South Alabama has added former Kansas State linebacker Gavin Forsha to its program for 2023, a source confirmed to AL.com.

Forsha (6-foot-3, 225 pounds) played in nine games for the Wildcats in 2022, totaling 10 tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss, a sack and a pass breakup. He has two seasons of eligibility remaining, plus a redshirt year if necessary.

Forsha has not publicly announced his commitment, but updated his Twitter bio to indicate that he’s now a member of the South Alabama program. He visited Mobile earlier this month and was offered a scholarship by the Jaguars on May 12.

Originally from the Nashville, Tenn., area, Forsha spent one season at Tyler (Texas) Junior College before transferring to Kansas State. He was an all-conference pick at Tyler in 2021, when he totaled 45 tackles, 13.5 tackles for loss and 11.5 sacks.

South Alabama is looking for pass-rushing help, with former inside linebacker Quentin Wilfawn having moved from inside linebacker to outside in the spring. Wilfawn will be a fifth-year senior in 2023.

Forsha is the second Division I transfer to join the South Alabama program since the end of spring practice. Former Mississippi State offensive lineman Lucas Taylor, a graduate of St. Paul’s Episcopal School in Mobile, committed to the Jaguars on May 1.

South Alabama is expected to add a few more portal transfers by the time summer classes and workouts begin in early June.
