The 6-foot-1, 250-pound Brantley Jr. chose the Buffaloes over Arkansas, Auburn, Louisville, NC State, Ole Miss, Penn State, Pittsburgh, Purdue and South Carolina.

He is the second Valdosta player this week to commit to Sanders and Co., joining four-star defensive lineman Omar White.

Brantley Jr. currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $22K. The On3 NIL Valuation is an index that looks to set the standard market value for both high school and college-level athletes. The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.
