Ex-MSU RB Madre London heading to Tennessee

The Detroit News

Madre London has a new home.

The former Michigan State running back, who last month announced he would be pursuing a graduate transfer, revealed Sunday night on Twitter that he’ll be heading to Tennessee.

The 6-foot-1, 218-pound London was the Spartans’ third-leading rusher last season with 304 yards and three touchdowns. He also caught nine passes for 62 yards and a touchdown.

In three seasons at Michigan State, London rushed for 924 yards (4.0 yards a carry) and eight touchdowns in 33 career games.

At Tennessee, London will join a backfield that must replace Oak Park product John Kelly, who led the Volunteers in rushing last season with 778 yards and nine touchdowns.
