Transfer season is in full swing in college football, again.
The spring transfer portal window officially opened on April 16, allowing players to move following spring ball or even during their team’s spring practices.
Which players are on the move this offseason, and which ones have already found a new home?
Let’s take a look at the stars and standouts who are testing the waters and transferring.
Iowa QB Deacon Hill
Hill assumed starting quarterback duties for the Hawkeyes when high-profile transfer addition Cade McNamara tore his ACL in Iowa’s fifth game of the season. Hill struggled, however, as Iowa’s anemic offense under coordinator Brian Ferentz invited national scorn even as the Hawkeyes’ defense became one of the best in the entire nation, propelling Iowa to the Big Ten championship game. Hill had 1,152 pass yards yards on a 48.6 completion rate five touchdowns and eight interceptions last season.
Colorado RB Dylan Edwards
Edwards, a former four-star, was the first notable high school recruit to flip his commitment to the Buffaloes after Deion Sanders took over Colorado’s program in Dec. 2022, thanks in large part to a long association with Sanders dating back to Edwards’ youth football days. Edwards then made a massive impression in his first college game, racking up 159 total yards of offense and scoring four touchdowns in Colorado’s dramatic 45-42 upset of TCU in Fort Worth. Although Edwards cooled off after that, he still led Colorado in rushing with 321 yards on the ground and Sanders had praised him as a big part of the Buffaloes’ 2024 offensive plans as recently as last week. Edwards, out of Derby, Kansas, has been connected to his home-state programs as possible destinations, Kansas and Kansas State. He was once committed to Notre Dame before flipping to “Coach Prime.”
