East Lansing — Jacoby Windmon was back home on Saturday afternoon, and his return couldn’t have come at a better time for Michigan State.
Home, of course, is at linebacker, the position Windmon thrived at last season for UNLV and the one he expected to play when he transferred in the offseason to Michigan State. However, with his ability to rush the passer and, at the time some frustration with the overall pass rush, the Spartans coaches made the move late in preseason camp to shift Windmon full-time to defensive end, a position he’d played earlier in his career at UNLV.
