Nathan Carter, UConn RB transfer, commits to Michigan State

Star UConn running back transfer Nathan Carter announced Sunday morning that he would be transferring to Michigan State, perhaps ready to continue the line of talented running backs out of the Spartans program.

Carter had 65 rushes for 405 yards and 1 touchdown this past season, playing in just 4 games following a shoulder separation that caused him to miss the remainder of the year. If he can stay healthy this is an incredible pickup, as he is considered by some to be the best Group of 5 RB on the market.
