Georgia CB Daniel Harris plans to enter Transfer Portal

Georgia CB Daniel Harris announced that he plans to enter the transfer portal.

Harris sent a message to On3:

First and Foremost I want to give thanks to god for blessing me day in and day out with the opportunity to play the game I love. None of this would be possible without him! Would like to thank Coach Smart and the rest of the coaching staff for giving me the opportunity to play at the University of Georgia as well as my teammates that have helped along the way. 

With that being said, after a much thought I have decided to enter the transfer portal with 3 years left of eligibility 

THANK YOU DAWG NATION!

Transfer portal background information

The NCAA Transfer Portal, which covers every NCAA sport at the Division I, II and III levels, is a private database with names of student-athletes who wish to transfer. It is not accessible to the public.

The process of entering the portal is done through a school’s compliance office. Once a player provides written notification of an intent to transfer, the office enters the player’s name in the database and everything is off and running. The compliance office has 48 hours to comply with the player’s request and that request cannot be refused.

Once a player’s name shows up in the portal, other schools can contact the player. Players can change their minds at any point and withdraw from the portal. However, once a player enters the portal, the current scholarship no longer has to be honored. In other words, if a player enters the portal but decides to stay, the school is not obligated to provide a scholarship anymore.

The database is a normal database, sortable by a variety of topics, including (of course) sport and name. A player’s individual entry includes basic details such as contact info, whether the player was on scholarship and whether the player is transferring as a graduate student.

A player can ask that a “do not contact” tag be placed on the report. In those instances, the players don’t want to be contacted by schools unless they’ve initiated the communication.

He currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $111K. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets high school and college athletes’ projected annual value (PAV). The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.
