Jaylen McClain is narrowing the focus of his recruitment. The blue-chip Class of 2024 defensive back has picked up 31 scholarship offers so far, and 10 teams appear to be separating themselves from the rest of the pack.

McClain tweeted his top 10 list this weekend, and the Big Ten is well-represented. Current B1G members Michigan, Michigan State, Penn State and Rutgers are featured, while future member USC is also included. The other 5 schools are Georgia, Notre Dame, Oregon, Stanford and Tennessee.

From West Orange, New Jersey, McClain is listed at 6-feet, 185 pounds. On the 247Sports composite rankings, McClain is rated 4-stars, the No. 4 New Jersey product, No. 21 safety and No. 242 prospect overall nationally in the 2024 recruiting class.
