Tennessee (10-2, 6-2 SEC) is ranked No. 7 in College Football Playoff rankings ahead of conference championship week. The Vols will not play this week and await their final College Football Playoff ranking and seeding.
Ahead of postseason play, Tennessee sophomore running back Khalifa Keith entered the NCAA transfer portal.
“After much consideration, I would like to announce I will be entering the transfer portal on Dec. 9 with three years of eligibility left,” Keith announced.
The 6-foot-1, 239-pound running back appeared in four games for the Vols during the 2024 regular-season. He totaled 100 rushing yards and scored one touchdown on 21 attempts, while also recording one reception for eight yards.
Keith appeared in 12 games for Tennessee as freshman in 2023, totaling 24 rushing yards on 11 attempts.
He went to Tennessee from Parker High School in Birmingham, Alabama.
