Michigan State's coaching staff impressed transfer defensive lineman Jalen Satchell enough to secure his commitment.
Michigan State and Coach Jonathan Smith suffered multiple losses to the transfer portal earlier in the offseason. They lost two of their most critical defensive linemen and over 12 players to the portal, putting a pretty big dent into their roster.
Michigan State secured the commitment of former Old Dominion defensive lineman Jalen Satchell. Satchell chose Michigan State over Houston, TCU, Temple and Texas-San Antonio.Once he entered the transfer portal, Smith and Michigan State defensive coordinator/linebackers coach Joe Rossi were amongst the first schools to contact Satchell. Coach Rossi was pivotal in Satchell’s commitment.
“I heard from coach Rossi first,” Satchell said. “It didn’t take too long. TCU offered me first, and about two or three days later, Michigan State called and offered me.”
