Michigan State Lands Top-5 Quarterback From The Transfer Portal

Michigan State Lands QB Aidan Chiles

Chiles was the 12th-ranked quarterback in the 2023 class. He is following his coach to East Lansing. Chiles had a very promising 2023. He is a dual-threat quarterback who racked up 309 yards passing and four touchdowns in nine games this season. He also ran 17 times for 79 yards and three scores. This is a huge win for Smith as all of the quarterbacks who were under scholarship left the program via the portal. For a rebuilding team, the quarterback position is the most important to figure out and the Spartans have their guy.

2024 Outlook

It is a brutal early-season schedule for the Spartans in 2024. Big Ten play kicks off with Ohio State and newcomer Oregon in back-to-back weeks. That is followed by games against Iowa and rival Michigan. The Spartans could easily find themselves in a 0-4 hole in the conference very quickly. The expectations are low for next year. It will take some time for Smith and his staff to build the roster and the culture of the program. While 2024 may be rough, the program seems to be heading in the right direction.

Getting Aidan Chiles is a huge win for the Spartans. 2024 might be rough but the future is looking bright in East Lansing.
