  While the season may be over for Texas State football, the losses continue to pile up. Ten players announced their intentions to place their names in the NCAA transfer portal this week, along with star receiver Jeremiah Haydel announcing that he will enter the NFL Draft. Haydel, a senior, had one year left after the NCAA ruled this season wouldn't count toward eligibility due to COVID-19 restrictions, allowing all seniors to return. Haydel scored six touchdowns this season – four receiving, one kickoff return and one punt return. He tied with Marcell Barbee for the team lead in receptions this season with 40 grabs for 408 yards. Haydel completes his Bobcat career with 96 receptions for 1,141 yards and 11 total touchdowns. - Austin American-Statesman

"All those guys have graduated and they will not be back," Brown said. "They'll be either graduate transfers, or they'll be going to the NFL or in the workforce in business." - Raleigh News Observer

  A Texas State football player was shot and killed at The Lodge Apartments in San Marcos. Khambrail Winters, 20, was shot in the chest and later pronounced dead by Justice of the Peace Jo Anne Prado, City of San Marcos officials said. Next of kin have been notified. San Marcos police responded to The Lodge Apartments — 1975 Aquarena Springs Drive — for calls of gunshots at approximately 9:13 p.m. on Tuesday. SMPD stated that multiple callers reported individuals running from the area in addition to the gunshots being heard. Officers arrived to find Winters with a gunshot wound to the chest and immediately began life saving efforts, officials said. Hays County EMS and San Marcos Fire Department personnel responded but efforts to save Winters were unsuccessful.

SMPD stated that detectives arrived on scene to assist, where they identified and interviewed several witnesses and involved persons. Detectives discovered that Winters and two other individuals, Enalisa Blackman and Michael Ifeanacho, planned to buy drugs, police said. The drug deal was set up at the apartment complex where Blackman met two individuals to purchase a couple of ounces marijuana, officials added. SMPD said Winters was shot and died on scene during the drug deal. Blackman, 20, and Ifeanacho, 20, were arrested and charged with capital murder. Both were transported and are being held at the Hays County Jail. - San Marcos Record

  Illinois has dubbed itself "Transfer U" after aggressively adding more than a dozen notable players to its roster via the transfer portal the last two offseasons. Adding transfers isn't new. Where the Illini have gone for their transfer additions is - particularly compared to former coach Tim Beckman's pursuit of junior college players - different. Since Nick Walker opted out of the 2020 season, the active Illinois roster includes just a single JUCO player in defensive tackle Anthony Shipton. The Cerritos College (Calif.) product could factor into the rotation at defensive tackle. "Shipton, he'll tell you he needs to get stronger, but he's been about who we thought he would be," Smith said. "He got here a little bit later than the rest of the crew, but he works hard...He brings energy each day. Pleasant to be around. Now it's about him taking these next steps. First thing, getting stronger and just continuing to develop." - News Gazette Tribune

  10/09/20 - Nelson Mbanasor, rSr/2023, Texas State, 6-2, 248 (DS#75 DE) + More +

  Nelson Mbanasor had put himself into position to play a more prominent role on the Texas Tech football team this season, but his progress is on hold for the rest of 2020. A Tech spokesman confirmed Monday that the junior defensive end had suffered a season-ending injury, though he did not know any further details. In early September, defensive line coach Paul Randolph said without hesitation that Mbanasor had the best preseason camp of any player in his position room. Randolph said Mbanasor's level of play was "off the charts" in August as he put into practice points for improvement the two talked about after last season. "He took everything I said to heart," Randolph said, "and went to work immediately on it and just made a conscious decision, I think, to, "Hey, I'm going to get better in all these things that coach told me to work on." - Lubbock Avalanche Journal

  Deion Hankins rushed for three touchdowns and UTEP held Louisiana-Monroe to 7 yards rushing in a 31-6 victory on Saturday. Hankins' first touchdown, a 2-yard run, came on the play following an 82-yard pass from Gavin Hardison to Jacob Cowing. Hankins set up his second TD with a 37-yard run, scoring two plays later from the 1. Hardison threw a 38-yard pass to Devaughn Cooper to begin the third scoring drive that ended with Hankins' 8-yard score. Gavin Baechle's 42-yard field goal with 21 seconds left in the half made it 24-0. Hankins rushed for 118 yards on 22 carries. Hardison was 13-of-25 passing for 302 yards with Justin Garrett collecting 120 yards receiving and Cowing 102. Coby Suits threw a 35-yard score to Jahquan Bloomfield in the final minute of the third quarter to cap a 55-yard drive that began after a UTEP fumble. Up till then, the Warhawks didn't have a drive exceed 12 yards. Suits finished with 184 yards passing with a TD and an interception. The victory has UTEP (3-1) off to its best start since its 2010 team started 5-1. It also gave the Miners their most wins in a season since 2014 when they finished with four. - AP College Football

  09/12/20 - Jordan McCloud, rSr/2025, Texas State, 6-0, 205 (DS#30 QB) + More +

  Jordan McCloud threw for a touchdown, Noah Johnson ran for another, and South Florida beat The Citadel 27-6 on Saturday night to give Jeff Scott a win in his first game as a head coach. Scott, who had served as Clemson's co-offensive coordinator and wide receivers coach since 2015, replaced the fired Charlie Strong in December 2019. McCloud hit DeVontres Dukes for a 10-yard touchdown to make it 7-3 with 49 seconds left in the first quarter and USF (1-0) led the rest of the way. Colby Kinter, who opened the scoring with a 45-yard field goal, made a 41-yarder to pull The Citadel (0-1) within a point with 11:08 left in the second quarter but Omarion Dollison recovered a botched punt for a touchdown before Johnson's 9-yard scoring run made it 20-3 at halftime. McCloud and Johnson split time at quarterback for USF. McCloud was 11-of-16 passing for 68 yards, and Johnson completed 3 of 4 for 24 yards and had 49 yards rushing on seven carries. Kelly Joiner added eight carries for 87 yards for the Bulls, including a 3-yard TD to cap the scoring midway through the fourth quarter. - South Florida/AP College Football

  09/10/20 - Jordan McCloud, rSr/2025, Texas State, 6-0, 205 (DS#30 QB) + More +

  Third-year sophomore incumbent Jordan McCloud is expected to take the first snap Saturday when USF opens its season at home against the Citadel. First-year coach Jeff Scott said he plans to announce his starter at some point Thursday, when he releases his inaugural 2020 depth chart. Scott informed the quarterbacks of his decision Sunday night and told the team the following morning. The Tampa Bay Times has learned McCloud, a Plant High alumnus who started the final 10 games last season, will start. Depending on how the game transpires, Armwood High alumnus Noah Johnson and North Carolina transfer Cade Fortin also could play against the Bulldogs. "It's still a very close competition," Scott told reporters Tuesday afternoon. "It's gonna go on, in my estimation, for a couple of weeks...My goal is to really have that solidified by the Cincinnati game Oct. 3." - Tampa Tribune
