Breaking news: Five star WR Ademola Faleye Decommit and Flip to Florida State Seminole over Alabama and Auburn…

 

Florida State welcomed in Ademola Faleye as a transfer from Norfolk State. After two seasons in East Lansing, he has decided to transfer to another school. He finished his MSU career with 2 catches for 18 yards.

 

As his transfer portal recruitment moves along, an update was provided via X. The Spartan TE transfer has offers from Eastern Michigan, Kennesaw State, Southern Miss, Robert Morris and Alcorn State. He will be visiting EMU and KSU.

 

 

We have heard how Michigan State had one of the best transfer classes this offseason, and the tight end position is where we see one of new Head Coach Jonathan Smith’s best pulls, albeit one from his former school.

Just a few weeks after MSU hired Smith, and just a few days after Oregon State QB Aidan Chiles announced his transfer selection, tight end Jack Velling also announced he would be joining the Spartans. Early talk ahead of the 2024 season indicates that Velling may be among the best TEs in the nation, and that is further indicated by him being placed on the John Mackey Award watchlist, an award that Georgia’s Brock Bowers won each of the last two seasons.

 

Like just about everywhere else on the roster, Michigan State sees a lot of turnover at the tight end spot.

 

Returning Players: Brennan Parachek, Tyneil Hopper, Michael Masunas, Ademola Faleye

 

Departed Players: Maliq Carr, Evan Morris, Jack Nickel, Jaylan Franklin, Jackson Morse

 

Transfers In: Jack Velling

 

Recruits In: Wyatt Hook, Charlie Baker, Reeves Taylor

 

Michigan State returns four tight ends who were in the program in some sort in 2023, and they are bringing in three true freshman and one transfer. Three guys transferred out, most notably Maliq Carr to Houston, while two players ran out of eligibility.
