Caziah Holmes issues statement after entering transfer portal
Following reports that he entered the transfer portal Monday, Penn State running back Caziah Holmes issued a statement regarding his decision via social media.
“My time at Penn State has been a great time with all the ups and downs. So grateful for all the lifelong relationships I’ve made during my time there,” Holmes wrote. “With that being said I’m officially in the transfer portal and excited to see what’s next in my future.”
Following multiple injuries to multiple running backs last season he was forced into a more extended role with 56 carries totaling 254 yards rushing.
Holmes was a four-star recruit coming out of high school in Florida, per the On3 Consensus. He was recruited and offered by the likes of Ohio State, Florida and Miami, among others, meaning he’ll have no shortage of offers coming his way once teams begin reaching out.
