Mississippi State quarterback Michael Van Buren enters transfer portal
SUMMARY: After Blake Shapen’s return to Mississippi State, freshman quarterback Michael Van Buren, Jr. entered the transfer portal. Van Buren, who started eight games after Shapen’s season-ending injury, received praise from fans, with some advocating for him as the future starter. In a heartfelt social media post, he expressed gratitude to the program and staff, announcing his decision after careful consideration. Last season, he passed for 1,886 yards, 11 touchdowns, and five rushing touchdowns, despite the team’s disappointing 2-10 record. The transfer portal remains open until December 28, with high-profile programs potentially interested in Van Buren.
