Central Michigan Chippewas safety Devonni Reed entered the NCAA transfer portal on Monday morning and within hours, the Texas Longhorns extended an offer to the graduate transfer.
Colorado and South Carolina also extended offers to Reed in the immediate aftermath of his decision.
The offer from Texas confirms the interest of head coach Steve Sarkisian and his staff in adding experienced depth at the position after losing BJ Foster, Chris Adimora, and Tyler Owens to the transfer portal and Brenden Schooler to graduation.
A 6’0, 195-pounder from Detroit, Reed was a consensus three-star prospect in the 2017 recruiting class who did have a Power Five offer from Minnesota before landing in Mount Pleasant.
