Michigan State football's Charles Brantley withdrew his name from the transfer portal on Tuesday morning, less than 48 hours after entering it.
The 6-foot, 170-pound Brantley, who snagged the game-clinching interception in the Spartans’ win over Michigan in 2021, has two years of eligibility remaining. He finished last season with 48 tackles while starting 11 games and the only interception by the MSU secondary – a pick-6 against C.J. Stroud and Ohio State.
Like Coleman, Brantley was in uniform but sat out the Spartans’ final spring practice that was open to the public April 15. Both were part of Mel Tucker’s 2021 recruiting class. Brantley is the fourth player in Tucker’s tenure to test the portal and return to MSU. Connor Heyward entered during Mark Dantonio’s final season in 2019 but opted to remain a Spartan after Tucker was hired in early 2020; linebackers Ben VanSumeren and Ma’a Gaoteote did the same last spring.
Dillon Tatum, a true freshman last fall, started at cornerback in the Spartans’ season finale at Penn State with Brantley out and injured. Senior Justin White and junior Marqui Lowery also returns with experience, and Tucker added Wisconsin transfer Semar Melvin from the portal this winter. Other young cornerbacks who are expected to compete for playing time include redshirt freshmen Caleb Coley and Ade Willie as well as true freshman Chance Rucker.
