Two years ago, then-USC true freshman linebacker Tackett Curtis elected to enter the transfer portal. He transferred to Wisconsin, where he spent the past two seasons. Now, Curtis is reportedly set to enter the portal once again.
Curtis arrived at USC as a highly-touted recruit out of the state of Louisiana in the 2023 cycle. In his lone season with the Trojans, he recorded 40 total tackles, two sacks, a forced fumble, and a pass defended. Following the season, however, Curtis decided to enter the NCAA transfer portal and ultimately landed at Wisconsin.
Curtis spent the past two seasons with the Badgers. In 2024, he returned to the Coliseum with Wisconsin and had two tackles in a 38-21 Trojans victory. Now, he will enter the portal again in search of a new home for his final season of eligibility.
The NCAA transfer portal will officially be open from January 2-16. However, due to restrictions caused by the academic calendar and the reality that pretty much everyone tampers nowadays, expect plenty of players to announce their intentions to enter the portal before then so that they can begin to look towards finding their new schools.
