TCU WR Cordale Russell announced his intentions to enter the transfer portal Thursday afternoon.

The 6’4 210 WR will have 4 years of eligibility remaining.

Russell sent a statement to On3:

First and foremost I want to thank the man above.Without him I’m nothing. I would also like to thank Coach Dykes and the rest of the TCU coach staff for giving me an opportunity to play the game I love, at the next level. I’m grateful for all the memories and the brotherhood that I’ve made this past year. But after sitting down and talking  with family and coaches I have made my decision to officially enter my name into the transfer portal. 

Thank You Frog 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 does not have an On3 NIL Valuation publicly listed. 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.
