Transfer portal tracker: Top QB Sam Leavitt heading to LSU; Dylan Raiola commits to Oregon

Dante Moore’s return to Oregon and Dylan Raiola’s arrival as a transfer are having ripple effects on the Oregon depth chart.

Freshman signee Bryson Beaver, the No. 13 QB in the class of 2026, is entering the transfer portal, according to On3. Beaver signed with the Ducks in the December early signing period.

The Hoosiers have signed Wisconsin guard Joe Brunner, according to CBS. Brunner is a two-year starter for the Badgers and is another add to another stellar transfer class for Indiana.

Not transfer news per se, but Oregon’s Dante Moore has announced he’s coming back for one more year in Eugene.

The Ducks had added Dylan Raiola in the portal, so Raiola will likely back up Moore next season before becoming Oregon’s starter in 2027.

Lane Kiffin has added yet another quarterback to his roster in Baton Rouge. This time it’s a developmental prospect who was a top-end recruit out of high school.

Longstreet only played spot duty in four games during his one season at USC, but was listed as the No. 7 quarterback in the portal by On3.

The Yellow Jackets have added one of the biggest names left in the transfer portal, getting a commitment from Michigan transfer RB Justice Haynes.

Haynes ran for 857 yards and 10 TDs at a 7.1 yard-per-carry clip for the Wolverines this season. He was leading the Big Ten in rushing before suffering a foot injury in October that sidelined him for the season.

Hill had nine sacks and 11.5 tackles for loss as a freshman in 2025.

Why add one transfer QB when you can add two? Just days after former Mizzou QB Beau Pribula committed to the Cavaliers, Pitt’s Eli Holstein did the same.

TJ Finley is on to his seventh school. The former LSU, Auburn, Texas State, Western Kentucky, Tulane and Georgia State quarterback has committed to Incarnate Word, according to CBS Sports. He turns 24 in March.

Utah cornerback Smith Snowden, one of the top defensive backs in the transfer portal, announced his commitment to Michigan on Tuesday. You can probably guess what drew him to Ann Arbor.

Former Ohio State wide receiver Mylan Graham is transferring to Notre Dame, according to On3’s Hayes Fawcett.

Graham recorded just six catches for 93 yards this season, his second with the Buckeyes.

But he was the Rivals industry ranking’s No. 9 WR in the 2024 class.

Former Mercer defensive lineman Andrew Zock is transferring to Toledo.

Zock is coming off a monster season, in which he won the Buck Buchanan Award, given annually to the FCS’ top defensive player.

In 12 regular-season games, the edge rusher totaled 46 tackles, 20 TFLs, 11.5 sacks, 2 forced fumbles, 1 fumble recovery and 23 quarterback hurries.

Moore is heading to Boulder, according to CBS.

He was Texas’ second-leading receiver in 2025 with 38 catches for 562 yards and four touchdowns. He goes from catching passes from Arch Manning in Austin to JuJu Lewis at Colorado. The former five-star recruit started late in the year for the Buffaloes before sitting at the end of the season to preserve his redshirt.

Michigan State defensive end Jalen Thompson is heading to Tempe to join the Sun Devils, according to On3.

He spent three years as a backup with the Spartans. Last season, he totaled 29 tackles and 2.5 sacks.

Tennessee’s defensive overhaul continues with the addition of former Michigan safety TJ Metcalf.

He was the third-leading tackler for the Wolverines in 2025. Metcalf had 58 tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss and an interception.

Jayden Limar is heading to one of Oregon’s rivals.

The running back has committed to Washington. Limar had 46 carries for 262 yards and three scores over eight games in 2025. He was not available for Oregon’s College Football Playoff loss to Indiana because he had entered the transfer portal.

Colorado offensive lineman Jordan Seaton is out. Seaton plans to enter the transfer portal, and will now play next season elsewhere, according to On3’s Pete Nakos.

Seaton was a five-star recruit coming out of high school, and was the No. 18 ranked player in his class. He was Colorado’s highest-ranked signee in more than a decade, too.

Former Minnesota safety Koi Perich is on the move, but he’s staying in the Big Ten.

Perich committed to Oregon on Monday, according to On3. Perich had 82 total tackles and an interception last season with the Gophers.

Virginia coach Tony Elliott has added a quarterback as Beau Pribula has reportedly committed to the Cavaliers.

Pribula has one year of eligibility left after leaving Penn State for Missouri ahead of last season.

Over 10 games this year, Pribula was 182-of-270 passing for 1,941 yards and 11 TDs with nine interceptions while also rushing for 297 yards and six scores. He missed two games after suffering a dislocated ankle in Missouri’s loss to Vanderbilt.

Two Alabama defensive players are on their way to Ohio State. The Buckeyes scored commitments from defensive tackle James Smith and EDGE rusher Qua Russaw, according to reports.

Both players were five-star recruits out of high school and are among the top defensive players available in the transfer portal, according to On3. Smith played in 15 games for the Crimson Tide, tallying 28 tackles , 6.5 tackles for loss and 2.5 sacks. Russaw appeared in nine games and compiled 14 tackles with one sack.
