Coastal Carolina is losing two key football players to Atlantic Coast Conference schools, according to reports and social media posts.
Sophomore defensive end Jeffrey Gunter is transferring to Syracuse, according to The Daily Orange and Cusenation.com, while sophomore offensive lineman Brock Hoffman is transferring to Virginia Tech, according to Twitter posts on his account and the Virginia Tech Football account.
They are two of the four Coastal players who entered the NCAA Transfer Portal this offseason, and will be big losses.
Gunter was a First Team All-Sun Belt Conference selection after this past season – the only Chanticleer named to either the conference’s first or second teams – and Hoffman has started all 24 Coastal games since he enrolled at the school.
