With TCU set to lose key senior wide receivers such as All-American Eric McAlister and reliable veteran Joseph Manjack IV, the Horned Frogs went into the transfer portal and secured a commitment from South
Alabama redshirt freshman Jeremy Scott. The 6-foot-3, 208-pounder from Jackson, Mississippi redshirted last season, but broke out for the Jaguars this season, catching 24 passes for 417 yards and four touchdowns with a season-long reception of 74 yards. Scott is the seventh transfer portal addition and the first wide receiver added by TCU in this portal cycle. The redshirt freshman will arrive in Fort Worth with three years of eligibility remaining.
Scott, who averaged 17.4 yards per reception this season, went over 100 yards against both Georgia State and Louisiana. Rated as both a three-star transfer prospect and a three-star recruit out of Callaway High School, where he earned All-State honors, Scott will join a wide receiver room that is expected to return key players such as Jordan Dwyer, Terry Shelton and Ed Small. Chris Hummer of 247Sports reported on Jan. 2 that Scott was expected to visit Georgia, Ole Miss, Syracuse, Houston and Baylor. But Scott has opted to choose TCU.
