It's going to be interesting to see what kind of road grades Ward gets back during the season. He's a legit Day 3 possibility and All-Star Bowl candidate now ... but will he hold that status, even with a big year and three-to-five top underclassmen FS/SS in the mix come Jan 18th.

  Da'Leon Ward, who was Texas Tech's primary running back for parts of the 2016 and 2018 seasons, announced Thursday he plans to transfer to Stephen F. Austin. Ward was among four players suspended by Tech coach Matt Wells early in spring practice and was among three who were never reinstated. He put his name into the NCAA transfer portal in early June. As a true freshman, the Dallas Skyline graduate took over as Tech's primary running back late in the 2016 season and finished with 103 carries for a team-high 428 rushing yards and three touchdowns.

Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury redshirted Ward in 2017, directing him to focus on academics and off-field maturity. Ward carried 79 times for 341 yards and three TDs last season. He had 17 carries for 90 yards in the season opener against Mississippi, but then missed half the season with a groin injury. He also had a combined 44 pass receptions for 327 yards and one touchdown during the two seasons he played. - Lubbock Avalanche Journal
