When BYU wide receiver and All-American kick returner Keelan Marion entered the transfer portal, he immediately became one of the most soughtafter players available in this cycle.

Over his four-year career, Marion has compiled 76 Catches for 1,125 yards, and 12 total TDs including a pair of kickoff returns this past season.

Since entering the portal, Marion has reportedly been contacted by over 20 schools, and four of them reside in the Big 12.

 

Colorado, Baylor, and Arizona State are among On3’s list of programs interested in adding Marion, along with Ohio State, Notre Dame, and Penn State, three of the four teams that appeared in the College Football Playoff semifinals a season ago.

Additionally, another Big 12 program has joined in the race for his services, as Sports Illustrated’s Schuyler Callihan reports that West Virginia has thrown its hat in the ring.

Marion started his collegiate career at UConn, and was immediately a contributor for the Huskies, totaling 474 receiving yards and five touchdowns as a true freshman.

After an injury-riddled sophomore campaign, Marion entered the portal and transferred to BYU. Now, he’ll be looking for a home to spend his final year of eligibility.
