Transfers add needed depth at running back, cornerback for WMU football

Western Michigan football coach Tim Lester announced three new additions to the program on Friday.

Running backs La'Darius Jefferson (Michigan State) and Jaxson Kincaide (Nevada,) along with cornerback Therran Coleman (Pittsburgh) have all signed financial aid agreements to attend the university and join the football program for the 2020-21 season.

Jefferson spent the last two seasons as a Spartan, playing in 17 games, where he carried the ball 97 times for 280 yards and four touchdowns. He added 10 receptions for 63 yards. The 6-1, 223-pound back was formerly named Michigan Mr. Football and Gatorade Player of the Year when he played at Muskegon High School.
