USC transfer WR DJ Jordan signs with Arizona

Danby: Daniel Hager01/08/26DanielHagerOn3

USC transfer wide receiver DJ Jordan has signed with Arizona, On3’s Pete Nakos reports.

In his freshman season at USC, Jordan hauled in five receptions for 38 yards.

Prior to enrolling at USC, Jordan was ranked as a four-star prospect and the No. 98 overall player in the 2024 class, according to the On3 Consensus. He was the No. 20-ranked wide receiver in his class and the No. 8 overall player from the state of Utah, hailing from Sierra Canyon.

Under second-year head coach Brent Brennan, the Wildcats posted a 9-4 record and recorded its second nine-win season in the past three years.

Brent Brennan discussed the Transfer Portal prior to Holiday Bowl

Prior to Arizona‘s Holiday Bowl clash against SMU, Brennan gave his take on the Transfer Portal.

“The way that you don’t know how it’s going to help… what will it feel like after spring practice? To me, that portal was always the most — I don’t know the right word for it — I think it was just the most disappointing or challenging,” Brennan said. “That’s because of a couple things. Number one, you could have brought a player in in December. You could have paid him so much money, and then he can leave after four months in your program. And you’re like, oh my gosh, what a bad investment that was.”

“If you’re trying to make great decisions with how you spend the (revenue) share and how you do that, there’s no way to be 1,000 percent on it. And then, I also think there’s also those situations where everyone else goes to spring practice, and it’s like, ‘well we have that need at this point, at this position?’ And then they say, like, ‘well, where is a good player at that position? And then let’s go back door and find a way to get to him’. So then it gets a little bit complicated. So I like the idea of the single portal. Where it’s at is fine with me. If they want to move it, that’s fine, whatever, just as long as we know what we have for the year, for a year.”

“I like the idea of us building kind of mostly through the portal as we as we get into February, because we’re going to have a chance to build the chemistry, build the culture, and build the team. I think that’s one of those things that’s gonna be very, very important for Arizona football. We’re gonna have to build great teams here, and so as we do that, we’re gonna need time with those players here. On task and together and putting the work together and going through all the tough stuff together.”
