REPORT: Member of Gemon Green’s family, Michigan student-athlete attempted to attack Michigan State football TE Maliq Carr

REPORT: Member of Gemon Green’s family, Michigan student-athlete attempted to attack Michigan State football TE Maliq Carr

The aftermath of the now-infamous Michigan-Michigan State football tunnel incident following their rivalry game had grown quiet. It seems coach Mel Tucker and the Spartans are intent on letting law enforcement handle the investigation rather than contribute to hearsay and rumors.

Until Friday.

Twitter user @dhagg42 reported an unnamed member of Gemon Green’s family, who is also a Michigan student-athlete, attempted to attack Michigan State tight end Maliq Carr as he was attempting to board the MSU team bus. The story has been corroborated and confirmed by Maliq Carr’s family.

This incident would have happened after the tunnel incident.

As many rumors are swirling about what actually happened outside of the extremely concerning footage, this is another domino to fall as we wait for more information to be revealed in what was a traumatic night for a rivalry that has gotten quite ugly.

[jwplayer NIG71kHM-PROpJzTY]

The Spartans have now lost 21 players through the transfer portal this season alone after Tommy Guajardo announced he put his name in the transfer portal this afternoon. This comes just a few days after former Purdue tight end and wide receiver Maliq Carr announced he is transferring to MSU.

Guajardo was a 3-star tight end in the class of 2020 and was No. 30 tight end and No. 22 player in the state of Michigan. He redshirted in 2020 and did not see any play time.

Guajardo did see the field in the Spring game, but ultimately decided this was the best move for his future. He thanked coach Dantonio and Tucker for giving him this opportunity and thanked the program.

Purdue transfer, former 4-star WR Maliq Carr officially commits to Michigan State football

Michigan State has landed the commitment of former 4-star WR and Purdue transfer Maliq Carr.

[mm-video type=video id=01f3c17j9wh5xdpb0j6x playlist_id=01eqbz825g32p3akwt player_id=01f1jz1vgtfhzk6ner image=https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/video/thumbnail/mmplus/01f3c17j9wh5xdpb0j6x/01f3c17j9wh5xdpb0j6x-94bc96c0600b72bfde06a5e50385bb0f.jpg]

Michigan State football has made another big splash in the NCAA transfer portal, and it’s also going to benefit Tom Izzo and the basketball team. On Friday, dual sport athlete and former 4-star wide receiver, Maliq Carr, announced that he is officially committed to transfer from Purdue to MSU.

Carr is expected to play both football and basketball, making him the second dual sport athlete Tom Izzo will get to have on his team after Keon Coleman, saving him a scholarship while still getting a high-caliber athlete on his roster.

Carr is from Oak Park, Michigan and was the No. 175 ranked player in the 2020 class. He played sparingly as a reserve last year for Purdue, only catching one pass for 15 yards against Iowa on October 24.

Reported MSU dual sport transfer Maliq Carr reopens recruitment

Former Purdue wide receiver/tight end Maliq Carr transferring to Michigan State is apparently no longer a done deal.

[mm-video type=video id=01f3c17j9wh5xdpb0j6x playlist_id=01eqbz825g32p3akwt player_id=none image=https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/video/thumbnail/mmplus/01f3c17j9wh5xdpb0j6x/01f3c17j9wh5xdpb0j6x-94bc96c0600b72bfde06a5e50385bb0f.jpg]

Former Purdue wide receiver/tight end Maliq Carr transferring to Michigan State is apparently no longer a done deal.

Earlier this week it was reported that Carr would be leaving Purdue to become a Spartan and play both football and basketball at Michigan State. However, Carr is now refuting that report and posted on Twitter on Saturday that “all schools can contact me.”

Carr is originally from Oak Park, Mich., and was a four-star recruit out of high school. He was ranked the No. 126 overall recruit and the No. 5 tight end in the country, according to 247Sports.

Carr’s latest comments could mean he’ll still end up in green-and-white, and that he simply isn’t ready to commit as it was reported earlier this week. However, it could also mean something changed from Thursday to Saturday and Carr is no longer considering Michigan State.

This will be a player and situation Michigan State fans will want to continue to monitor as he’d be a very addition to both the football and basketball programs.

Michigan State football expected to land WR/TE transfer Maliq Carr

Purdue WR/TE transfer Maliq Carr is expected to commit to the Michigan State Spartans to play both football and basketball.

[jwplayer NIG71kHM-PROpJzTY]

Michigan State has made another splash in the transfer portal, this time landing Maliq Carr, a WR/TE from Purdue.

Carr is originally from Oak Park, Michigan, and played his high school ball at Oak Park High School. Carr was a 4-star recruit out of high school, ranked as the No. 126 recruit and 5th best tight end in the country according to 247Sports.

Another bonus for Michigan State athletics, Carr will be joining the basketball team as well. Standing at 6-foot-5 and weighing 235 pounds, Carr will be an explosive athlete for both the football and basketball programs.

It is unknown if the Spartan staff sees Carr as a wide receiver or tight end, but either way he will be a welcomed addition to the MSU offense.
