PORTAL ENTRY OF NOTE
Ohio State has mined the transfer portal better than any other school with major additions like Jonah Jackson, Justin Fields, and most recently Trey Sermon. If Ryan Day or any other program is looking for a former five-star with the ability to play a few different positions and get to the quarterback, then things just got a bit juicier in the portal.
A friend of mine who lives in the Dallas area and roots for the Aggies actually reached out last week and suggested that a prominent LSU player was on the verge of transferring to TCU or Baylor. I didn't do any digging at the time because it didn't involve Ohio State, but on Friday it was announced that 2019 signee Marcel Brooks had entered the transfer portal.
A pass-rushing specialist, Brooks was rated as the No. 32 player in the country and was expected to step into a much larger role as a sophomore in Baton Rouge. TCU, Baylor, and potentially Oklahoma look like the frontrunners at the moment as he's likely to stay close to his home state of Texas.
Interestingly enough, Michael Thomas actually tweeted at Brooks just yesterday suggesting there's a spot for him at Ohio State (though he quickly deleted it). Al Washington's linebacker room will be losing a lot after the upcoming season, but three talented juniors are waiting in the wings to take over in 2021.
