3 Michigan State Football players under investigation for sexual assault

That's 3 of their top 8 recruits from 2016 gone, including #1 and #3. There are other players leaving as well. Seems like it's affecting the 2018 class too.

Forgot to mentioned the #2 recruit in the 2016 class (Auston Robertson) was kicked off the team a month or so ago for sexual assault. So that is the #1,2,3 and #8 recruits from that class are now gone.

 
A blog compiled the MSU attrition info.

"The number of players MSU has lost to offseason attrition is truly prodigious:

  • OL Thiyo Lukusa: quits team, says he's giving up football, ends up at JUCO.
  • S Drake Martinez: probably a playing time transfer
  • DE Donovan Winter: dropped after armed burglary charge
  • LB Jon Reshcke: dropped N-bomb on teammate
  • WR Donnie Corley: charged with criminal sexual conduct
  • DE Josh King: charged with criminal sexual conduct
  • S Demetric Vance: charged with criminal sexual conduct
  • DE Auston Robertson, charged with criminal sexual conduct
  • DT Cassius Peat: probably not qualified?
  • CB Kaleel Gaines: JUCO transfer, academics related?
  • S Kenney Lyke: another JUCO transfer, academics related?
That might not be it, either. MSU's Scout site reported that CB Vayante Copeland and DE Robert Bowers were gone as well; ... Add in the dismal finish to MSU's 2017 class and they're going to go into this season with a roster as depleted as a sanctioned PSU program was a few years back."

Drake should have stuck around, his chances of increased playing time would have gone up
