A quarterback prospect that Michigan State has identified as a key target in the 2027 class has picked up an offer from a fellow Big Ten school.
Michigan State target Cooper Newman of Sevierville, Tenn. announced on Friday that he has received an offer from Northwestern. Newman picked up an offer from the Spartans last week, and the Wildcats are now the latest power four program to also offer Newman.
Newman is listed as a three-star quarterback in the 2027 class, according to On3. He ranks as the No. 35 quarterback and No. 14 player from Tennessee in the class.
Michigan State and Northwestern are just a few of a few big-time programs to recently extend him an offer. He has also picked up notable offers from North Carolina and Georgia Tech in May. Outside of those four schools, he also holds offers from Virginia Tech, Appalachian State, Toledo, Marshall, Bowling Green and Gardner-Webb.
Michigan State is set to host Newman for an unofficial visit next week. Newman will be at Michigan State on June 13.
