01/08/23 - JayVeon Sunday, rJr/2026, Abilene Christian + More +

With a whopping nine scholarship players, Washington had an obvious roster crunch at running back this offseason. And on Thursday, Jay'Veon Sunday provided a little relief. Sunday - a 6-foot, 203-pound sophomore - has entered the transfer portal, a source confirmed to The Times. The Waco, Texas, product has three seasons of remaining eligibility. Sunday signed with Washington as a three-star recruit out of Connally High School in 2020, but has contributed just 29 rushing yards and 3.2 yards per carry in five career games. Buried behind the likes of Wayne Taulapapa, Cameron Davis, Richard Newton and Will Nixon on UW's depth chart, Sunday appeared in just one game this fall.

Albeit in a pass-first offensive system, UW ranked fifth in the Pac-12 in rushing touchdowns (33), sixth in rushing (146.46 yards per game) and seventh in yards per carry (4.76) in 2022 - led primarily by Taulapapa (887 rushing yards, 6.3 yards per carry, 12 TD) and Davis (522, 4.9, 13). The Huskies have already added three scholarship running backs this offseason - Arizona State transfer Daniyel Ngata, Mississippi State transfer Dillon Johnson and three-star freshman Tybo Rogers. UW is slated to return Davis, Newton, Nixon and sophomores Sam Adams II and Aaron Dumas as well. - Seattle Times

09/03/22 - Maverick McIvor, rSr/2025, Abilene Christian + More +

Maverick McIvor threw two touchdown passes and Abilene Christian's defense blanked Lamar over the final three quarters to give the Wildcats their first season-opening win since 2013 with a 28-14 victory on Thursday night. After Mike Chandler threw a pair of long first-quarter touchdown passes - 59 yards to Jalen Dummett and 75 yards to Sevonne Rhea - the Cardinals managed just 132 yards the rest of the game.

Late in the quarter Catalon broke the tie by racing 37 yards untouched on a reverse around the left side. That made a winner of former Texas Tech defensive coordinator Keith Patterson in his first game replacing Adam Dorrel. McIvor, in his first meaningful action since getting injured as a high school senior four years ago, finished 22 of 38 for 258 yards. Catalon had seven catches for 199 yards. Chandler was 8 of 24 for 204 yards, but was 4 of 19 after the first quarter. - AP College Football
