Luke McCaffrey is off to the third school of his college football career. After leaving Louisville in early June, McCaffrey has a new destination.

The former four-star quarterback is off to Rice, according to Sam Khan Jr. of The Athletic. McCaffrey originally began at Nebraska before transferring to Louisville back in March.

Now, he has another fresh start at Rice.

I don't know this for sure, obviously, but I think Mack brought in an "intensity" in practice the players may not have been used to.  Some of them probably stuck it out a year or so and figured they weren't cut out for it.

Not official, but reports out that former five star linebacker from USC Palaie Gaoteote V is enrolled at OSU. Was rated the tenth best prospect in the portal by 247 last time I looked. Don't know a ton about him other than he has dealt with injuries in each of his three seasons at USC.

His younger brother flipped from USC to MSU, and was I think MSU's highest rated recruit.  There was some early speculation his brother would follow him, but one of our insiders reported back in May, he seemed pretty locked into OSU.
