Last post, we identified the highest graded recruit for every Sun Belt program. That was fun. But as we all know, today’s college football crooters have two pools from which to dip – high schools and the Transfer Portal. The Sun Belt did plenty of Portal Poaching this off season, grabbing guys from all over the college football community. Who got the best guy? Who knows? I just poached the grades, compliments of 24/7.
Program | Player | Position | Former Program | 247 Ranking |
Appalachian State | Ahmani Marshall | RB | Wake Forest | 0.87 (T) |
Arkansas State | King Mwikuta | LB | Alabama | 0.86 (T) |
Coastal Carolina | Jahmar Brown | LB | South Caroloina | 0.8682 (HS) |
Georgia Southern | Jeremy Singleton | WR | Houston | 0.8400 (T) |
Georgia State | Keilon Brown | QB | Memphis | 0.79 (T) |
Louisiana | James Ohonba | IOL | Michigan St. | 0.8804 (HS) |
South Alabama | Jalen Jordan | CB | Ole Miss | 0.84 (T) |
Texas State | Demarus Gregory | WR | USF | 0.8791 (HS) |
Troy | RaJae Johnson | WR | UAB | 0.8400 (T) |
ULM | Tyrone Howell | WR | Kansas St. | 0.8200 (T) |
Marshall | Iaiah Gibson | DL | Kentucky | 0.85 (T) |
Southern Miss | Janari Dean | S | Miss. State | 0.86 (T) |
Old Dominion | Marquez Bell | WR | Cincinnati | 0.8614 (HS) |
James Madison | Todd Centeio | QB | Colorado St. | 0.8478 (T) |
I’m no mathematician, but it appears that Louisiana may have grabbed 24/7’s highest graded guy, James Ohonba from Michigan State. I’m rooting for all of them, personally, to avoid the Portal next year.
