10 most impactful 2024 college football transfer portal moves

9. Trey Moore to Texas 

Offensive players have undoubtedly garnered most of the headlines in the transfer portal, but there are a few defensive players like Moore who are set to make a big impact with their new teams. Moore is also a bit of a unique case considering he played at a small school, UTSA, for the last three seasons but will make the jump to a team that just made the College Football Playoff: Texas. Moore was absolutely sensational in his time with the Roadrunners as the 6-foot-3, 235-pound linebacker registered 56 total tackles, eight sacks and two forced fumbles in 2022, and then put up a career-best 14 sacks this past season, also forcing a fumble and grabbing an interception. Moore is a star in the making as Texas transitions to the SEC and he will solidify the Longhorns’ pass rush.
