Michigan State football 2022 transfer tracker

Check out how the transfer portal is shaking out for MSU in 2022

As many know, the transfer portal is set to be a huge part of Mel Tucker’s tenure at Michigan State. The new era of college football is centered around the use of the transfer portal. Tucker used the portal to flip a roster from a 2-5 season in his first year to an 11-2 season in year two, mainly in part to the additions through the transfer portal.

The transfer portal should be viewed as another form of recruiting, as a team will have two ‘recruiting classes’ per year, the traditional high school class and a transfer class.

Transfers do work both ways, while the team will add multiple players through the portal, losing players to the portal will also become a reality every season.

Take a look at how Michigan State’s 2022 transfer portal, both incoming and outgoing, looks like:

This one took me a little off guard. On Monday, Michigan State football freshman tight end Kameron Allen entered the NCAA transfer portal.

Allen was a 3-star recruit from the 2021 class. Allen has impressive size at 6-foot-5, 220-pounds, but may have seen the writing on the wall with some talented tight ends coming into the program next year that he may have more opportunities elsewhere.

One Spartan listed in 247Sports’ ‘100 true freshmen who will impact 2021 college football season’

True freshman tight end Kameron Allen is expected to make an instant impact for Michigan State in 2021, according to 247Sports. Last week, Chris Hummer of 247Sports put together a list of the top 100 true freshmen that’ll impact the 2021 college …

True freshman tight end Kameron Allen is expected to make an instant impact for Michigan State in 2021, according to 247Sports.

Last week, Chris Hummer of 247Sports put together a list of the top 100 true freshmen that’ll impact the 2021 college football season, and Allen cracked the list. Here’s what Hummer had to say about Allen:

The Spartan tight room could use an upgrade, particularly from a pass-catching perspective, after nobody from the group posted better than a 65.7 receiving grade last year, per PFF College. The group was also egregious in pass protection, but that’s a topic for another time. Allen was a really productive receiver in high school, catching 44 passes for 808 yards and eight touchdowns as a senior. He’s on the thinner side at 6-foot-5, 220-pound but brings a playmaking element to the position the Spartans have lacked. Allen was well received this spring. He was even called “the leader” of the tight end room.

Allen — who is from Forney, Texas — was a three-star prospect and ranked as the No. 67 tight end in the 2021 class by 247Sports.

A lot of what Hummer said about Michigan State and Allen makes sense, and definitely could be something to keep an eye on this fall. More than anything, Allen should be a solid prospect for the Spartans in years to come should he not have the instant impact Hummer is forecasting this season.

Michigan State loves players from Texas. Just in the past few years alone, the Spartans have been active in recruiting players from there.

Michigan State loves players from Texas. Just in the past few years alone, the Spartans have been active in recruiting players from there. Between players like Darius Snow, Hampton Fay, Josh Butler, Tyler Higby and Kameron Allen, all of them have come from Texas. Now, the Spartans will look to add 2022 safety Peyton Williams to that list.

Williams, who is 6-foot-0 and weighs 180-pounds, attends Rockwell-Heath in his hometown of Rockwall, Texas. Williams currently has no stars and is unranked on 247sports.

Williams has only received one other offer and it’s from New Mexico. He was named to second-team all-district this previous season.

Williams has great speed, size and length for a defensive back. If you look at the highlight tape pinned to his Twitter profile, you will see some of the big hits that he delivers and how well he plays the ball. This would be a great addition for the class of 2022.

Looking at Michigan State Football’s early 2021 enrollees

Mel Tucker and Michigan State will have five early enrollees in the head mans first recruiting class of his tenure, the 2021 class.

January is here and Mel Tucker has just completed his first season as the head man of the Michigan State football program. With the end of the season here it also means the conclusion of the 2021 recruiting class is soon to come, Tucker’s first in East Lansing.

A big part of a recruiting class is finding some members to enroll early, joining the team in January for the offseason strength and conditioning program. It is a huge step for recruits to make if they have a desire to play early in their college careers.

Mel Tucker currently has 19 members in his first recruiting class at Michigan State, the class of 2021, and five have announced their intentions to enroll early this January. Lets look at who they are:
