What will the 2-deep look like at OL and CB next year?

Will Titan kick out to tackle or stay at guard?

Will Mastel stay at guard or move back to Center?

What is Rollins best spot?

I imagine Carr will be back in the mix.

Assuming no one else leaves for Portal, I think it would be:

LT:
Zimmer / Thornton
LG:
Mastel / Nyland
C:
Kaplan / Nilson
**This is a spot where Mastel could play, as he was slated to start the season
RG:
Rollins / Carr
RT:
Fleischmann / Ezekiel

Depending on development, they may move Thornton to RT, and slide Fleischmann into RG again would be my guess

Corners:
I'm confident we'll pick a few up, so this will likely change

CB:
Carr / Krein (?)
CB:
Boyd / Coleman / Steptoe (?)

I think Tom Carter played some DB in high school. All-state cornerback first team. Very fast and athletic. 10.83 100m in high school.


MSU - 17 team National Champions (most recent 2025); 57 individual National Champions (most recent 2023).

I'm very surprised Carter hasn't found a spot yet. Stud in HS.

My wayyy to far out reckless prediction for the 2 deep would be...

(Blue = 2025 All Conference; Blue + Bold = 2025 All American)

OFFENSE 2 DEEP
QB - Lamson, Warren/Vigen
WR - Dowler, Reed
WR - Steel, Cole
Slot - Woods, Hendrick/Carter
TE - Lencioni, Schlepp/Valcin
RB - Jones, Breslin/Coon
LT - Zimmer, TBD
LG - Rollins, Kaplan
C - Mastel, Nyland
RG - Fleischmann, Carr
RT - Thornton, Ezekiel

DEFENSE 2 DEEP
LE - Brock, Solano
DT - Marsh, Sharbono
DT - Asuega , Black
RE - Crews, Vigen/Fredrickson
LB - Taylor, Grebe
LB - Daly, Ahrens
CB - Boyd, Steptoe
CB - Carr, Thomas II
NB - Gray, Ross
SS - Dowler, Dolan/Petre
FS - Meredith, Taki

This roster is absolutely STACKED already, only need a few portal pieces here and there to strengthen a few areas. We have guys waiting in the wings, but I would go after 5 spots to bolster this championship caliber roster...

My Portal Targets would be...
1 DT
1 DE
2 CB
1 WR
