  Alabama linebacker Dylan Moses confirmed Thursday that he is entering the 2021 NFL draft. Moses, who returned in 2020 for his senior season, turned down a chance to play an additional college season in 2021 that would have been made possible by the NCAA's blanket eligibility waiver. Moses made the announcement in an Instagram post. Moses is projected as a mid-round pick in April's draft. He joins four underclassmen who declared for the draft Thursday afternoon: quarterback Mac Jones, wide receiver Jaylen Waddle, cornerback Patrick Surtain and defensive tackle Christian Barmore. Defensive lineman Phidarian Mathis announced Thursday he is staying in school. - Birmingham News

  One of the two five-star prospects to sign with Tennessee football during Jeremy Pruitt's tenure is looking to transfer. Offensive tackle Wanya Morris entered the NCAA transfer portal on Wednesday. He is the 10th scholarship Vol to enter the portal since Dec. 1 and the biggest hit to Tennessee's roster yet. Morris was the No. 28 prospect and No. 6 offensive tackle nationally in the 247Sports Composite for the 2019 class out of Grayson (Georgia) High School. Darnell Wright, the No. 10 prospect in 2019, is only higher-ranked prospect to sign with the Vols under Pruitt's watch. The 6-foot-5, 320-pound Morris played in 22 games with 19 starts in two seasons. Morris played in all 13 games and started 12 at left tackle as a freshman in 2019. He was named to the freshman All-SEC team. - Knoxville News Sentinel

  LSU running back Chris Curry announced Wednesday afternoon he will transfer to Utah. Curry, who entered the NCAA transfer portal in December, posted a graphic on social media of himself wearing a Utah jersey underneath the word "Committed." Wearing the coveted No. 18 jersey this season, Curry finished as LSU's third-leading rusher. The redshirt sophomore played in nine games. He started twice and gained 145 yards on 45 carries. - Baton Rouge Advocate

  Josh Black had three factors in mind when he decided to return for a sixth and final season with Syracuse next fall. The defensive lineman was undecided on his future plans toward the end of last season. He didn't think he was ready to take his NFL shot. He didn't want to regret passing on another year of free education. Those two factors tilted the scales: "It was no-brainer for me." The third was getting a redo after a 1-10 season, a chance to end his college career on a better note. Black recently expanded on his reasoning for returning to Syracuse on a podcast with his hometown paper in Illinois. "Ending on that 1-10 note just didn't sit right with me," Black said on "Not Just a Game," a weekly sports podcast from The Rockford Register Star. "I really need to end on a winning note to kind of complete my career here at Syracuse. "I feel like it's my duty to help them out." - The Post-Standard

  When all eyes in Hard Rock Stadium were trained pregame Monday night on Jaylen Waddle's right ankle, out of the tunnel trotted a No. 69 in a crimson uniform. About an hour before kickoff of the national championship game, Landon Dickerson was not only wearing his game jersey, but was fully dressed and ready to play with all his usual athletic tape and braces. The only problem: Dickerson was only about three weeks removed from season-ending knee surgery.

The center had no chance of playing against Ohio State - or in any competitive football game for several months - but wanted to close his college career as more than a spectator. Dickerson had been carted off the field of the SEC championship game Dec. 19, marking the fourth time his five-year college career has been cut short by an injury. After three seasons at Florida State and two at Alabama, Monday night was his first opportunity to play in a championship game - and he was not going to miss it. - Birmingham News

  Coastal Carolina's breakout 2020 season has earned the Chanticleers a No. 14 national ranking in the final Associated Press Top 25 Poll that was released Tuesday. The Chants finished the season 11-1 with a wild 37-34 overtime loss to Liberty (10-1) in their first bowl game, the FBC Mortgage Cure Bowl on Dec. 26 at Camping World Stadium in Orlando. The season included two wins over top 25 teams, as the Chants defeated then-No. 21 Louisiana 30-27 on a last-second field goal on Oct. 14, and beat then-No. 8 Brigham Young 22-17 on Dec. 5 with a tackle at the CCU 1-yard line as time expired. The Chants were scheduled to face Liberty that day, but the Flames were forced to cancel due to coronavirus cases within the program, and CCU and BYU agreed to play at Brooks Stadium just two days before the scheduled game. - Myrtle Beach Online

