Which Utah State players have entered the transfer portal? Which transfers are coming to USU?

The NCAA transfer portal opened Dec. 9 and stays open until Dec. 28.

During that window, college football players from across the country can — and many have — enter their names into the portal and begin the search for a new program to call home.

Utah State has been hit especially hard by defections to the portal over the last couple of years and the Aggies have had to utilize the portal to great effect to rebuild their team multiple times now.

So far, that trend seems to be continuing and here are all the 2024-25 Aggies who’ve decided (or been asked) to move on from Utah State and try their luck elsewhere, as well as all the players who’ve committed to join Utah State next season after leaving their now former programs.

This list will be updated regularly.

One final note, players will sometimes announce their entry into the transfer portal and then delete those posts. Thus far, safety Ike Larsen and offensive lineman Aloali’i Maui have done that this portal window. Larsen has since announced that he is returning to Utah State next season.
