Class of 2025 three-star tight end Emmett Bork is no longer committed to Michigan State.

He announced on social media on Monday night that he has backed off of his pledge to the Spartans and flipped to Wisconsin.

Bork, out of Oconomowoc High School in Wisconsin, originally committed to Michigan State in May, following an unofficial visit to East Lansing.

He returned to campus several times after that, including for his official visit in June, for "Spartan Dawg Con" in July and for a game-day visit when the Spartans took on Ohio State on Sept. 28.

When he initially committed to Michigan State, Bork cited strong relationships with head coach Jonathan Smith, tight ends coach/recruiting coordinator Brian Wozniak and offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach Brian Lindgren among the reasons he wanted to play for the Spartans.

Now, however, Bork has had a change of heart.

The home-state program, Wisconsin, recently offered Bork a scholarship and things moved quickly after that. Sources tell Spartans Illustrated that Bork was in Madison for each of the Badgers' last two home games, and UW decided it wanted to make the in-state prospect a priority and was able to successfully flip him.

The 6-foot-6, 240-pound Bork is currently unranked by Rivals.

In addition to Michigan State and Wisconsin, Bork received scholarship offers from Appalachian State, Army, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Rutgers and others.

Sources tell Spartans Illustrated that Michigan State will evaluate options at tight end in the 2025 class and make a decision on if the staff will pursue any additional prospects at the position ahead of the early signing period in December.

In-state three-star tight end Jayden Savoury out of Orchard Lake St. Mary's Prep remains committed to the Spartans' 2025 recruiting class.

With Bork no longer pledged, MSU's 2025 class currently includes 15 total commits and ranks 62nd nationally.
