SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Losing friends seems to be inevitable for college football players these days.
Take senior defensive back Jason Taylor. Some of the players he has shared the field with the most as an OSU Cowboy have recently announced their intentions to transfer. Senior safety Thomas Harper, junior cornerback Jabbar Muhammed. The list of departures goes on. Even quarterback Spencer Sanders, Taylor’s roommate, hit the portal.
A similar exodus took place last year, and no team or position group in college football was immune. Taylor lost fellow defensive backs Tanner McCalister and Jarrick Bernard-Converse in 2021 to other schools.
