10) QB Robby Ashford (South Carolina -> Wake Forest)
Robby Ashford has bounced around throughout his collegiate career, with his most recent stop being in South Carolina as the Gamecocks' backup. However, the dual-threat quarterback capitalized on the opportunities he had throughout the season, which led to him entering the portal for one last hope at a starting job elsewhere. As a result, he lands at Wake Forest, where he'll have the chance to compete for the starting job.

1) WR Zachariah Branch (USC -> Georgia)
Zachariah Branch became a top priority in the transfer portal after announcing his decision to leave USC after another lackluster season for the Trojans. The former five-star had plenty of top teams pursuing him, but he saw fit in the SEC with a chance to contend for a championship with Kirby Smart and the Bulldogs. With Branch joining UGA, it'll be interesting to see if the fresh start will allow the wideout to reach his potential.

2) QB Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele (Oregon -> Cal)
Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele originally committed to Cal out of high school before flipping his commitment to Oregon. However, after careful consideration, the talented quarterback entered the transfer portal following the Duck's loss to Ohio State on New Year's Day. Now, the Hawaii native finally lands with the Golden Bears.
3) IOL James Brockermeyer (TCU -> Miami)
James Brockermeyer spent multiple seasons at TCU, proving to be a reliable offensive lineman with the Horned Frogs. After entering the portal, Brockermeyer quickly gained interest in the market. Following interest from multiple teams, the offensive lineman lands at Miami.
4) WR Squirrel White (Tennessee -> Florida State)
Squirrel White entered the transfer portal after a down year at Tennessee this season. However, with teams banking on the wideout returning to his 2023 self, he garnered plenty of interest in the portal. Nonetheless, after visiting Florida State, White felt that Mike Norvell and the Seminoles were the best fit for his development.
5) EDGE Marvin Jones Jr. (Florida State -> Oklahoma)
Marvin Jones Jr. initially committed to Georgia before transferring to Florida State, looking to take a leap after struggling to see the field with the Bulldogs. After another lackluster season with the Seminoles, the talented edge rusher entered the portal again. Now, he lands with Brent Venables in Oklahoma.

Malachi Nelson committed to USC as a five-star prospect out of high school. After losing out on the starting job, the quarterback entered the portal looking for a fresh start, where he landed at Boise State. Fast-forward a year later, and Nelson transfers to UTEP, where he hopes to turn his luck around after missing another opportunity with the Broncos.
7) WR Agiye Hall (UCF -> Sacramento State)
Agiye Hall transferred to UCF in the offseason but never officially joined the roster. The former five-star prospect was heavily recruited with high potential, but he's struggled to showcase it. He has landed with Sacramento State, hoping a smaller program will allow him to put his talent together on film.
8) DL David Gusta (Washington State -> Kentucky)
David Gusta made a name for himself on the Washington State Cougars defensive line. The versatile defender had multiple teams pursuing him, but he landed in the SEC with Kentucky. Gusta will get the chance to impact the trenches for the Wildcats in 2025.
9) DL Travis Shaw (North Carolina -> Texas)
Travis Shaw spent multiple seasons at North Carolina where he proved to be a reliable part of the Tar Heels defensive line. Following the coaching change, the North Carolina native felt it was in his best interest to get a fresh start. Landing at Texas, the lineman will get the opportunity to compete in the SEC for a championship contender.
