Transfer portal tracker: QB Dylan Raiola commits to Oregon; WR Cam Coleman picks Texas

Former Nebraska quarterback Dylan Raiola has committed to transfer to Oregon, On3 reported.

Raiola has been one of the top QBs in the portal. He gives the Ducks a replacement for Dante Moore, who is expected to declare for the NFL Draft.

LSU has added a quarterback through the transfer portal. It just may not be the QB college football fans were expecting.

Elon QB Landen Clark is transferring to the Tigers ahead of the 2026 season. Clark had 29 total touchdowns in 2025 at the FCS level.

Lane Kiffin has had success with QBs making the jump to the top level of college football. Just look at Trinidad Chambliss. The former Ferris State QB took over as Ole Miss’ starter after Austin Simmons’ injury and ended up finishing 8th in the Heisman voting.

Wake Forest former quarterback Deshawn Purdie will transfer to Liberty, according to CBS Sports Matt Zenitz and Chris Hummer.

Purdie threw for 618 yards, 6 touchdowns and 3 interceptions and had two starts at Wake Forest last season. Purdie spent a season at Charlotte before transferring to Wake Forest last season.

Former Penn State tight end Luke Reynolds is transferring to Virginia Tech, where he’ll reunite with head coach James Franklin, ESPN reports. Per On3, Reynolds is the No. 3 tight end in the transfer portal.

SMU transfer running back Chris Johnson Jr. will stay in the ACC after committing to Clemson. While Johnson is not related to the former Tennessee Titans running back, Johnson will bring speed to the Tigers’ backfield.

Last season, Johnson had 479 yards and 4 touchdowns on 67 carries. Johnson spent two seasons at the University of Miami before transferring to SMU.

After missing out on Cam Coleman, Texas A&M was able to pick up Alabama transfer wide receiver Isaiah Horton.

Last season, Horton caught 42 catches for 511 yards and a team-high 8 touchdowns. Horton spent three seasons at Miami before he transferred to Alabama last season.

Oregon Ducks tight end Vander Ploog has plans to enter the NCAA transfer portal. Ploog did not play in 2025 but was a four-star recruit out of California for the 2025 class. He was the No. 11-ranked tight end and No. 208 overall prospect out of high school.

Fowler-Nicolosi has extensive starting experience for the Rams. He was the team’s starter in 2023 and 2024 before starting the first three games of the 2025 season.

He’ll likely back up Bryce Underwood with the Wolverines.

Former Colorado and Ohio State running back Dallan Hayden is heading to Memphis.

Hayden played two seasons at Ohio State before spending the past two seasons at Colorado. He has 264 career carries for 1,185 yards and eight touchdowns. Five of those came in his freshman season at Ohio State in 2022. He rushed 70 times for 326 yards and a score over 10 games for the Buffaloes in 2025.

CJ Baxter is staying in the SEC as he’s committing to Kentucky, per On3.

The former Texas RB rushed 54 times for 196 yards across eight games in 2025. He played in just one game in 2024, but rushed 138 times for 659 yards and five scores as a freshman in 2023.

Baylor quarterback transfer Walker White has signed with Central Arkansas. Walker began his college career at Auburn and was the No. 41-ranked QB in the class of 2024. He’s also an Arkansas native.

Former NC State RB Hollywood Smothers’ commitment to Alabama did not last long. He’s flipped to Texas.

Former Auburn wide receiver Cam Coleman announced he has committed to transfer to the Texas Longhorns.

Coleman was the top player in On3’s transfer portal rankings and was courted by Texas Tech, Texas A&M and Alabama, in addition to the Longhorns. He caught 56 passes for 708 yards and five touchdowns with Auburn last season.

Coleman will give Texas quarterback Arch Manning another top weapon next season alongside receiver Ryan Wingo.

Knight is a former five-star recruit and was the No. 25 player in the class of 2025.

Former Nebraska quarterback Dylan Raiola is expected to visit Oregon, according to On3’s Pete Nakos.

Current Ducks quarterback Dante Moore told reporters after a Peach Bowl College Football Playoff semifinal loss Friday night that he’s still deciding between returning to Oregon and declaring for the NFL Draft.

Moore has been projected as a top-two quarterback in this year’s draft.

Offensive tackle Lance Heard is headed to Kentucky, which will be his third difference SEC team after he previously played for LSU and Tennessee.

Heard is the No. 2 tackle in On3’s transfer portal rankings and No. 20 player overall. He’s entering his senior season after starting 23 total games at left tackle for the Vols across the last two seasons.

Tennessee has reportedly landed former Penn State edge rusher Chaz Coleman, who is the No. 3 player on On3’s transfer portal rankings and No. 1 edge rusher.

It’s a big get for the Vols, who are getting Coleman coming off a strong freshman season in which he tallied eight tackles, three TFL, one sack, one forced fumble, and two fumble recoveries in nine games.

Johnson will play his seventh season of college football in 2026. He appeared in just five games across two seasons at North Carolina after suffering a severe leg injury in Week 1 of the 2024 season. He played in 18 games across two seasons at LSU before transferring to Texas A&M and playing in 12 games across two seasons with the Aggies.

Tuggle is heading back to the SEC after just one year at Purdue. He transferred to the Boilermakers after his freshman season at Georgia and was a bright spot on an otherwise abysmal Purdue team. He had 34 catches for 500 yards and four scores as a sophomore in 2025.

Now he’ll team with LaNorris Sellers after the Gamecocks QB said that he would return in 2026.
