You forgot Denver Harris, who is now on his fourth school

PJ Williams transferred to SMU and I think has done pretty well

---

Added Denver (who never logged an INT in his 4 year career) and PJ, who made Second-Team All-ACC at OL.

I still remember Chris Marshall dominating the UA all American game. There's an alternate universe where he is a fist round draft pick. What a sad waste of athletic ability

---

Just googled him and he just transferred to Arkansas this week. A&M to Ole Miss (where he didn't play) to Boise State to Arkansas.

---

I think there was also a juco in there somewhere

I don't think Smoke ever saw the field for UGA. Was off the roster before the season ever started.

The SMU lawyer that kept PJ out of jail for the amount of weed he got caught with saved his career.

I guessI'm going to address the elephant in the room that so many of you are conveniently ignoring. I really hate when yall do ish like this. For sure after all the STs blunders. How did Sanjay do since he portaled out?

What about the WR that Robert Ferguson punched?

He didn't do much here and haven't heard of him since. Wasted athletic talent with 2 cent brain.

The good thing about the list is that our fans should not freak out over every player who decides to transfer out. Some are tough losses but most are not and the hope is that we upgrade.

Not sure if cool or stage 5 clinger ex gf psycho.

But mostly cool.

There are several players that would have contributed their Junior and Senior seasons if they had stayed, but they sailed off and were relatively easy to replace by the portal. The portal has solved the problem with class busts but I suspect we will have less class bust problems with Elko and company.

Thanks OP!

Numerous busts on Jimbo's watch in the 22 class.

Left out Kam Dewberry and Hunter Erb.

So the only transfer who has had a real impact at their new school is Bryce Foster. Not surprising, Foster was solid as a freshman at A&M, but it shows what a step down in competition can do for a player. Not a single player on that list that makes you say, "Damn, wish he was still here."

---

huh? Stowers, King, Overton, Lucas, Foster, and likely Williams would've started this season, at A&M.

Moral of the story is a handful of guys actually did something and all the rest were basic flops.

Well done OP.

Production from Aggies 2022 DE:

DE Overton had 4 sacks his senior season at BAMA, 7 sacks total over his career.
DE Sylla had 2 sacks his senior season (MISS State), 6 sacks total over his career.
DE Enai White had 1 sack his senior season (Penn State), 3 sacks total over his career.
DE Shemar Stewart had 1.5 sacks his junior season, 4.5 sacks total over his 3 year career. He had 1 sack in his first year in NFL.

All four are prototypical DE body types, tall, long arms, etc. All were highly rated players out of high school, but underachieved in sacks per year.

A little known player from Bowling Green comes along and posts 11.5 sacks his 5th year senior season, 4 sacks the year prior off the bench, 15.5 total sacks at A&M. With 9.5 sacks his third year at Bowling Green, 11.5 total sacks over 3 years. He was rated a 0.8141 out of high school, and is 6'2" with alligator arms.

I have a greater propensity to not discount the Cashius Howell route for players. Coach knows how to find these types of players, no matter what league they are in, and coach them up. It's like finding a gold nugget passed over by the many.

That was my conclusion. Lots of those that rang the bell and portaled out had issues. Some were detrimental to the team. Some likely had exit meetings. Some were likely not getting off the bench. Coach tells them the truth. This research I started during that 2022 time frame changed my outlook on the portal.

Eli Stowers was an Unanimous First team All American and won the John Mackey award as the nation's best Tight End, and may go as high as the first round in this draft. I think he had a real impact at Vanderbilt.

Stowers was signed as a QB for us.

I just googled Chris Marshall, and AI said he is a highly-touted former 5-star recruit, who had a winding college football journey starting at Texas A&M, transferring briefly to Ole Miss (where he was dismissed), playing at Kilgore JC, then starring at Boise State before recently transferring to Arkansas in January 2026

Timeline of his Journey:

• 2022: Signed with Texas A&M, playing in 6 games as a freshman.
• 2023: Transferred to Ole Miss for the spring semester but was dismissed from the team.
• 2023: Enrolled at Kilgore Junior College (JUCO), having a strong season (21 catches, 449 yds, 5 TDs).
• 2024: Transferred to Boise State, dealing with an injury and taking a redshirt.
• 2025: Emerged as a key player for Boise State with 30 catches for 574 yards (19.1 Yds/Rec).
• Jan 2026: Entered the portal and committed to Arkansas, reuniting with SEC football.

Thank you for your effort to keep up with these Texas A&M recruits after they entered the transfer portal! I think the most interesting and shocking thing is that Bryce Foster started every game for Kansas in 2024 and 2025.

Foster never bothered going to spring practice- even though he wasn't some sort of track star. And was hurt a lot in season- missing even more practice. On top of that he got horrible OL coaching under Fisher.

A change of scenery was a good thing for him.

Yes. If I'm not mistaken, I recall coaches asking him to move to TE to get him on the field because of his athleticism, but he wanted to remain a QB and try to get on the field somewhere else. Then he converted to TE on his next team.

His sister is quite the athlete as well.

To be fair, he had a shoulder injury that led to the position change. He left because he wanted to give QB another shot. Can't blame him for that

And he was on the track team throwing the shot, with a personal best.

Bryce Foster was very good here and at Kansas. Wish he had 4 years with Elko at the helm. He'd have been an all American here.

I'm a fan, still.

I didn't miss the ****ty snaps.

Or watching him get destroyed by D linemen

Pretty sure LT Overton would have certainly been a keeper out of that group. Wasn't a fan of Bryce Foster when it became obvious that the shot put was a higher priority for him than football.

---

Foster wanting to focus on shot put when he wasn't putting up Olympic numbers, which is the reason you would want to focus on it

Wasn't it Elko who let him go because he wasn't full time football. Didn't want to give up on throwing the shot or discus.

LT Overton, PJ Williams, Gabriel Brownlow Dindy, and Anthony Lucas were all impactful for their teams.

Ok….and he was a consensus AA here…

BUT WHEN THE LIGHTS WERE THE BRIGHTEST, the guy…..disappeared….

Thanks, OP.

Really interesting.
