5) Ole Miss Rebels
Lane Kiffin and Ole Miss are always involved when it comes to top players in the transfer portal. The Rebels will be a contender in the SEC next season, but they may not be able to offer Justice Haynes the role he's seeking, considering how they've used running backs in the past. However, their reported interest seems to be strong.

Top 5 Landing Spots for RB Justice Haynes in the CFB Transfer Portal
Justice Haynes committed to Alabama as one of the top recruits in his respective class. In two seasons with the Crimson Tide, the running back has racked up 616 rushing yards and nine touchdowns on 5.9 rushing yards per carry. The talent is there, but the lack of opportunity at Bama hasn't been. Now, the playmaker hits the portal, looking for a fresh start elsewhere.

1) South Carolina Gamecocks
South Carolina is a team that reportedly is heavily pursuing the running back. The Gamecocks nearly landed a commitment out of high school before the Georgia native pivoted to Alabama. Nonetheless, as Shane Beamer and his squad prepare to lose Raheim "Rocket" Sanders to the NFL Draft, Justice Haynes could slot in and immediately be poised for massive usage with the Gamecocks. Considering how they helped rejuvenate Sanders's career this past season, this could be an ideal spot for the former four-star. Not to mention the momentum behind South Carolina's program following their end of the season.
2) Michigan Wolverines
Michigan is looking to turn its program back around after a lackluster season in the first year of the Sherrone Moore era. However, the team has the No. 1 player out of high school incoming in Bryce Underwood. With the team set to lose multiple key players in the running back room, they could immediately offer Justice Haynes the role he may be seeking. In addition, the Wolverines have proven to open up the checkbook for players they're interested in.
3) Ohio State Buckeyes
The Ohio State Buckeyes are seemingly always on the market for premiere talent regardless of whether they're loaded at the position. Ryan Day managed to land Quinshon Judkins last offseason in the portal despite having a loaded backfield already. With the Buckeyes set to contend for a national championship every season, that could be enough to entice Justice Haynes to land at OSU.
4) Florida Gators
Billy Napier and the Florida Gators are another SEC squad interested in Justice Haynes. The Gators need a running back, and they could potentially offer one of the more prominent roles out of all of these teams. In addition to their obvious need, they have former five-star recruit DJ Lagway set to take over on offense next year, and following his play this season, that alone is a solid selling point.
5) Ole Miss Rebels
Lane Kiffin and Ole Miss are always involved when it comes to top players in the transfer portal.
