After the 2024 season, 35 members of the BYU football program entered the transfer portal. 16 entered during the Winter transfer window and 19 entered during the Spring window. Transfer portal entries were at an all-time high as teams prepared for potential roster cuts. BYU was not immune from transfer portal attrition. Today, we're checking in on those transfers out of the program.

Out of the 35 transfers out of the program, seven landed at another P4 program. 10 former BYU players transferred to the G6 ranks. The remaining players either dropped down to the FCS or JUCO levels or they retired from football.

Spring Transfer Window

Of the 19 players that transferred out during the Spring window, 15 found new homes. Four players stayed in the P4 ranks, four ended up in the G6 ranks and seven went down to either the FCS ranks or the JUCO ranks.

  2. Harrison Taggart (Cal)
  3. Chika Ebunoha (Utah State)

Out of the 16, three transferred to another P4 school, six went to the G6 ranks, and four went to the FCS ranks.
