Dan Lanning and the Oregon Ducks got a big early win in the transfer portal, landing former Alabama Crimson Tide wide receiver Traeshon Holden, who had 7 touchdowns in two seasons under Nick Saban.
Holden, who was on an official visit to Eugene this past weekend to check out the school, will likely be a big addition to Oregon’s offense, which lost both WR Dont’e Thornton and WR Seven McGee to the portal this year, as well as senior WR Chase Cota.
As a former 4-star recruit who was rated as the No. 187 player in the 2020 class, Holden had a breakout season in 2022 with 6 TDs for the Crimson Tide, making it relatively surprising that he chose to enter the portal.
