Jacksonville State defender set to enter NCAA transfer portal
A veteran defender for Jacksonville State will enter the NCAA transfer portal less than two months before the football season begins.
Linebacker Dajwon DeLoach, who was a part of Jax State’s first FBS signing class, announced his intention to enter the portal on Tuesday.
He will have two seasons of eligibility remaining.
Last season saw DeLoach play in eight games for Jax State before a season-ending injury, logging 13 tackles (six solo) with one quarterback hurry against Eastern Michigan. He had a career-high four tackles against No. 22 Louisville.
In 2023, he played in all 12 games for the Gamecocks — mostly on special teams — and logged one tackle.
A native of Columbus, Georgia, DeLoach logged 58 tackles, 10 quarterback hurries, four tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks and two forced fumbles as a senior at Northside High School.
He is one of two players for Jax State to announce their intentions to enter the transfer portal on Tuesday, along with wide receiver Cameran Lloyd; Lloyd did not see action last season and will have four seasons of eligibility remaining.
