Jalen Hurts was never going to transfer from Alabama to East Lansing. Tate Martell wouldn’t have been able to jump from Ohio State to MSU. However, the Michigan State Spartan’s are in a worse position by refusing to even give players like that the option.
During his end-of-season press conference, Mark Dantonio was asked about the possibility of bringing in a transfer quarterback. The head coach dismissed the idea entirely.
Monday, Martell announced his plans to transfer to Miami. Tuesday, Hurts officially transferred to Oklahoma. An 11 additional quarterbacks have already transferred, including Justin Fields transferring from Georgia to Ohio State.
