Mississippi State has secured a commitment from offensive lineman Li'Marcus Jones, who had previously been committed to Colorado. The flip was reported by On3's Chad Simmons on November 9, 2026.
Jones, a highly regarded offensive line prospect, cited Mississippi State's persistent recruitment as a key factor in his decision. "They never gave up on me," Jones said regarding the Bulldogs' coaching staff.
The addition bolsters Mississippi State's offensive line recruiting class for the 2027 cycle. Colorado loses a pledge from a player they had targeted to anchor their front five.
