Naquan Jones had a change of heart. Again.

Only this time, that change of heart favored Michigan State.

After the four-star defensive tackle announced three weeks ago that he had decommitted from Michigan State, he recommitted to the program on Tuesday.

The decision came on the heels of an unofficial visit to East Lansing over the weekend, in which he saw Michigan State dismantle Penn State.

The Evanston, Ill. native originally opened up his recruitment with offers from Florida, Nebraska and Ole Miss on the table.

Instead, he’ll rejoin Mark Dantonio’s top-20 2016 recruiting class as the second-highest rated defensive player. He’s the 23rd-highest rated defensive tackle recruit in the country.
