In addition to changing head coaches with the resignation of Joe Moglia and promotion of Jamey Chadwell, Coastal Carolina may lose a couple of key contributors to transfers this offsesason, including the only Chanticleer to be named to the 2018 All-Sun Belt Conference First Team.
Defensive end Jeffrey Gunter and offensive lineman Brock Hoffman – a pair of sophomores who each started all 12 games this past season – have entered the NCAA Transfer Portal, making them immediately eligible to speak to other colleges about transferring.
Gunter, who is 6-foot-4 and 255 pounds, had 14 tackles for loss including five sacks last season and combined with fellow sophomore defensive end Tarron Jackson to record 25 of the team’s 61 tackles for loss.
