Spring football recruiting is in full swing as recruits are setting their official visit list for the summer. College football teams have been hosting recruits for events like junior days. With prospects narrowing down schools, some teams may be eager to see if they made the cut, and a few Big Ten teams did that for a 2026 offensive lineman.
Trending
On3's Hayes Fawcett reported on Wednesday that offensive lineman Gregory Patrick out of Portage Northern High School in Michigan has listed his top four schools: Notre Dame, Michigan, Penn State and Michigan State.
Patrick's official visit list is set as he'll visit Penn State on May 30, Michigan State on June 6, Notre Dame on June 13 and Michigan on June 20, according to On3's Hunter Shelton.
Many college football fans reacted to Gregory Patrick's top four schools, with some fans debating which schools he'll potentially choose.
"He's a spartan tbh," one person wrote.
On the contrary, another posted:
"Not to MSU."
More college football fans reacted to the post with a comment reading:
"Best players in Michigan go to Michigan."
While one person wrote:
"No hesitation, Go Green!"
Another comment read:
"if he'd like to pro, he should go to Michigan"
Being that Patrick is from Michigan, that could be a factor for schools like Michigan and Michigan State to land the commitment from the four-star. Patrick spoke to On3's Steve Wiltfong about what can go into his commitment, saying,
"I would say academics are a big part of the school I’ll choose."
