Coach Jonathan Smith continues to try his best to rebuild Michigan State's defensive line. However, the Spartans still have a long way to go.

Michigan State and Coach Jonathan Smith suffered a significant loss earlier in the offseason when nearly 20 scholarship players entered the transfer portal simultaneously. Arguably, the position on the Spartans’ roster impacted the most was the defensive line, which saw two starters with the potential to play on the next level enter the portal.

247Sports’ Cody Nagel ranks the Spartans’ defensive line -- consisting of defensive ends Khris Bogle, Quindarius Dunnigan, Avery Dunn, Anthony Jones, Jalen Thompson, and defensive tackles D'Quan Douse, Maverick Hansen, and Ben Roberts -- as the 16th-best defensive line out of the 18 teams in the Big Ten.

“The new coaching staff did turn to the portal again in May to reload some of the depth across the defensive line. Dunnigan arrives at Michigan State after a career-best season at Middle Tennessee in 2023. He earned Second Team All-Conference USA honors after registering ten tackles for loss, three sacks, and eight pass breakups.”
