Sprinters in the Transfer Portal

Jake Odey Jordan not in college yet but commitment switch. He is now based in Texas and has switched from Florida to Texas Tech.

Lots of little things can throw off performance but once someone shows that kind of talent they can do it again with the exception of women who experience body changes as they mature (which can also happen to men sometimes). Usually things like training changes, problems adjusting to college life and/or personal issues are what interfere with progress. Once someone throws down those types of numbers there will always be coaches/programs willing to work with them.

That alone will get you a scholarship anywhere.

This thread goes a long way in proving the point that most coaches at the power 4/5 level are managing talent more than they're actually coaching. Obviously I'm not saying that the coaches are clueless, but when certain coaches look like experts when they win the recruiting war but like amateurs when they lose, it says a lot.

Anouk Krause-Jentsch (Murray State) --> TEXAS

400H 56.71

This doesn't exactly fit here because this isn't a sprinter but didn't want to start a new thread.

there's an interesting new name in the portal from NAU... this will be transfer #2 .

great timing too given the xc race that's happening on Sat

Jelani Watkins FB LSU to Arkansas. 10.01, 20.24, 6.60.

The build around Quincy begins!

E. Bryce Pearson with the 45.32

I wouldve gotten out of GA too. They are ABSOLUTELY stacked on both sides this year. The fight for the 4x400 A squads are gonna be ridiculous.

MBP suffered a torn hamstring tendon at the first indoor meet of her senior season and re-injured it about three months later.

My understanding is that she has been working hard at USC, is again strong, and they are optimistic for her sophomore season.

Injuries, sometimes serious, happen to almost all elite athletes. It seems a little premature to dismiss Jackson, MBP, or Steiner, who is coming back from surgery.

Autumn Wilson UGA to Samford. PB 11.05 22.44. Primarily an indoor runner at UGA dealing with injuries.

I honestly didn't realize she was still at Georgia. Presumably her money got pulled.

Haley Tate (Georgia) --> Miami

200m 23.83

400m 52.75

TrackNerd2- I was wondering when Autumn Wilson was going to jumped into the portal. I just didn't think that she was going to end up at Samford. However, best luck to her.

Mia pulled her hamstring at the end of an indoor 60m her senior year and then completely tore the hamstring while she was returning to training. This erased the rest of her senior year and had her running a lite schedule her freshman year at USC.

This will hopefully be her first full year competing since the injury.

McKenzie Travis, Antwan Hughes Jr, Lucky Daje, Kennedy Flynn, and Jalee Brown

All from South Carolina, all hit the transfer portal today.

I have observed the numerous South Carolina athletes who have entered the transfer portal as well. I look forward to discovering the reasoning behind their sudden decision to leave South Carolina and learning which schools they will be attending in the near future.
