An offseason full of attrition at Michigan State continued this weekend with two Spartan players announcing their intentions to leave East Lansing for junior college programs.
Sophomore safety Kenney Lyke told ESPN on Saturday that he planned to transfer to Mississippi Delta Community College in hopes of eventually landing at an SEC school in the future. A day earlier, Michigan State confirmed that redshirt sophomore Kaleel Gaines was also leaving the program.
Lyke and Gaines both played sparingly during their only season on the field at Michigan State. With their departures, that's seven former Spartans who have left East Lansing for various reasons since the end of a disappointing 3-9 season last fall.
