QB Rocky Lombardi joins other prominent Michigan State players in transfer portal

Rocky Lombardi’s run at Michigan State has come to an end as the junior quarterback entered the NCAA transfer portal on Friday.

Lombardi was the fourth Spartan to do so a day after Michigan State’s season officially came to an end after its scheduled game with Maryland was canceled because of COVID-19 issues within the Terrapins program. He also becomes the ninth Michigan State player to enter the portal since the season began under first-year coach Mel Tucker.

While players like offensive lineman Devontae Dobbs and cornerback Julian Barnett had plenty of buzz that was never seen on the field, Lombardi is the one player in the group that was a key part of Michigan State’s roster the past three seasons.
