Alabama LB Eyabi Anoma re-enters NCAA transfer portal

Two days after we learned that Eyabi Anoma was not attending classes at Alabama, it now appears he has decided to leave the university altogether.

The linebacker has entered his name into the NCAA transfer portal for the second time this year, according to AL.com. 

Anoma previously entered the portal in February, but then changed his mind and withdrew his name 24 hours later. He took part in Alabama’s spring drills earlier this year and had a sack in the A-Day Game.

A former five star player according to the industry-generated 247Sports Composite, Anoma appeared in a dozen games for the Crimson Tide last season as a true freshman.

The Baltimore native was looking at a potential backup outside linebacker position this coming season after the Tide lost starter Christian Miller to the NFL Draft.

Anoma would become the sixth player to leave Alabama by way of transfer this year, following quarterback Jalen Hurts (Oklahoma), offensive lineman Richie Petitbon (Illinois), defensive back Kyriq McDonald (Cincinnati), long snapper Scott Meyer (Vanderbilt), and quarterback Layne Hatcher (Arkansas State).
