Thompson is the fourth in-state commit for Michigan State in 2015. Detroit (Mich.) King linebacker Tyriq Thompson committed to Michigan State on Wednesday during a visit to East Lansing, choosing the Spartans over Michigan.

A major in-state recruiting win for Mark Dantonio and his coaching staff as Thompson’s father played his college ball in Ann Arbor.

The younger Thompson is excited about making his own mark in East Lansing.

“It feels like home,” he told 247Sports. “Coach D knows what he’s doing.”

The No. 5 prospect overall in the state of Michigan and the nation’s No. 27 outside linebacker according to the 247Sports Composite, the 6-foot-1, 220-pound Thompson also held offers from the likes of Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska and Wisconsin.

Thompson plans to enroll early at Michigan State. He is commit No. 13 for the Spartans in the class-of-2015, and the fourth from in-state joining his King teammate Kyonta Stallworth, cornerback Tyson Smith and athlete Khari Willis.

“I didn’t feel any pressure from them and they allowed me to take my time,” Thompson said. “It’s like family. The guys are bought in to what Coach D talks about. The people are great and I’m looking forward to forging great relationships.”
