2024 Naperville (Ill.) St. Francis three-star quarterback Alessio Milivojevic signed with Michigan State on Wednesday.

The 6-foot-2, 210 pound gunslinger committed to Michigan State on Sunday, following his official visit to East Lansing during the weekend of Dec. 15. He decommitted from Ball State during the visit. Milivojevic held other offers from Ole Miss, Tulane, Marshall, Eastern Michigan and Bowling Green.

Milivojevic is the No. 1212 prospect, No. 66 quarterback and No. 28 player from Illinois, per the On3 Industry Rankings. He and Oregon State transfer Aidan Chiles are the only scholarship quarterbacks on Michigan State’s roster as of now.

Milivojevic did not generate much Power Four interest until Michigan State and offensive coordinator Brian Lindgren offered him on Dec. 7. Nine days later, Milivojevic made the trip to East Lansing for his official visit. Michigan State’s improved facilities and Big Ten status impressed Milivojevic. He also identified with Smith, a former quarterback himself.

Scouting summary

Milivojevic has a good arm and often makes plays on the run. He displayed ability to move around in the pocket before delivering passes with accuracy. Milivojevic throws a good deep ball with touch and zip. He’s impressive under pressure and in roll-out situations.

The first name that comes to mind is North Carolina State quarterback Brennan Armstrong. Armstrong had a good arm and often used his feet to make defenses uncomfortable.

Personal life

Milivojevic grew up in Naperville, Ill., and played three seasons of varsity football at St. Francis High School, also home of the Spartans. His dad, Ivan Milivojevic, is a coach at St. Francis.
