Redshirt freshman defensive lineman Cassius Peat has requested and been granted his release to transfer from Michigan State, the football program confirmed today.
A reporter for scout.com says that Peat, an Arizona native, is on the roster at Eastern Arizona College.
Peat had been missing from MSU's preseason camp. Coach Mark Dantonio said last week: "You know, some of our guys, first of all, because you are on scholarship, doesn't guarantee you are in camp, that's number one. Number two, some guys have to take care of academic issues. Third, sometimes people have to make transitions. Right now, (Peat) is sort of in flux.
