01/28/23 - Jalen Mitchell, rSr/2025, Transfer + More +

The UConn football team added to its list of new players via the transfer portal, getting running back Jalen Mitchell from Louisville. It's an important get for the Huskies, who lost their No. 1 back of a year ago, Nathan Carter, to Michigan State through the portal. Carter, and several other running backs were lost to injuries last season, underscoring the need for depth at the position. Mitchell was Louisville's top running back in 2021, gaining 722 yards for five touchdowns, catching 12 passes for another 121 yards. But he sustained a leg injury early in 2022 and never got back in the mix, carrying only 10 times for 48 yards. During three years as a Cardinal, Mitchell, 5 feet 10 and 214 pounds, had a knack for gaining yardage after contact, and averaged 5.14 yards over 217 carries From Rockledge, Fla., Mitchell was rated a three-star running back out of high school. At UConn, he will have two years eligibility and join Victor Rosa, from Bristol Central, who will be a sophomore, Devontae Houston and Brian Brewton, among others, in competition for carries. - Hartford Courant

01/19/23 - Demouy Kennedy, rSr/2025, Transfer + More +

Alabama inside linebacker Demouy Kennedy entered the NCAA transfer portal on Tuesday, On3 Sports reported. Kennedy, a junior who played at Theodore High School, was the No. 39 overall-rated player in 247 Sports' composite ranking of the 2020 recruiting class. Kennedy tore his ACL during an Oct. 1 game at Arkansas and missed the remainder of the season.

The 6-foot-3, 220-pound Kennedy worked primarily on special teams in three seasons for Alabama. He appeared in 23 games, all as a reserve. Some of his playing time in 2021 came as a running back after injuries at that position thinned Alabama's depth. Undergraduate players have until Wednesday to enter the portal under the NCAA's new transfer portal window, which opened for 45 days beginning Dec. 5. It will re-open April 15-30, although players transferring as graduates can enter at any time. - Birmingham News

Former Florida State wide receiver Malik McClain announced that he was transferring to Penn State to continue his college career.

However, McClain struggled to put it all together and wasn't guaranteed a major role this upcoming season with 11 other scholarship receivers still on the roster. - Tomahawknation.com

01/18/23 - Shadeed Ahmed, rSr/2025, Transfer + More +

The transfer portal gives and it takes. The Marshall football team has already gotten commitments from a handful of transfers who entered the portal in the past year, but has now lost 12 players from the 2022 roster who have made the decision to separate from the Herd. Shadeed Ahmed, a wide receiver who caught 60 passes for 651 yards and four touchdowns in three seasons at Marshall, officially announced his decision to enter the transfer portal Sunday afternoon, marking the 12th transfer Charles Huff has seen exit the program since the end of the 2022 regular season.

Ahmed followed in the footsteps of eleven former teammates, including quarterback Peter Zamora, offensive lineman Jack Murphy, defensive backs Jaydyn Johnson, Demarco Gibson and Hagan Stephenson, linebackers Dan Foster and James Smyre, defensive linemen Emmanuel Balogun, Immanuel Bush and Sherman Hatton and kicker Kenyon Bowyer. Of those transfers, seven have already found new homes, including three that transferred to teams within the Sun Belt. - Charleston Gazette

01/18/23 - Tyrin Smith, rSr/2025, Transfer + More +

After tearing up Conference USA as a sophomore in 2022, UTEP wide receiver Tyrin Smith entered the NCAA Transfer Portal on Monday. Smith made the announcement on his social media pages, thanking the university and the city of El Paso in doing so. The Cibolo, Texas, native has two years of NCAA eligibility remaining. Smith broke out in 2022 for UTEP, catching 71 passes for 1,039 yards and seven touchdowns as the Miners went 5-7, narrowly missing out on a second straight trip to a bowl game.

This is the second year in a row that Smith has entered the Portal; he went in last offseason, before electing to return to UTEP. It's also the second season in a row that the Miners will lose their top two wide receivers (Rey Flores graduated in 2022). In 2021, UTEP lost Jacob Cowing (transferred to Arizona) and Justin Garrett (graduation). - KTSM

01/15/23 - Dannis Jackson, rSr/2025, Transfer + More +

Missouri football landed a commitment from a former four-star wide receiver on Saturday, when Dannis Jackson announced his plans to join the Tigers through the transfer portal. Jackson spent his first three seasons at Ole Miss. "Committed to The Zou," Jackson said in a social media post announcing his intentions. Jackson became the second transfer receiver to commit to Missouri, following Theo Wease, previously of Oklahoma. The Tigers will hope those two, along with returning players like Luther Burden III and Mehki Miller, can help replace the production of Dominic Lovett, who led MU in receiving last season before transferring to Georgia.

Missouri wide receivers coach Jacob Peeler originally recruited Jackson for the Rebels. Jackson was rated as a four-star high school prospect out of Sumrall in Mississippi by the 247Sports composite and chose Ole Miss over a wealth of offers including Mississippi State, Arkansas and Auburn. Jackson did not play last season after entering the transfer portal in September. His best year as a Rebel came in 2021, when he had 12 catches for 244 yards and two touchdowns. - Columbia Daily Tribune

LSU sophomore edge rusher Zavier Carter entered the NCAA transfer portal Thursday, according to multiple reports. Carter would have competed to replace BJ Ojulari as the starting Jack linebacker after appearing in 11 games. He made his first career sack in the Citrus Bowl. A four-star recruit from Atlanta, Carter played in 18 games over two seasons. He recorded nine tackles, one pass breakup and one forced fumble. He has two years of eligibility. Both of Ojulari's backups this season, Carter and redshirt junior Desmond Little, have entered the transfer portal. The Tigers brought in Oregon transfer Bradyn Swinson and five-star Da'Shawn Womack at the position. - Baton Rouge Advocate

01/13/23 - Michael Alaimo, rSr/2025, Transfer + More +

Freshman Purdue QB Brady Allen put his name in the transfer portal prior to the Citrus Bowl, a decision that made sense after Texas transfer Hudson Card committed to Purdue on Dec. 26. On Jan. 9, Allen, the 2021 Indiana Mr. Football winner after leading Gibson Southern to a Class 3A state championship, was reportedly returning to Purdue with four years of eligibility remaining. One day later, Purdue quarterback Michael Alaimo, who threw his first career touchdown in the Citrus Bowl, announced he's entering the transfer portal. Alaimo was speculated to be entering the transfer portal once the Purdue football season concluded. Card is likely penciled in as the 2023 opening-day starter and Allen obviously believes he can compete for the job as well. - Lafayette Journal & Courier
