Mississippi State Bulldogs
· 2026-07-04
Mississippi State Bulldogs have landed a commitment from three-star safety Rontrae Carter, a key addition to their 2027 recruiting class.
The Bulldogs secured Carter's commitment over the likes of Houston and TCU, following his official visit to Starkville last weekend.
Carter is the ninth commitment of June for Mississippi State, which has been fierce in recruiting Louisiana over the years.
The Bulldogs have hosted Carter on numerous occasions, dating back to last season and again this spring.
Carter's commitment is a significant boost to the team's defensive lineup, with the safety citing the coaches' emphasis on competitiveness as a major draw.
He also praised the team's life-after-football program, which prepares players for success both on and off the field.
The Bulldogs' recruiting class is taking shape, with nearly double-digit commitments over the last month, under the guidance of Jeff Lebby.
The Bulldogs will look to build on this momentum as they prepare for their next game against UL Monroe Warhawks on 2026-09-05.
Carter's commitment is a testament to the team's strong recruiting efforts, with the safety citing the coaches' constant interest in him over the years.
The Bulldogs have shown a ability to attract top talent, with Carter being the latest example.
And with their strong recruiting class, the team is poised for success in the upcoming season.
But the Bulldogs will need to continue to work hard to achieve their goals, with the competition in the SEC being fierce.
So the team will look to use Carter's commitment as a springboard to further success, both on and off the field.
The Bulldogs' life-after-football program is a major selling point, with Carter citing it as a key factor in his decision.
This program helps players become extremely successful at a young age, both on and off the field, which is a major advantage for the team.
The team's emphasis on competitiveness is also a major draw, with Carter citing it as a key reason for his commitment.
The Bulldogs' coaches, including Jeff Lebby, have been instrumental in securing Carter's commitment, with their constant interest in him over the years.
