Locked On Spartans host Matt Sheehan gives his blunt take on the state of Michigan State football today. There’s good news and bad news.

The Spartans added Transfer Portal talent across the board. More help along the offensive line was good, so was adding multiple defensive ends, and adding more receiving help for quarterback Aiden Chiles. Now for the bad news.

Michigan State has not added enough top-end talent, at least on paper, to close the talent gap with Michigan, Ohio State, and Penn State. Will the Spartans add more transfers before the 2025 season begins?
