Players Enter Transfer Portal After Bowl Losses

Georgia Tech has seen a flurry of players enter the transfer portal following their Birmingham Bowl loss, including sophomore linebacker Jacob Cruz and reserve safety Jayden Davis. Cruz, who struggled to establish himself on the defense and had limited playing time, will have three years of eligibility left at his next school. Meanwhile, Davis, who had minimal impact during his time at Georgia Tech, is also seeking a new opportunity, marking his second transfer after a year at Cincinnati. Additionally, Clemson's graduate defensive lineman Tre Williams has joined the portal, becoming the fifth scholarship player from the team to do so. This reflects a larger trend, as Arkansas wide receiver Dazmin James also entered the portal after a breakout performance in the Liberty Bowl, further impacting the Razorbacks' depth chart. Overall, these moves highlight the volatility and reshaping of college football rosters as players seek better opportunities.
