LSU, USC Sign Top Transfer Portal Talents for 2025 Season

LSU football has strengthened its transfer portal class by adding AJ Haulcy, an All-Big 12 first-team safety from Houston, who brings significant experience and is expected to bring stability to LSU's secondary. The USC Trojans, facing a depleted cornerback roster after losing key players to the NFL, have secured UCF transfer Chasen Johnson, a promising freshman with three years of eligibility remaining. Johnson's addition is seen as a key move to bolster USC's defensive backfield for the 2025 season. Meanwhile, CBS Sports highlighted top FCS-to-FBS transfers for 2025, including standout players like quarterback Mark Gronowski (Iowa), wide receiver Sincere Brown (Colorado), and others, who are expected to make major impacts at their new programs.
