The Virginia Cavaliers have another NCAA Transfer Portal entry coming. This time, it’s another senior walk-on.
Running back Justin Zollar announced on Tuesday that he will enter the portal via Twitter.
“I’m officially transferring from UVA,” tweeted Zollar. “Thank you to all the coaches who helped me develop as both a man and as an athlete.
"To my brothers, y’all will always hold a special place in my heart. I will always value the hardships we’ve faced together. Wherever I end up, I will compete.”
The former Mechanicsville (Va.) Atlee standout did not appear in any games in three seasons with the football program.
The NCAA introduced the portal on Oct. 15, 2018, providing athletes a path to explore their options. Players do not need to ask permission from their coaching staff in order to transfer. They merely need to request that compliance enter their name. Usually, it takes 24-48 hours for a player to appear following their request.
Schools are free to contact a player without restriction once their name appears in the portal.
While a player entering their name in the transfer portal means they intend to explore their options, it does not necessarily mean they will leave. A player is free to withdraw his name at any time. However, schools are under no obligation to keep a player on scholarship once they enter the portal.
The first portal cycle saw 1,942 FBS players enter in the initial calendar year of its existence, per a source.
