Significant Portal Moves etc..

12 game starter at Tennessee and former JUCO DE Darel Middleton at WVU. That makes two sometimes starters recent transferes out of UT (Middleton and Emerson).

West Virginia has added another transfer addition when Tennessee defensive lineman Darel Middleton announced he had committed to the Mountaineers.
Middleton, 6-foot-6, 280-pounds, came to the Volunteers from the junior college ranks at East Mississippi and put together a strong initial season.

He started 12 games over his two years with the program but took a step back in his second despite showing plenty of promise.
The versatile defensive lineman has the ability to play multiple positions and is likely set to lineup inside for the Mountaineers.
Should have two seasons of eligibility remaining.
 
Old Dominion's only returning CB with starting experience, Geronda Hall is in the portal. 108 tackles, 4 INT and 9 PBU in 22 games
 
Former Syracuse RB Jawhar Jordan to Louisville:

Louisville adds Syracuse RB Jordan comes from Syracuse, where he started all three games that he played in during the 2020 season before going down with an injury. In 2019, his redshirt year, Jordan racked up a career-high 223 all-purpose yards against Louisville. This is a nice pickup late in the process for Scott Satterfield, and adds depth to a position that was already loaded with talent. However, Jordan is smaller and quicker, which should give him a chance to be a change-of-pace running back.
 
17 game starter at S for Ole Miss Jon Hayes has entered portal. He must have seen his PT diminished this year.
 

2020 1st Tm MAC DL from Central Michigan Mohamed Diallo (9.5 tfl) joins a host of previously signed defensive transfers, including 2019 MAC D POY LB Treshan Hayward (B-2-B #1 tackler) from Western Michigan. Arizona has signed a dozen or more transfers from 4 year schools this year. Average for other PAC12 schools is 4.5. Reportedly no other school signed more than 7 (as of 8/13/21).
 
It appears Akron’s leader on OL and most veteran member (30 starts) Bryce Petersen entered the portal Today.
 
2018 LB Charles Hicks has entered the transfer portal coming off his best collegiate season in 2020 with 27 tackles, 3.5 TFL, 2 sacks and 1 INT in 5 games with Wyoming @rivalsmike
Guys, key guys, just quitting less than 2 weeks from season starting. Jeez.
 
Former LSU now OK Tre Bradford no longer with OK
Very strange. Bradford shows up with almost no chance to get any playing time. Then two running backs booted off the team after being arrested. Then two days ago its announced Marcus Major, a very talented back, will miss the year because of academics. It means Bradford is sure to get playing time. So as soon as he is guaranteed playing time he leaves the team

Speculation is he told people he was entering the portal. Problem is he has already used the portal so will have to sit out a year if he moves again.

I imagine TJ Pledger, another very talented back, who entered the portal at the end of last year when the position was stacked is probably second guessing himself.

Only two scholarship RBs left on the team. Both great backs, but the Sooners like to play three backs
 
Basically, he transferred to OU, but LSU kept getting in contact, even after the dad asked them to stop. Said they went behind the family’s back, and kept pumping shit in to his head and he couldn’t get comfortable at OU because of it. Dad is furious and against it, and embarrassed by it. Said his son will learn the hard way.
 
Navy RB/FB Malcom Terry in transfer portal. He was previously named as one of five players offensive players to watch in fall camp, now gone.

I didn't think Navy or Army guys could transfer. I thought the rule was that if they dropped out of the academy they had to enter the regular army.

I've been seeing it more lately. When starting Navy LB Tama Tuitele transferred earlier this month the article said they have a deadline where they have to resign some commitment papers or something as long as they don't sign, before that they can transfer: quote from Capital Gazette story:

Tuitele, like all juniors, is due to sign the two-for-seven papers binding midshipmen to two more years at the Naval Academy and five years of military service. Tuitele can leave the academy with no repercussions before signing those papers before classes start for the fall semester.
 
Auburn DT Tyrone Truesdale who started 19 games for the Tigers the past 2 seasons has landed at Florida and is eligible immediately.
 
Central Michigan All MAC OL Sr Derek Smith has entered transfer portal. Been a part or full time starter every year since 2017, making 29 total starts and 21 in a row.
 
This is not a significant portal move, but Central Michigan has lost another late transfer portal player. Reserve, sometimes starting CB Brian Edwards (3 starts 2020, but saw diminished playing time as the season progressed). He came to CM out off the Gator's team from when Jim McElwain was there.

Posting since CM has lost two players to the portal within the final week or two approaching their first game of the season.

Lost DL 1st Tm MAC DL Mohmaed Diallo to transfer earlier this year (reportedly could start immediately at Arizona). Lost 2nd Tm MAC OL Derek Smith recently and now lost a depth player at CB in Edwards.
