While we all wait to see who Michigan State football’s starting quarterback will be tomorrow, Mel Tucker did give some clarity about the special teams unit starters on his radio show this week.
Mel Tucker referred to Jonathan Kim as kicker and Ryan Eckley as punter on the show, which seems to confirm that they are the starters, officially.
Jonathan Kim is a transfer from North Carolina who was considered to be one of the best kick off specialists in college football, He transferred to Michigan State to show what he can do as a place kicker and it looks like he will get that chance.
Eckley is a former 5-star punter who joined the team as a preferred walk-on in 2022.
Mel Tucker on his radio show mentions Jonathan Kim as K and Ryan Eckley as P. None of the other competitors for those jobs.
