A linebacker prospect the Spartans were pursuing is no longer on the board.
Rome Ewell of Springtown, Texas announced his commitment to Houston on Monday. Ewell’s commitment to the Cougars comes after his official visit there this past weekend.
Ewell is listed as a three-star linebacker, with a recruiting rating of 86 in 247Sports’ system. He ranks as the No. 91 linebacker and No. 1,028 overall prospect in the 2027 class, according to 247Sports composite.
Michigan State recently entered the mix for Ewell, locking in an official visit for later this month. However, it’s presumed that official visit will no longer occur now that Ewell has elected to commit to nearby Houston.
