According to Matt Zenitz of On3, Florida Gators wide receiver Trent Whittemore has officially entered the NCAA transfer portal. While the window does not open until Dec. 4, Whittemore is able to enter as a graduate student. Whittemore announced his intentions on Monday.

Dan Mullen originally brought the wide receiver to Gainesville, spending three seasons with him. However, this was not able to kick off the right way under new head coach Billy Napier, only having four receptions for 87 yards in 2022.

Whittemore announced the transfer on his Twitter account, tweeting a graphic.

“I’ve been a Gator for as long as I can remember. I’m grateful for the opportunity to have played for the University of Florida and earned my degree,” Whittemore wrote. “Thanks to Coach (Jim) McElwain, Coach (Dan) Mullen, and Coach (Billy) Napier for their parts in my journey. A special thanks to Coach (Billy) Gonzales, Coach [Keary Colbert], and Coach (Nick) Savage for all they poured into me. Most of all I appreciate the relationships built and time spent with my teammates. It’s the friendships and memories that I will treasure most.

“With that being said, I have now entered the transfer portal as a graduate student.”

Whittemore battled injuries during his time at Florida, including a punctured lung at one point.
