<a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/cfb/players/jack-pyburn/44083">Jack Pyburn</a> spent three seasons at Florida, where he emerged as a premiere defender this year. The Florida native finished the season with 60 tackles, one sack, one forced fumble, and an interception. Now, he hits the portal with many suitors for his services.

<a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/cfb/players/sage-ryan/51370">Sage Ryan</a> is one of the more recent entries to the transfer portal, but he'll quickly have teams lining up for his talents. The starting safety has spent four seasons at LSU, where he's proven to be a more than reliable defender in the secondary for the Tigers.

<a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/cfb/players/jaden-barnes/47657">Jaden Barnes</a> emerged as a big time playmaker for Austin Peay in his sophomore season with the team. The wideout finished the year with 1,066 receiving yards and nine touchdowns. Now, he enters the portal to prove he can make the same impact for a top program.

3) WR Jaden Barnes, Austin Peay

<a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/cfb/players/malachi-nelson/23506">Malachi Nelson</a> committed to USC as a five-star prospect out of high school. The quarterback transferred to Boise State last offseason hoping to earn the starting spot and prove he could compete at the collegiate level. However, after failing to earn the starting role, Nelson finds himself back in the portal a year later, looking for a program to give him that opportunity.

4) QB Malachi Nelson, Boise State

https://sg-images-bucket.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/USATSI_24379696-scaled-e1734035597175-768x432.jpg

<a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/cfb/players/grady-kelly/19640">Grady Kelly</a> transferred to Florida State last offseason after multiple dominant seasons at Colorado State. However, Kelly didn't get the chance to make as big of an impact as he'd hoped with the Seminoles during their 2-10 season. The defensive lineman hits the portal again, looking for another fresh start.

5) DL Grady Kelly, Florida State

https://sg-images-bucket.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/USATSI_24832658-scaled-e1734034572651-768x432.jpg

<a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/cfb/players/ryan-turner/20727">Ryan Turner</a> transferred to Boston College last offseason after spending two years at Ohio State. This season, the six-foot corner back racked up 13 tackles, four pass defenses, two sacks, and an interception.

6) CB Ryan Turner, Boston College

https://sg-images-bucket.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/USATSI_21927741-scaled-e1734035754206-768x432.jpg

<a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/cfb/players/nathan-leacock/38606">Nathan Leacock</a> committed to Tennessee as a four-star prospect in his recruiting class. In his freshman season with the Volunteers, the wideout struggled to earn a role on the field. Leacock hits the portal looking for a more prominent role, and plenty of suitors will gladly give him that.

7) WR Nathan Leacock, Tennessee

https://sg-images-bucket.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/USATSI_24614055-scaled-e1734036217291-768x432.jpg

<a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/cfb/players/dylan-lonergan/19377">Dylan Lonergan</a> committed to Alabama as a four-star recruit out of high school. As expected, the quarterback never got to start for the Crimson Tide, competing in a talented quarterback room. Now, Lonergan hits the portal to prove he can lead his own team.

8) QB Dylan Lonergan, Alabama

https://sg-images-bucket.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/USATSI_24131265-scaled-e1734036566335-768x432.jpg

<a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/cfb/players/maverick-mcivor/43607">Maverick McIvor</a> has spent three years at Abilene Christian, where he emerged as a true pocket passer during his third season. The quarterback tossed 30 touchdowns and seven interceptions this season. McIvor will have an opportunity to find a role elsewhere with a more competitive program.

9) QB Maverick McIvor, Abilene Christian

https://sg-images-bucket.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/USATSI_22930236-scaled-e1734036019855-768x432.jpg

<a href="https://www.sportsgrid.com/cfb/players/aj-green/47862">AJ Green</a> spent three seasons at Arkansas, where he committed as a four-star recruit out of high school. The running back totaled 951 rushing yards and six touchdowns with the Razorbacks before transferring to Oklahoma State in the offseason last year. However, after not playing a single snap for the Cowboys this season, the Oklahoma native again hits the portal.
