Michigan State WR Nick Marsh transferring to Indiana

Top-ranked Indiana plucked a marquee target out of the transfer portal Sunday, securing a commitment from Michigan State wideout Nick Marsh.

Marsh, who announced the move on Instagram, remains in the Big Ten and brings two seasons of eligibility to the conference champions. The 6-foot-3 Detroit native, regarded as a four-star recruit coming out of high school, led the Spartans in receiving in each of his two years. He leaves East Lansing, Mich., with 100 catches for 1,311 yards and nine touchdowns, which includes 662 yards and six scores this season.

He declared his intent to transfer on Dec. 1 and officially entered the portal Friday, becoming one of the most sought-after players. In 2024, Marsh set Michigan State records for true freshmen with 41 receptions and 649 yards. He proved a headache for Indiana as well, posting 12 catches for 142 yards and two scores across two career meetings.

Marsh's arrival gives head coach Curt Cignetti a proven playmaker on the perimeter as the Hoosiers reload for 2026 while also preparing for their College Football Playoff semifinal against Oregon on Jan. 9 in the Peach Bowl. He should factor immediately into a room that must replace senior Elijah Sarratt, who leads the Hoosiers with 13 touchdown receptions and ranks second with 55 catches and 727 receiving yards.