  North Carolina linebacker Tomon Fox announced through his Twitter account that he will return for another senior year. Fox is taking advantage of the NCAA eligibility waiver given to athletes from all fall sports that essentially allows for a do-over of their 2020 season ravaged by COVID-19. Fox, who is 6-foot-3, 255 pounds, led the Heels last season with seven sacks. He is also the team leader with 34 starts and 33 tackles for loss. He is currently tied with NFL Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor for fifth place on UNC's career sacks list with 21. - Raleigh News Observer

  Illinois football's top tight end in 2020 will be back with the program in 2021. Daniel Barker announced via Twitter on Wednesday afternoon that he won't leave the team early, with the junior set to return as the Illini's leading pass-catcher from the season prior. Barker has played in 21 games during his Illinois tenure, racking up 46 catches for 625 yards and seven scores. He'll be under the direction of a new tight ends coach in his senior year, as Cory Patterson has shifted from that role to running backs coach under new Illini coach Bret Bielema. - News Gazette Tribune

  Clemson's best and most experienced offensive lineman is leaving for the NFL. Left tackle Jackson Carman announced Wednesday night that he is entering the NFL draft. Jackson, a former five-star recruit, was named second-team All-ACC this past season. The Ohio native was a two-year starter for the Tigers, starting all 15 games in 2019 and all 12 games this year. Carman declared for the NFL draft the same day that Tigers star quarterback Trevor Lawrence announced that he is also turning pro. - The State

  2020 RIMINGTON TROPHY AWARD WINNER: Landon Dickerson, Alabama,...Landon Dickerson, Alabama center, was named the Rimington Trophy winner tonight at the The Home Depot College Football Awards. The fifth-year senior is a veteran for the Crimson Tide with 24 starts and led his 2020 offensive line to win the Joe Moore Award during his second season as the starting center. Under his leadership, the Alabama front has surrendered just nine sacks while quarterback Mac Jones has been on the field (.75 per game, which would be sixth nationally). - Rimington Trophy Award

  2020 RIMINGTON TROPHY FINALIST: Josh Myers, Ohio State,...Myers joins Pat Elflein (2016) and Billy Price (2017) as Buckeye finalists over the past five years. Both Elflein and Price won the award. Other 2020 finalists are Landon Dickerson of Alabama and Tyler Linderbaum of Iowa. Myers has been at the center - literally - of one of the nation's top offensive lines in 2020. He was named first-team All-Big Ten Conference and helped the Buckeyes win a fourth straight conference title with one of the most dominating run performances of the entire season. - Ohio State Football

  Former Georgia Tech quarterback Tucker Gleason, who placed his name into the transfer portal in mid-December, has announced his transfer to Toledo. Gleason, a freshman, played in two games this season behind starter Jeff Sims. Gleason was the first prospect to announce his commitment to Tech in March 2019, as a high-school junior. Gleason will step into a situation where the starter (Eli Peters, who coincidentally is a graduate of Jeff Sims' alma mater, Sandalwood High in Jacksonville, Fla.) finished his senior season and his backup, Carter Bradley, finished his sophomore season. - Atlanta Journal Constitution

  01/05/21 - QB JT Daniels, rSr/2024, Rice + More +

  JT Daniels decided to clean up some of the wishy-washiness left over from the previous day. A day after posting "to be continued..." on his Instagram account, the Georgia quarterback used his Twitter feed to inform the Bulldog Nation he is indeed committing to playing for them in 2021. A third-year sophomore and therefore draft-eligible, there was some speculation that Daniels might test the NFL after just one season at UGA. Tuesday’s message ended any such conjecture. "Found my new home," Daniels wrote. "Now we got unfinished business."

Daniels’ news came in the middle of a Tuesday afternoon in which there were several roster updates in what’s expected to be a busy month of ingress and egress. The Bulldogs got some extremely good news from senior defensive lineman Devonte Wyatt, who announced he intended to return for another season, and junior running back James Cook, who decided he would return rather than test the NFL draft as an underclassman. - The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
