Clemson University's sophomore power forward, RJ Godfrey, has entered the transfer portal after averaging 6.1 points and 3.4 rebounds per game this season. Godfrey, ranked No. 146 by Rivals in the class of 2022, started one game and played in 33 this season. Despite expressing optimism about Clemson's future in the NCAA tournament, Godfrey decided to transfer, leaving a significant gap in the Tigers' front court. Several programs, including LSU, Auburn, and Georgia, have shown interest in recruiting Godfrey, whose father played at Georgia and has connections to former Clemson assistant Antonio Reynolds Dean at Georgia. Godfrey's decision marks the first notable transfer from Clemson this season, prompting reflections on the competitive nature of the transfer portal in college sports.

This is the first surprise of transfer portal season for Clemson. RJ Godfrey was presumably going to have a big role in the Tigers' front court next season. Makes you think about Brad Brownell's recent comment about the portal and "shark-infested waters." https://t.co/6eTYamB2K1
Clemson's RJ Godfrey to @ClemsonTigerNet post-Elite Eight: "I really do believe this is not our last time here. We're gonna be back ... I'm just so thankful for these guys and I can't wait to get back on the court next year." Entered portal 13 days later. Tough loss for Tigers
