The Auburn Tigers lose one of their most experienced defensive backs to the transfer portal as Keionte Scott has thrown his hat into the transfer ring.

Auburn redshirt freshman safety C.J. Johnson has become the latest Tiger to enter the transfer portal, according to multiple reports. Christian Clemente of 247Sports was first to report the news. In his two years with the Tigers, Johnson saw no in game action.

Former Georgia Tech star wide receiver Eric Singleton commits to Auburn football from the transfer portal for the 2025 season

The Auburn Tigers have picked up a big weapon, signing the nation's No. 1 transfer portal receiver in former Georgia Tech star Eric Singleton.

Auburn added one running back transfer during Week 1 of the portal window, signing UConn transfer Durell Robinson.

This season was another disappointing one for Hugh Freeze and the Auburn football team. The Tigers finished this season with a 5-7 record, and that was not good enough for a bowl game as six wins is needed.

As the Auburn Tigers are adding players via recruiting and the transfer portal some attrition is inevitable including the latest defensive back.

Of course, part of the reason for White's announcement could be that Auburn received a commitment from transfer quarterback Jackson Arnold on Saturday. Arnold, a sophomore, completed 154-of-246 passes for 1,421 yards, 12 touchdowns and 3 interceptions for the Oklahoma Sooners in 2024.

The Notre Dame football team is busy playing in the College Football Playoff right now, but they also have to already be preparing for the 2025 season. The transfer portal is open already, so Marcus Freeman and the Fighting Irish have to balance their CFP prep with transfer portal work.
