Wednesday, MSU had the nation’s No. 28 class, according to the 247Sports Composite rankings.
