Memphis fifth-year senior forward Tyreek Smith is reportedly on the move once again.

Smith entered the transfer portal ahead of the Tigers' season opener against Missouri, the university confirmed in a statement to The Commercial Appeal.

"Tyreek informed the staff that he would like to explore other opportunities," the Memphis athletic department stated (h/t Cameron Salerno of CBS Sports). "We would like to thank Tyreek for his hard work and dedication while at the University of Memphis and wish him the best of luck."

Smith transferred to Memphis from SMU and also had stops at Oklahoma State and Texas Tech.
