JUST IN: Georgia RB Trevor Etienne Shocks College Football, Transfers to Oklahoma for Final Season
In a stunning move, Georgia Bulldogs running back Trevor Etienne has decided to spend his final year of college football eligibility with the Oklahoma Sooners. ESPN broke the news, revealing that Etienne’s decision was influenced by several factors, including playing time, offensive fit, and potential NFL Draft stock.
Etienne, who transferred to Georgia from Florida ahead of the 2024 season, was expected to be a key contributor in the Bulldogs’ backfield. However, with Georgia’s deep rotation of running backs, he may have sought a larger role in Oklahoma’s high-powered offense under head coach Brent Venables.
The Sooners, set to enter their first season in the SEC, could provide Etienne with the opportunity to showcase his skills in a system that has produced top-tier running backs in recent years. With Oklahoma aiming to make an immediate impact in their new conference, Etienne’s addition could be a game-changer.
While Georgia fans may be surprised by his departure, the move highlights the ever-changing landscape of college football, where NIL deals, depth charts, and personal development all play a role in a player’s career decisions.
