Michigan State PG Manny Tate tells media transfer rumors are fake, and that he tore ACL in practice

Michigan State senior point guard Manny Tate took to his social media to explain a few things Monday night. Tate said that his transfer rumors are fake. It was reported by TN Michigan that Tate considered transferring to hometown Jacksonville University because fellow point guard (junior Victor Clemens) beat him out for the starting job. Tate did though confirm he had been away from the team for a week to deal with some personal issues and when he did return to practice in East Lansing yesterday, he tore his ACL. Tate said “I would like to confirm that I tore my ACL in practice today. I am expected to make a full recovery and thank you ahead of time for the support I will get through this tough time. I will take a medical redshirt this year and return to play at Michigan State in 2021.”
