Michigan State has relied heavily on transfer running backs to power its ground game during Mel Tucker's tenure as head coach. This year will be no exception. Transfer running backs Jaren Mangham and Nathan Carter, however, are giving Michigan State more than offensive production. Both Mangham and Carter are emerging as leaders in the running backs room. That could pay dividends on the field this fall.
