One of the most productive wide receivers in the country has entered the transfer portal.
UTEP wide receiver Jacob Cowing entered the transfer portal on Tuesday. There is no doubt Cowing will receive interest from many Power Five teams this offseason.
The former two-star recruit from Arizona turned into a star at UTEP. Cowing compiled over 2,500 yards and 14 touchdowns in his career and finished first-team all C-USA in 2021.
An interesting addition to the transfer portal:
UTEP standout wide receiver Jacob Cowing, who ranks seventh nationally with 1,354 receiving yards, has entered the portal, @on3sports has learned.

The former UTEP Miner is a proven big-play threat. Cowing averages almost 20 yards per catch and had six touchdowns of 50-plus yards this season.
Texas could show interest in the in-state wideout. The Horns only took one wide receiver in the 2022 class and would benefit from the addition of Cowing. But first, Steve Sarkisian needs to hire a new wide receivers coach.
Cowing would be a great running mate for Xavier Worthy at Texas, the two wideouts could make up one of the more dynamic duos in the nation.
