Tate Myre had a dream to one day play football at Michigan State University. A strong linebacker and running back prospect at Oxford High School, Myre was well on his way to earning that opportunity.
Myre, 16, tragically passed away in heroic fashion during the school shootings at Oxford High School.
Mel Tucker opened today’s signing day festivities honoring Myre as a signee to the 2022 recruiting class. While he was never able to live out his dream, his legacy will live in infamy as a member of the Michigan State football program, and he will forever be a Spartan Dawg.
We would like to welcome Tate Myre as an honorary Spartan Dawg to our #Proce22Driven class 💚 #SD4L #OxfordStrong pic.twitter.com/QD64s0HKnP
