Campbell loses multiple players to the transfer portal
The duality of the transfer portal is evident in Buies Creek, North Carolina. Campbell lost multiple players to the transfer portal last week, including 4-star defensive back Myles Rowser.
Rowser announced his transfer on April 12 and has already received multiple Power-Five offers. He earned FCS Freshman All-American honors from The Bluebloods last season.
Defensive tackle Paul Hutson III also announced his transfer last week. Hutson saw action in 11 games as a true freshman and finished the year with 23 total tackles.
Campbell safety Peyton Woulard has also entered the portal. Woulard transferred to Campbell from Wake Forest prior to the 2021 season and played two seasons with the Camels. Over his two seasons, Woulard totaled 50 tackles, two interceptions, five pass breakups, and one forced fumble.
Former Auburn LB announces commitment to Chattanooga
Former Auburn linebacker Kameron Brown announced his commitment to Chattanooga on April 12. Brown announced his intentions to transfer after spending four seasons with the Tigers.
Brown was a highly recruited prospect out of Lanier High School; where he finished his career with 187 tackles, 24 tackles for loss, six sacks, and six pass breakups. He is the younger brother of Derrick Brown, who is a former top-10 NFL Draft pick and current defensive tackle for the Carolina Panthers.
He is a much-needed addition to a talented Chattanooga defense that must replace multiple top contributors at the linebacker position.
I want thank everyone for the love and support, and with that being said I will be finishing my MBA and Football career at UT-Chattanooga #gomocs💙💛 #chattanooga @CoachMYeager @leytonteal88 @GoMocsFB pic.twitter.com/q3VFM646BA
