Texas Lands Michigan State Tight End Michael Masunas From Transfer Portal

Overview

  • Masunas announced his commitment on Jan. 5 with a post saying "I'm home," transferring to Texas from Michigan State.
  • He has two seasons of eligibility remaining after a career-best year with 19 receptions for 232 yards and three touchdowns.
  • On3 ranks Masunas No. 20 among tight ends in the portal, positioning him as a notable addition for Steve Sarkisian's offense.
