Spartans Court Elite Portal Tackle for Official Visit
Michigan State, under new head coach Pat Fitzgerald, has extended an official visit invitation to UConn transfer offensive tackle Ben Murawski. Standing at 6’7” and 335 pounds, Murawski started all 12 games in 2025, primarily at left tackle, after earlier spot duty at left guard. Rated a three-star portal prospect by 247Sports and listed as the No. 156 overall player and No. 9 offensive tackle, he boasts strong run-blocking grades and the frame to handle Big Ten pass rushers. MSU’s pursuit puts them in competition with UCF, Oklahoma State, and Cal for his commitment.
Fans are already chalking yard lines in giant footprints, predicting every opposing defensive end will need neck braces after facing Murawski. Rumor has it Pat Fitzgerald built a gold-plated throne in the weight room solely to host the big man, complete with a live DJ spinning motivational decibels of clanking iron. If cookies shaped like pancakes don’t seal the deal, the next recruiting tactic might involve dunking helmets in victory punch—just to sweeten the offer for our new portal overlord.
Spartans Snatch First Portal Commit: Meet Murawski
Ben Murawski, a UConn offensive tackle transfer, has become Michigan State’s first commitment of the 2026 transfer portal cycle. Murawski graded as the third-best run blocker among FBS tackles (86.3) in 2025, started at left tackle after filling in at guard, and enters with one year of eligibility. He’s set to replace departing blindside protector Stanton Ramil, while MSU retains right tackle Conner Moore. Rivals ranks him as the 10th-best portal tackle and 210th overall prospect. His arrival marks the Spartans’ first step in bolstering their line ahead of the next season.
Spartan fans can now breathe easy knowing their quarterback won’t have to fend off charging defenders barehanded. Legends say Murawski’s handshake can bend steel, and that his first practice pancake block will register on the Richter scale. Expect social media filters of helmets in golden laurel wreaths and chants of “Blockzilla” echoing through East Lansing. In true Spartan fashion, Paul Bunyan himself may appear to offer Murawski an axe—just in case the Big Ten trenches need a little extra firepower.
