INDIANAPOLIS — It was a wild two or three hours over the early summer when the unthinkable happened — twice.
It’s pretty rare that you see players switch rivalries anywhere in college football, but in particular, when it comes to any of Michigan’s rivalries, you don’t often see much movement to or from the Wolverines with the Spartans or Buckeyes. Yet, we not only saw an MSU player transfer to Michigan, but only a few hours later, a Michigan player transferred to MSU.
The reception from either fan base was wild. When safety Jaden Mangham defected from East Lansing to Ann Arbor, the Michigan fans were joyous while the MSU fans were salty. However, when linebacker Semaj Bridgeman went the other way, the MSU fans were understandably joyous, while the chorus of most Michigan fans tended to be mostly congratulatory.

That’s something that Michigan graduate safety Makari Paige noticed.
Paige is a Michigan native, so he’s well-versed in the rivalry. So when the two players switched sides of the rivalry, he noticed how not only the fans but also teammates of both reacted. He shared more at Big Ten media days last month.
“It ain’t really weird to me at all. I mean, I don’t know, I don’t feel a certain way about it at all. But maybe they do more so — not us,” Paige said. “Like Semaj leaving go to Michigan State, it was like, ‘Congrats, bro!’ because like, ain’t no hate like that, you know I’m saying?
“But (Mangham) coming over here, he told me that guys on the team probably talk down on whatever. I saw on Twitter, somebody said something about him like, ‘He’s soft anyways!’ Like, he was your teammate two days ago, so how is he soft now? You know what I’m saying? Like, kind of brotherhood is that? Yeah, I don’t know.”
Now Mangham is a Wolverine and Bridgeman is a Spartan — even if it’s inexplicable. But what does Mangham bring to the table for the maize and blue?

Days before the start of fall camp, Paige shared what he knows of his new teammate in the defensive backfield.
“(Takeaway ability), for sure,” Paige said. “I didn’t really watch him much (at MSU) but he could get the ball out the air, for sure. Not scared to hit at all. Yeah, definitely somebody that we need in our backfield.”
When MSU comes to Ann Arbor in October, the battle for the Paul Bunyan Trophy certainly is going to have even more of an added emphasis given the teammate swapping we’ve seen of late.

SHELBY TOWNSHIP, Mich. – A Shelby Township woman stopped for some pizza and a Michigan Lottery ticket during her lunch break. Then, she won a $822,159 Club Keno The Jack prize.
Sue Strong, 65, matched her easy pick The Jack number, 10-26-33-50-56-58-60-67-70, to nine of the 20 Club Keno numbers that were drawn in draw 2569809, according to the Michigan Lottery.
“I regularly play Club Keno, and I always add The Jack to my ticket,” said Strong. “I went out and bought a Club Keno ticket and pizza on my lunch break and then watched the drawings on my phone while I ate. When I saw all my The Jack numbers come in and the jackpot reset to $10,000, I was shocked! It was nerve wracking and exciting, and to be honest, I’ve hardly slept since!”
The lucky player purchased her winning ticket at Party Palace Liquor Inc., at 49133 Schoenherr Road in Shelby Township.

She plans to share her prize money with her family, pay bills and then save the rest.
This is the largest The Jack prize a player has ever won on the Club Keno game.
The previous record was set in March 2025, when a player won $677,141 from a ticket purchased at JP’s Trolley Stop in Taylor.
The Jack is an optional add-on to a Club Keno ticket that costs $1 per draw.
When playing The Jack, participants receive nine quick-pick numbers and try to match them with the numbers drawn in Club Keno. Prizes range from $1 up to the jackpot, which begins at $10,000 and increases until claimed. To hit the jackpot, all nine numbers must be matched.
