Utah RB Jaylon Glover announces intentions to enter NCAA Transfer Portal
Utah third-year running back Jaylon Glover plans to enter the NCAA Transfer Portal, he announced on Wednesday.
He rushed for 360 yards on 78 carries in an impressive freshman season, then followed that up with a sophomore campaign where he totaled 562 yards and two touchdowns while playing in all 13 games.
However, he’s seen a reduced role in 2024, appearing in only three games and notching 12 carries. In his announcement, Glover said he will be redshirting the rest of this season to retain his eligibility.
Once he enters the transfer portal, he will have two years left to play at his next destination.
Glover signed with the Utes as a member of the Class of 2022 as a three-star prospect. According to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies, he ranked as the nation’s No. 476 overall prospect and No. 35 running back that cycle.

The spring window in April remains. The portal will only be 10 days, lasting from April 16, 2025, and shutting down on April 25, 2025. The transfer portal will open for 30 days whenever a head coach leaves their program, allowing athletes to leave and decide on their future, according to NCAA guidelines.
With the inaugural 12-team College Football Playoff, the postseason will be longer. Athletes on teams that compete in the College Football Playoff and later bowl game will be allowed to enter an additional five-day transfer portal window in January after the portal closes.
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 — meaning that roughly 25% of all FBS scholarship players hit free agency in one year.
