Watch Michigan State QB Aidan Chiles connect with new receiver Omari Kelly with a rocket
Year two of the Jonathan Smith era at Michigan State football has arrived, and you can expect a much different team out of East Lansing this year. Part of that is because of the many incoming transfers this staff brought in to reshape the roster to better fit how they want to play. One of those big additions was Omari Kelly, a wide receiver who started his career at Auburn and spent last season at Middle Tennessee State.
Over the weekend, Michigan State quarterback Aidan Chiles was able to find Kelly with an absolute rocket on a deep ball, and it got social media buzzing. Make no mistake about it, Aidan Chiles has one of the best arms in all of college football. He's firmly in the top ten in terms of arm talent, and he might be even higher than that, so it's fun to see him flexing that ability with a new group of receivers that are able to be in the right places at the right times to catch those bombs. By all accounts, Chiles has looked sharp and comfortable in camp so far, which is scary news for opposing teams.

Notre Dame saw On3's Steve Wiltfong predicting to land one of its last 2026 targets
Notre Dame football currently has twenty-six commits in the 2026 recruiting cycle, and while there isn't much room left, there is for at least one more prospect. Elijah Golden is a 6-foot, 4-inch and 275-pound defensive lineman from Florida who will make his commitment on Aug. 9th, deciding between Alabama, Oklahoma, Virginia Tech and the Irish. On3's Steve Wiltfong really likes Notre Dame's chances, as on Monday he put in a projection for Golden to commit to the Blue and Gold. With a frame like his, Golden will most likely play on the interior of the line at the next level, but can also play on the edge if needed. Tiki Hola is the only other prospect that projects inside, so there is a clear need for Notre Dame to add another in this class. The hope is that Wiltfong is correct, and Golden ultimately does select the Irish on Saturday.

MSU hoops lands near middle of Big Ten in power rankings from Andy Katz
College basketball analyst Andy Katz is expecting a notable drop off from the Spartans next season. Katz released updated power rankings for the Big Ten, and he has the Spartans dropping to the middle of the league next year. In his rankings of all 18 Big Ten schools, Katz has the Spartans coming in at No. 7. Ahead of Michigan State is Purdue (No. 1), Michigan (No. 2), Oregon (No. 3), UCLA (No. 4), Illinois (No. 5) and Wisconsin (No. 6). Michigan State won the Big Ten by three games last season and went the deepest of any team from the league in the NCAA Tournament in reaching the Elite Eight. The Spartans, however, have lost a number of key contributors from last year's squad -- including Jaden Akins and Jase Richardson. I personally have Michigan State right around the same spot as Katz but can understand some Spartans fans considering this a slight for the defending conference champs. I wouldn't be surprised if Michigan State surprised some folks again and ended up near the top of the league as we saw this past season. Check out the full video of Katz breaking down his rankings below: Contact/Follow us @The SpartansWire on X (formerly Twitter) and like our page on Facebook to follow ongoing coverage of Michigan State news, notes and opinion.
