Texas Tech defensive lineman Nelson Mbanasor announced via Twitter that he intends to transfer and continue his collegiate football and academic career elsewhere.
Mbanasor's name was already taken off Texas Tech's online roster as it appears he won't be finishing the 2018 season.
The 6-foot-3, 270-pound redshirt freshman played in all 10 games this season and recorded nine total tackles, 0.5 tackles for loss, one pass breakup and a fumble recovery.
According to 247Sports.com, Mbanasor was the 34th-ranked defensive end in the nation when he was recruited by Texas Tech in 2017.
