Mississippi State football recruiting class 2024: See the Bulldogs’ signees
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.

D1Baseball rankings: Mississippi State, Ole Miss, and Southern Miss surge after big weekends – SuperTalk Mississippi
Mississippi State, Ole Miss, and Southern Miss have surged in the rankings after a big weekend on the diamond.
The Bulldogs (30-10, 10-8 SEC) jumped two spots to No. 15 in the latest poll from D1Baseball following a strong bounce back. Brian O’ Connor’s club, after having been on the wrong side of SEC sweeps in back-to-back series, earned a 10-rule win over Samford on Tuesday, then took care of business with a sweep at South Carolina.
Next up for Mississippi State is a midweek home matchup versus Memphis on Tuesday before LSU heads to Dudy Noble Field for Super Bulldog Weekend.
The Rebels (29-12, 10-8 SEC) took the biggest leap in the rankings, making an eight-spot jump to No. 17 despite not budging in the top 25 a week ago after sweeping LSU. Once Mike Bianco’s club took the first two games at Tennessee in the most recent series, D1Baseball co-owner Kendall Rogers made note that Ole Miss fans could expect to see their team catapult in his outlet’s poll. Come Monday, though the red and blue lost the series finale, D1Baseball stuck to its word.
“What a weekend so far for [Ole Miss baseball]. Cade Townsend carried a no hitter into the sixth in an 8-1 win over Tennessee to take the series,” Rogers wrote on X. “Rebs are on a heater. Safe to say they’ll be much higher than 25 on Monday.”
Next up for the red-hot Rebels is a home midweek outing versus Murray State, the team that knocked the Rebels out of the postseason last year, before No. 5 Georgia travels to Swayze Field for Double Decker weekend.
The Golden Eagles (28-12, 11-7 Sun Belt) made a four-spot jump to No. 18 after securing a much needed conference sweep to keep hopes of hosting an NCAA Tournament regional alive. Christian Ostrander’s club defended home turf over the weekend, taking all three games from a solid Texas State club.
Next up for the black and gold is a Tuesday midweek battle versus former conference foe Tulane, before making an hour and a half drive to South Alabama for the weekend.
