Josh Kelly enters transfer portal; 5 landing spots for WR
5. Michigan State
Michigan State has struggled mightily in the Big Ten in recent years, but there is now a sense of optimism in East Lansing after the program hired Jonathan Smith to be its next head coach. Smith showed interest in Kelly coming out of high school while he was at Oregon State and he could be someone the head coach targets to build a new culture in year one in East Lansing. There are no Michigan State receivers that produced at Kelly’s level in 2023 meaning he would instantly get a chance as the Spartans’ top wideout. Perhaps the biggest factor working against Kelly joining Smith at MSU would be playing far from home for the first time, but it could ultimately be the right fit.
