Coffman Stands Firm on MSU Commitment

Four-star quarterback Kayd Coffman has reaffirmed his commitment to Michigan State University, despite the recent firing of head coach Jonathan Smith and his entire coaching staff.

His impressive performance in his senior season, including throwing for 2,599 yards with a 65% completion rate and 34 touchdowns, solidifies his status as one of the top prospects in the 2026 class.
