Add another to the list of rivalry portal pickups.
Michigan State football landed Michigan transfer wide receiver Fredrick Moore on Friday, Jan. 9, according to multiple reports. The 6-foot-1, 181-pound native of St. Louis, Missouri, played in four games this season as a junior for the Wolverines and registered one special teams tackle as his only stat. He left the team in October to preserve a redshirt.

Moore joins a growing group of players who have crossed enemy lines in the MSU-U-M rivalry. Two players who recently switched sides – safety Jaden Mangham from the Spartans to Wolverines and linebacker Semaj Bridgeman from Ann Arbor to East Lansing before the 2024 season – both re-entered the portal this year. Mangham has since joined Purdue, his third Big Ten program.
