He’s a perfect MSU candidate to experience an increased head size and add 20 pounds, miraculously.
February 20th, 2021 at 12:08 PM ^
All in the same place! Lol
February 20th, 2021 at 3:21 PM ^
He will live to regret this.
February 20th, 2021 at 12:05 PM ^
Welp, something went really wrong somewhere.
February 20th, 2021 at 12:16 PM ^
He is just the Player To Be Named Later in the Edward Warriner Jr trade.
February 20th, 2021 at 1:48 PM ^
I don’t know if I like that trade. Or trading with MSU on anything.
February 20th, 2021 at 2:25 PM ^
We should’ve known he was a Sparty when he was boasting about his 42 inch vertical on Twitter out of nowhere. Odd boast - seemingly coming from a place of insecurity
February 20th, 2021 at 2:40 PM ^
That was his brother, who decommitted from michigan..
im sure his brother will commit to MSU also
February 20th, 2021 at 2:44 PM ^
This is incorrect. BVS tweeted about his 42.5” vertical on 2/8/21. AVS did retweet it, though.
February 20th, 2021 at 2:40 PM ^
If I had a 41” vertical, I might MAKE a Twitter just to brag about it - who knows...
February 20th, 2021 at 2:57 PM ^
No kidding. It's not like college athletes never promote themselves.

VanSumeran couldn't get into Thee Ohio so he is off to Staee
February 20th, 2021 at 12:19 PM ^
He's been summering with them.
February 20th, 2021 at 5:27 PM ^
Van Summering

At Mattison's lake house.

I heard it was a Van down by the river
February 20th, 2021 at 4:00 PM ^
don't go there I heard her say
you can't stomach what you're going to see
It's down there, by the water's edge
wasted and bloated and waiting for someone else
February 20th, 2021 at 4:12 PM ^

Does anyone worry that these type of grad transfer involve understanding playbooks, intricacies of the team, that give a rival an advantage? Did they take him just to have the defector help them with that one game? Wait, they won last year anyways. Nevermind.
February 20th, 2021 at 12:17 PM ^
Well it will be a totally new defensive scheme, so no. They did this to get the inside track on his brother. Good riddance.
February 20th, 2021 at 1:33 PM ^
MSU took him because he has talent and they lose Simmons, don’t they? Of course they want a chance at his brother, but it is more about Ben reaching out to them and going there that’s shitty. Either BS has a beef with 〽️or MSU is the only P5 offer he was getting.
February 20th, 2021 at 1:58 PM ^
Or he didn’t expect playing time here & wanted to remain close to his family.
February 20th, 2021 at 2:03 PM ^
How would he not have played here? Have you seen our LB depth?
February 20th, 2021 at 8:11 PM ^
Have YOU seen our LB depth? We had a bunch of young guys that weren’t ready to play yet. They’re expected to be ready moving forward which would likely cut into the playing time of a former fullback that’s playing linebacker. Same reason a walk-on that replaced the injured McGrone is also leaving.
Michigan has a LOT of highly regarded, young linebackers right now.
February 20th, 2021 at 8:14 PM ^
I'm glad to read this because I wasn't aware of it. For some reason I had thought most transfered out.
February 20th, 2021 at 2:22 PM ^
I assume it's the latter. He was a bit of a reach coming out of HS - his only other P5 offer listed for Iowa - and so it makes sense the other in-state school wants him esp. if they feel it gives them an inside track on his brother.
February 20th, 2021 at 4:47 PM ^
Don't you dare call him a reach. People hammered me telling me how awesome he was when I said I'm tired of JH recruiting a kid just because "HE'S A FOOTBAWL PLAYER!!"
February 21st, 2021 at 10:00 AM ^
He is bringing Harbaugh’s two minute offense from his time spent with the offense.
February 20th, 2021 at 12:44 PM ^
Do our players, or even coaches for that matter, know our own playbook? We can't even figure out who's calling the plays at least on offense. Who knows if BVS is going to play offense or defense.
February 20th, 2021 at 3:09 PM ^
They can have our playbooks. We can't even figure out what our team is doing, maybe they can figure it out for us. Hopefully they steal the section where we put linebackers on islands against 4.4 receivers.
February 20th, 2021 at 12:12 PM ^
Playing time
February 20th, 2021 at 2:25 PM ^
Or maybe even just knows that he isn't destined for the NFL and couldn't get into a grad program that he actually wanted at Michigan.
People have their reasons. Playing time in his last great chance to be a football player is a great one.
Wanting to be near home in the current circumstances can be one too. As can wanting to be near your older brother for Alex. None of it is surprising. I'd even love to believe that the culture at MSU could change, and that they've seen evidence of that, but that feels like stretching credulity at this point.
February 20th, 2021 at 9:38 PM ^
So you’re saying: hospitality management here he comes?
February 20th, 2021 at 12:15 PM ^
BVS - we thought we loved ye! Prepare for football vengeance...
February 20th, 2021 at 12:44 PM ^
Don’t make promises that Harbaugh can only keep 50% of the time.
Honestly this is not a bad move for him. If there is one thing that MSU has specialized in, it’s getting the most out of 2-3*’s with a chip on their shoulder. If BVS thinks he is a valid D1 player this is probably a good option for him and maybe his only one. MSU has two empty recruiting years so he’ll get his chances there. I don’t think this effects us at all though.
February 20th, 2021 at 1:13 PM ^
You can put your trust in meL and MSU, I will stick with Michigan to show BVS his folly
February 20th, 2021 at 1:13 PM ^
Perhaps this will be a turning point: B efore VS and A fter VS.
February 20th, 2021 at 1:42 PM ^
it's traitorous though. obviously a guy that doesn't give two shits about rivalries. can't believe that is his only option. more and more we are living in a ME world.
February 20th, 2021 at 2:32 PM ^
There are two P5 programs in this state, and BVS left one for the other. It's as simple as that if you want to be near family.
And save me this BS about loyalty. UM flipped two MSU commits this year and took Warinner's kid from MSU last year. Don't remember people calling them traitors and selfish.
February 20th, 2021 at 2:39 PM ^
Absolutely, he has every right to make this move. We also have every right to enjoy the heck out of dominating his team for the rest of his tenure there.
February 20th, 2021 at 3:08 PM ^
Thanks bronxblue for bringing up the fact that 2 MSU recruits flipped to Michigan. It's impossible to be perfect in today's football carousel.
February 20th, 2021 at 12:18 PM ^
The Chris Frey vibes are strong with this one. See you in the woodshed.
February 21st, 2021 at 11:20 AM ^
Or behind it
February 20th, 2021 at 12:19 PM ^
If AVS ends up at MSU then I will believe very strongly, as I stated when he first decommitted, that Michigan cooled on him, and BVS was reacting to that (remember that there was talk that Justin Boren was pissed that Michigan didn't recruit his brother/hence the family value part).
Call me a Homer all you want. This is an extremely odd circumstance.
February 20th, 2021 at 12:39 PM ^
We’ll be fine.
February 20th, 2021 at 12:46 PM ^
Good. When?
