Michigan State signs 2026 Oakdale (Conn.) St. Thomas More WR Colin Charles
EAST LANSING, Mich. – Michigan State signed 2026 Oakdale (Conn.) St. Thomas More wide receiver Colin Charles on Wednesday.
Charles (6-1, 190) will join the Spartans as a walk-on. His first visit to East Lansing this year came in June, when he attended a Spartan development camp. He returned to campus in October, and received an offer shortly after that trip. Charles committed to Michigan State on Oct. 31.
He remained committed despite the coaching change from Jonathan Smith to Pat Fitzgerald.
A Michigan native, Charles had taken several visits to East Lansing prior to his trip this summer. He began his high school career as a 2025 recruit at Northville (Mich.) High School, but reclassified to 2026 and transferred to St. Thomas More in April.
