While the Kansas State Wildcats haven’t made many additions this offseason to their roster, on Friday, the group landed a new name in the portal with the commitment of Western Georgia safety Mar’quavious Moss.
Moss, a 6-foot-2 defensive back from blank, received interest from multiple big-time programs after starting his career at nearby Dodge City Community College.
Moss chose the Wildcats over offers from several notable programs, including Georgia Tech, Tulane, Houston, Virginia, Nebraska, Coastal Carolina, and more. In 2024 with the Wolves, Moss recorded 36 total tackles, 4.5 sacks, two pass breakups, and a forced fumble.
Coming out of Dodge City Community College in the Class of 2024, Moss was listed as an unranked prospect by most major recruiting services. After spending one season with West Georgia, he developed into a three-star prospect on the On3 index and checked in as the 161st-ranked player in the portal and the 16th-best available safety.
The transfer portal officially opened on Monday, December 9, 2024, and will remain open until Saturday, December 28, with an exception for players on teams who play bowl games after the window closes. According to NCAA data, 2,273 FBS football players entered the transfer portal in 2023-24 school year, with 1,558 (68.5%) undergraduates and 715 (31.5%) graduate transfers. Of the entrants, 57% reported that they enrolled in another school, 8% withdrew their names from the portal, and 35% are still active, transferred to a non-NCAA school, or left their sport.
