In this episode of Locked On Utes, J.T. Wistrcill and Brice Larson break down Utah’s latest moves in the transfer portal, highlighting not just the headline acquisitions but also some underrated gems who could make an impact this season. The conversation kicks off with a deep dive into Braden Pagan, the wide receiver from Utah State, and his potential to become Utah’s WR1. The hosts then take turns “drafting” their favorite transfer additions, spotlighting names like James Chenault, Isaiah Kemma, Cedric Jefferson, and more, discussing how each fits into Utah’s plans on both offense and defense. Brice brings his knowledge of FCS football to the table, explaining how players like Cedric Jefferson and others from smaller programs can translate their skills to the P4 level. J.T. examines key openings on the roster—especially at defensive tackle and offensive line—and why the spring transfer portal is crucial for adding final pieces, such as more depth at tight end and linebacker. If you want a comprehensive analysis of Utah’s transfer portal success, the roles new faces could play, and insight into roster needs still to be addressed, this episode is packed with perspective you won’t want to miss.
