Monday was the first day the NCAA transfer portal officially opened up for the college football masses, and a handful of Penn State players began the process of evaluating their options for their college football future. Among the names entered into the transfer portal on Monday was defensive lineman [autotag]Rodney McGraw[/autotag], according to Lions247.
McGraw will have three years of eligibility to use wherever he ends up next. McGraw was a three-star addition in Penn State’s Class of 2021. With a pretty well-stocked defensive line, playing time was and would appear to be difficult to come by for McGraw.
McGraw made his intention to enter the transfer portal public on Sunday with a message posted to his Twitter account.
“Thank you Penn State for an incredible experience, McGraw said in a social media posting over the weekend, when he announced his intent to enter the transfer portal. “I’m extremely appreciative of my time in Happy Valley. I believe it’s in my best interest to enter the transfer portal at this time.”
Thank you Penn State for an incredible experience. I learned a lot playing for Coach Scott and Franklin. I’m extremely appreciative of my time in Happy Valley. I believe it’s in my best interest to enter the transfer portal at this time. With 3 years of eligibility remaining. pic.twitter.com/oHCo4sCCsD
