I caught up with Venice (FL) defensive coordinator Larry Shannon, a former NFL wide receiver, to learn more about how Chuck Brantley and Steffan Johnson might fit at MSU.
He told me that both guys have the Dawg in them that you are looking for and that each guy competed against each other daily and made each other better in practice.
Shannon raved about Johnson's athleticism.
Shannon indicated that Brantley is a film nut, who understands what receivers are trying to do with route combinations and is very good at adjusting coverage based on formation. Venice runs a lot of mixed coverages.
