Dominic Black, a 4-star offensive tackle from Tri-Village, Ohio, has announced his final five schools, which include Michigan State University (MSU), Kentucky, Virginia Tech, Indiana, and Tennessee. Black is set to commit on June 10, 2025, and is currently ranked 191st overall in the 2027 class. He stands at 6'5'' and weighs 295 pounds, attracting interest from numerous Power Four programs beyond his final five. Despite MSU's efforts, Kentucky appears to be in a strong position to secure Black's commitment, with three predictions from Rivals staff favoring them. This situation poses a challenge for MSU, especially since Black plans to commit before his official visit to East Lansing, which is scheduled for June 12-14. Black's recruitment is critical for MSU, as landing him would bolster their offensive line, following the commitment of another blue-chip offensive tackle, Collin Campbell. Additionally, MSU has already secured a commitment from 3-star tackle Jack Carlson and is still pursuing 4-star Caleb Johnson.
