Northeastern transfer Tyson Walker commits to Michigan State

After a season full of frustration at the point guard position, Michigan State further solidified the spot on Saturday.

Tyson Walker, a transfer from Northeastern, announced on Twitter he had committed to Michigan State, selecting the Spartans over Kansas, Maryland, Texas, Vanderbilt and Miami.

“I’ll be able to develop my personal game while competing for a national title," Walker told Stockrisers.com. "It doesn’t get better than that.”

Walker averaged 18.8 points and 4.8 assists a game as a sophomore at Northeastern and was named the Colonial Athletic Association’s Defensive Player of the Year while also earning first-team all-conference honors.
