After one day 12 Oregon players have entered the Transfer Portal or announced plans to enter it, a sad reality of poor planning and mismanagement by the NCAA.
The Ducks are preparing for the Peach Bowl, a rematch against Indiana in the College Football Playoff semifinal in Atlanta, Thursday January 9 at 4:30 p.m. PT, yet they will be missing a dozen players for their roster with possibly more to come:
QB Austin Novosad
RB Jay Harris
WR Kyler Kasper
WR Justius Lowe
OL Lipe Moala
CB Sione Laulea
CB Jahlil Florence
CB Dakoda Fields
Nickel Daylen Austin
Nickel Solomon Davis
SAF Kingston Lopa
TE Kade Caton
Of these, Austin and Lopa were in the two-deep in the secondary, Lopa 20th on the team in tackles with 12, one pass breakup and one sack.
