  08/19/20 - Jacques TurnerrSr/2022, Louisville, 6-1, 290 (DS#999 DT) + More +

  Three of Southern Miss' most veteran football players are ending their time with the Golden Eagles prematurely. Senior defensive end Jacques Turner, senior linebacker Racheem Boothe and junior running back Steven Anderson have all opted out of the 2020 season and all three plan to enter the transfer portal as graduate transfers. According to the Sun Herald, wide receiver and kick returner Jaylond Adams has also opted out of the 2020 season although it is not clear if he is in the transfer portal.

Turner and Boothe are two of the most productive defensive players in recent Southern Miss history. Turner has logged 14.5 sacks and 30.5 tackles for loss across the last three seasons and was named first-team All-Conference USA in 2018. Boothe has been limited by injuries in the past two seasons but has still made 175 tackles with 22.5 tackles for loss since 2017. Anderson has rushed for nine touchdowns in the last two seasons. He was Southern Miss' third-leading rusher in 2019 and second-leading rusher in 2018. - Clarion Ledger

  08/18/20 - Joey GatewoodrSr/2024, Louisville, 6-4, 241 (DS#45 TE) + More +

  Kentucky football opened preseason practice Tuesday, but coach Mark Stoops is still waiting to learn if a key transfer will be eligible to play this fall. UK finished filing the paperwork for former Auburn quarterback Joey Gatewood's application for a transfer waiver to allow him to play this fall earlier this summer, but the school has yet to hear back from the NCAA with a final ruling. "We expect an answer here relatively soon," Stoops said Tuesday before his team's first preseason practice. "I don't think it's appropriate to speculate on what I expect at this point in time."

The No. 49 recruit and No. 1 athlete in the 2018 high school class according to the 247Sports Composite, Gatewood lost the Auburn starting job to freshman Bo Nix, the No. 1-ranked quarterback in the 2019 class and son of Auburn legend Patrick Nix, last fall. He appeared in seven games as Nix's backup, completing 5 of 7 passes for 54 yards and two touchdowns and gaining 149 yards and three touchdowns on 29 carries, before deciding to transfer. Gatewood has not revealed specifics about his case for a transfer waiver but confirmed to reporters in February he hoped the NCAA would allow him to play this season. Since Gatewood already redshirted at Auburn in 2018, he would lose a year of eligibility if unable to play this fall. - Courier Journal

  08/14/20 - Yasir AbdullahrSr/2023, Louisville, 6-1, 237 (DS#9 OLB) + More +

  Yasir Abdullah had a strong sophomore season, despite having to learn a new defense. He tallied 45 tackles, four for a loss, one sack and two fumble recoveries, but there was still room to improve. As he and co-defensive coordinator (and outside linebackers coach) Cort Dennison talked about ways Abdullah could improve, they discussed a variety of things. One of them was his weight. Entering last season Abdullah was listed at 218 pounds, and as the outside linebacker playing the "Dog" position for Louisville, he was undersized. The "Dog" linebacker is the one who is often a pass rusher on passing downs and sets the edge against opposing offensive tackles, too.

Abdullah will admit that he struggled to do that last year, so he went to work on his body. As the second week of fall camp nears its end, Abdullah is around 235 pounds. The added weight along with his instinct and athleticism has Dennison raving about Abdullah entering the season. "Yasir is one of the most athletic and fastest players on our football team," Dennison said before fall camp began. "Any time you get a guy that is 225 or 230 that can run like he can you can do things defensively and create mismatches." - Courier Journal

  08/01/20 - *Tutu AtwellJr/2021, Louisville, 5-09, 155 (DS#15 WR) + More +

  Atwell might be one of the most influential receivers in the country, just because of his speed alone. The junior wide receiver said he ran a 4.27 40-yard dash last year, and when you watch him on the field, you can believe it. Last year, he tallied 1,272 yards, 12 touchdowns and 18.43 yards per reception. He ranked first in the ACC in yards, second in touchdowns and fourth in yards per reception. When Satterfield's offense was able to use its run game to set up the pass so well, Atwell fit perfectly in the scheme. They used him in jet sweeps and even let him throw a touchdown to Marshon Ford in the Music City Bowl. This year, Atwell might be an even bigger weapon. He'll be the focus of every defense that Louisville plays, although that still might not be enough, because he's just faster than everybody on the field. He eclipsed 100 yards seven times last year and five times in the last six games of the season, showing that it didn't matter if defenses had film on him. - Courier Journal

  2020 MANNING AWARD PRESEASON WATCH LIST: Micale Cunningham, Jr., Louisville,...Cunningham, who was named the Most Valuable Player in the Music City Bowl, is coming off a strong sophomore campaign in 2019. He started 11 of 13 games at quarterback, throwing for 2,065 yards on 112-of-179 passing with 22 touchdowns to just five interceptions, also rushing 122 times for 482 yards and six touchdowns. He threw for over 200 yards in six games, including a career high 288 yards in a 41-39 victory over Boston College. The native of Montgomery, Ala., set the school record for passing efficiency at 194.45 and would have finished second nationally, but didn't have enough passing attempts to meet NCAA standards. He led the nation in passing yards per completion at 18.44 yards and was tops in passing completions of 70 and 80 yards. - Louisville Football

  07/31/20 - *Javian HawkinsrSo/2021, Louisville, 5-08, 183 (DS#12 RB) + More +

  Hawkins busted onto the scene last year and was one of the best running backs not just in the ACC, but the country. He earned All-ACC second team honors, ranked seventh in the nation in rushing, broke the school mark for rushing yards by a running back and set a new Louisville mark for the most rushing yards in a season by a freshman with 1,525 yards. The redshirt-freshman was fairly consistent throughout the season, as well. He scored nine touchdowns, averaged 117.31 yards per game and tallied eight 100-yard games. His best game of the season was 233 yards and one touchdown against Syracuse. Hawkins will be getting plenty of touches, once again, this season with a chance to put together an even better season. - Courier Journal
