Former Maryland inside linebacker Chance Campbell is transferring to the University of Mississippi, he announced Monday, reuniting with former Terp coach D.J. Durkin.
Campbell, a Calvert Hall graduate, announced in late January his intention to transfer. He was an All-Big Ten honorable mention choice this past fall after ranking second in the conference in tackles per game (11.0) and third in solo stops per game (5.7). In four starts, he led Maryland (2-3) in tackles (43) and tackles for loss (5 ½) and had 1 ½ sacks.
While a significant loss, the Terps will have talent and depth at the position entering the 2021 season, with returning players such as Fa’Najae Gotay and Ruben Hyppolite II.
