While Michigan State cornerbacks coach Demetrice Martin is just getting started in his new role with the Spartans, he is already busy on the recruiting trail. On Monday, Martin and MSU offered a scholarship to highly-touted class of 2027 cornerback Havon Finney Jr.

Like Martin, Finney is a California native. The young cornerback is originally from Carson, California and currently attends Sierra Canyon School in Chatsworh. Martin is originally from Pasadena.

Also like Martin — who was a four-year letterwinner for the Spartans from 1992 through 1995 — Finney has connections to Michigan State and the East Lansing area.

Following the offer, Finney spoke with Spartans Illustrated to discuss his thoughts on Michigan State and to provide an update on his early recruiting process.
