Colorado QB Walter Taylor plans to enter transfer portal

Colorado quarterback Walter Taylor tells On3 he plans to enter the transfer portal. The sophomore will have two years of eligibility remaining.

The former On3 four-star recruit in the class of 2022 has played in five games, throwing for 44 yards while rushing for 103 yards and a touchdown. Taylor played high school football at Jackson (Ala.), where he was a three-star prospect. He was the No. 1,143 overall recruit in the 2022 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

The transfer portal officially opens on Monday, Dec. 9, 2024. More than 2,800 FBS scholarship players entered their names into the NCAA’s transfer database during the 2023-24 school year. Removing those who withdrew or went pro, the final total sat at 2,707 transfers. That means roughly 25% of all FBS scholarship players hit free agency in one year.
