Perhaps no coach has taken better advantage of the NCAA loosening transfer restrictions in recent years than Dan Mullen.
In 2018, he brought in receivers Van Jefferson from Ole Miss and Trevon Grimes from Ohio State and defensive tackle Adam Shuler from West Virginia. The following winter, he landed edge rusher Jonathan Greenard from Louisville. He’s signed 10 scholarship players out of the transfer portal in the last two recruiting cycles.
So far, everyone who has transferred into the program under his watch has either produced at a high level and gotten an opportunity to play in the NFL or still has a chance to do so.
