Welcome to our first transfer portal power ratings of the offseason.
Jon Wilner Pac-12 teams have lost more than 100 players to the transfer portal since it opened on Dec. 5. That figure will climb — and perhaps significantly — before closing time on Jan. 18.
1. Colorado: Like last year, the Buffaloes have lost a load of players to the portal. Unlike last year, the level of departing talent is limited. Also unlike last year, they are the conference’s biggest winner thus far. Quarterback Shedeur Sanders arrives from Jackson State to run the offense for his father, while cornerback Travis Hunter — the former No. 1 rated recruit in the country — provides CU with an elite talent on the back line. Check back in another month.
4. USC: The biggest winner from the 2021-22 transfer cycle stands to benefit again, thanks largely to … Arizona? That’s right. Receiver Dorian Singer, cornerback Christian Roland-Wallace and defensive lineman Kyon Barrs give the Trojans impact players at positions of need. They also landed all-conference punter Eddie Czaplicki from ASU. Meanwhile, the attrition has been limited with linebacker Ralen Goforth as perhaps the most significant.
7. Arizona State: Not surprisingly, the coaching change has fueled massive roster turnover in Tempe. The Sun Devils lost several starters, including offensive linemen LaDarius Henderson and Ben Scott . But the influx of talent has been significant and includes two quarterbacks: Drew Pyne and Jacob Conover . Our guess: Plenty of Arizona natives who signed elsewhere in years past will be interested in coming home to join Kenny Dillingham’s program.
10. Cal: Not surprisingly, the Bears got whacked up front with starting tackle Ben Coleman leaving for Arizona State. Losing linebacker Oladejo to UCLA is a blow, as well. In terms of arrivals, Cal grabbed Oregon tailback Byron Cardwell and Sergio Allen, a former four-star recruit who spent three years at Clemson. But the key pieces remain in place, so far: Tailback Jaydn Ott and receiver J. Michael Sturdivant have not entered the portal.
