As the spring transfer portal opened for business on Wednesday, Mississippi State has already had a scholarship player put his name on the list.

Redshirt freshman offensive lineman JaCorey Whitted plans to make a move after just one year on campus. The 6’6, 280-pounder came to State as a tight end last year but grew into a lineman after one year. He didn’t play in a game during his time in Starkville

A McAdory (Ala.) High School standout, Whitted picked up early offers from Alabama, Arkansas, Texas A&M, Florida, Tennessee, Auburn and many others.  He would commit to the Bulldogs in September of 2023.

Whitted was rated as a consensus three-star across the recruiting networks and was the No. 38 tight end nationally by On3 while coming in at No. 27 among prospects inside the state of Alabama. As a junior, Whitted caught 12 passes for 201 yards and two touchdowns. He would pull in 31 catches his senior season with 678 yards and nine scores.

Whitted is the first scholarship player to enter the portal this spring for the Bulldogs. James Madison transfer Jesse Ramil is also hitting the portal after spending just the spring in Starkville. Walk-on quarterback and Tupelo native Jake Weir announced his intentions to enter the portal on Wednesday morning. The Bulldogs have had 24 scholarship players enter the portal since the end of last season and have added 25.
