STARKVILLE — Jeramiah McCloud, who announced his commitment via social media, became the third member of Mississippi State football’s 2025 recruiting class on Sunday and the first since Jeff Lebby was hired as head coach.
McCloud is an unrated prospect, according to the 247Sports Composite rankings. He’s a defensive lineman out of Gadsden County High School in Havana, Florida.
He is the second defensive player and second out-of-state prospect in the class for MSU, joining three-star linebacker AJ Rice from Madison, Alabama.
Four-star quarterback KaMario Taylor is the other commit in the class. Taylor (Oct. 13) and Rice (Sept. 4) announced their commitments while Zach Arnett was MSU’s head coach.
Lebby, who was hired as Arnett’s replacement on Nov. 26, is in his first offseason as a head coach. He came to MSU after two seasons as Oklahoma’s offensive coordinator.

Lebby retained defensive line coach David Turner, and hired former Alabama special teams coordinator Coleman Hutzler as Mississippi State’s defensive coordinator.
