All new transfers hope to make a favorable first impression, but not all immediately turn heads during spring practice. And now with spring practices taking place across the country, here are five transfers who have already opened eyes at their new school:
DB Domani Jackson – Alabama (USC)
The skinny: After losing both of their starting cornerbacks to the NFL, the Tide seem to have hit a homerun with Jackson’s addition. The USC transfer, who selected Alabama over Michigan, has been a consistent playmaker during the first half of spring practice, and with his 6-foot-1, 190-pound frame, he should make an immediate impact for the Tide this fall.
WR Colbie Young – Georgia (Miami-Florida)
The skinny: Georgia hasn’t had too many holes on their roster in recent seasons, but the lack of a dynamic large wide receiver may have been one. However, that may no longer be an issue, as Young’s performance this spring will add another potent weapon for the Bulldogs, especially in the red zone. At 6-foot-5 and 215-pounds, he should quickly become a fan favorite for Georgia fans in Athens.
