Jordan Hall made a huge announcement on Tuesday night, giving Michigan State football fans — and Pat Fitzgerald — an early Christmas present. The junior linebacker announced that he’d be returning for his senior season in East Lansing after an impressive 2025 campaign.
This gives Fitzgerald his leader of the defense, and new co-defensive coordinator and linebackers coach Max Bullough now has a potential All-American linebacker to work with.
Alessio Milivojevic, Brady Pretzlaff, Derrick Simmons, Aydan West, Braylon Collier, and Jayden Savoury, among others, all look like they’ll be back for 2026, but who else does Fitzgerald need to make sure returns this offseason?
