Michigan State adds transfer portal OL Luka Vincic
Michigan State added its second portal commitment of Sunday afternoon in former Oregon State offensive lineman Luka Vincic. He announced his commitment via social media.

Vincic (6-5, 300) played in 10 games (344 snaps) at both center and guard for the Beavers this fall. He started two games at center for Oregon State. Vincic also played in 10 games as a redshirt freshman in 2023. He saw action in two games as a true freshman in 2022.
Vincic will reunite with Michigan State offensive line coach Jim Michalczik and head coach Jonathan Smith in East Lansing. Michalczik and Smith earned Vincic’s high school commitment while they were at Oregon State.
Vincic committed to the Beavers as a three-star high school prospect out of Bothell (Wash.) High School. He was the No. 842 prospect and No. 13 player from Washington in the 2022 class, per the On3 Industry Rankings.
Vincic is a three-star transfer prospect, per the On3 Transfer Portal Industry Rankings. He was the No. 918 player in the portal.

RELATED: Michigan State lands transfer portal WR Omari Kelly
Michigan State will have to replace graduating interior offensive line seniors Tanner Miller (center), Luke Newman (guard) and Brandon Baldwin (tackle/guard) this offseason. Former reserve guard Dallas Fincher transferred to San Diego State, too.
The Spartans will return a handful of young scholarship guards, including redshirt sophomores Kristian Phillips and Gavin Broscious and redshirt freshman Cole Dellinger. All three missed a majority of 2024 season due to injury. True freshmen Rakeem Johnson, Andrew Dennis, Charlton Luniewski all projected as guards coming out of high school, although Johnson featured at tackle some this fall.
Michigan State also signed three-star California interior offensive lineman Drew Nichols on Dec. 4. True freshmen walk-ons Kyler Brunan and Hayden Lorius could also play guard.
The Spartans and Michalczik will look to add at least two more portal offensive linemen this offseason. Michigan State has hosted three additional portal linemen in former Northwestern starter and Fenton, Mich., native Josh Thompson, former Stanford tackle Luke Baklenko and former Western Carolina interior lineman Caleb Carter.
Michigan State is also rumored to be on former Virginia Tech offensive lineman Braelin Moore‘s visit list, according to On3’s Pete Nakos. Moore will also visit LSU.
