Golden, other UH starters enter transfer portal

Sophomore wideout Matthew Golden is entering the transfer portal, On3Sports reported Thursday evening. Golden will be the ninth UH football player to have entered the portal since its opening on Dec. 4.

Starting offensive linemen Reuben Unije and Tyler Johnson also entered the portal. With senior tackle Patrick Paul entering the NFL Draft and center Jack Freeman IV graduating, Houston will likely enter the spring without any of its five starting offensive linemen from 2023.

Redshirt freshman receiver Dalton Carnes entered the transfer portal after earning significant playing time this season as a walk-on, catching 20 passes for 263 yards.
