6. Walter Nolen (DL, Ole Miss)

Nolen was the second highest ranked player in the 2023 transfer portal according to On3. Alongside returning Ole Miss defensive lineman JJ Pegues, the two should wreck shop and plug holes all season long for the Rebels in 2024.

Nolen is a former five star and was the number one player in the country according to On3 for the class of 2022 according to On3. He comes over from Texas A&M after the firing of head coach Jimbo Fisher in 2023.

5. Rocket Sanders (RB, South Carolina)

If Sanders can return to his form in 2022, this is huge for the Gamecocks. Sanders gained 1,443 yards and scored 10 touchdowns for the Razorbacks in 2022 before an injury cut his 2023 season short.

Now back at full health, Sanders transfers to Shane Beamer and the Gamecocks for 2024 and is very much under the radar because of the injury last season. Alongside dual threat quarterback LaNorris Sellers in Columbia, look for this to be quite the one-two punch for the Gamecocks.
