One Power Five transfer could soon make a Group of Five school his new college football home.
Earlier this offseason, Kyriq McDonald (pictured, left) decided to transfer from Alabama and continue his collegiate playing career elsewhere. According to al.com, and per a source, that elsewhere could very well be Cincinnati.
According to the same website, the defensive back might pay a visit to the AAC school’s campus as early as this week.
McDonald was a three-star member of Alabama’s 2017 recruiting class. After redshirting as a true freshman, McDonald played in 11 games this past season. Twice, he was named as the Crimson Tide’s Special Teams Player of the Week.
Barring something unforeseen, McDonald will be forced to sit out the 2019 season. He would then have two seasons of eligibility at his disposal beginning with the 2020 season.
