Since the transfer portal opened in October of 2018, it has been one of the hottest topics in college athletics. While the portal hasn't been utilized as much in wrestling as it has in football and basketball, there are still plenty of big-time transfers that have already gone down and talented wrestlers currently looking for a new home.

This season we'll be keeping track of every NCAA D1 wrestler that goes into the transfer portal, and letting you know where they transfer to. I began keeping track from the first official day of the season, October 10, 2020. The year listed for each wrestler is their current year of eligibility. Wrestlers are listed as graduates if that's what they have entered in the portal as. 

If you see someone missing, know where a wrestler is transferring to, or just want to talk, you can email me at jd.rader@flosports.tv 

Notable Entrants Still Available 

After a notable entrant commits to a new school, we'll remove them from this section. 

• Arizona State's Trey Munoz is now in the portal. He was a big time recruit when he joined the Sun Devils, and he'll be an interesting prospect for another school now.

• NCAA Champ Nick Suriano is the biggest name to hit the portal since...the last time Nick Suriano transferred. His "do not contact" status leaves all kinds of questions about where he might end up.

• NCAA Qualifier Boo Dryden will be leaving Minnesota. He only has one year of eligibility remaining, but he could fill in nicely for someone next season.

• Jaden Abas is another Cardinal who raised his stock at the NCAA Championships. The former top 10 recruit in the class of 2019, finished seventh and picked up a big win over Max Murin in the bloodround. Abas also won a Pac-12 title and Southern Scuffle title during his redshirt year beating Andrew Alirez in the finals.

• While he never started a dual for North Carolina, Gabe Tagg was a top 40 recruit in the class of 2019 and won a Junior world bronze medal in 2019. Including the seven matches he won while training at the Olympic Training Center his senior year of high school, Tagg was 22-6 against collegiate opponents. 

• This is the second time that Adam Busiello has hit the transfer portal. The three-time Super 32 champion and five-time New York state champion originally went to Arizona State before transferring to Penn State in January of 2020. Busiello has wrestled in just one tournament on the collegiate level and has a career record of 3-2. 

• Like Busiello, this is Winston's second time in the portal. The Missouri prep product originally committed to North Carolina before signing with Minnesota as the 27th ranked recruit in the class of 2019. However, he never wrestled a match for the Gophers and went into the portal for the first time in November of 2019. Winston would quickly transfer to SIUE where he went 4-1 in open tournaments, and the lone loss was an injury default. He did not wrestle a match for the Cougars this season. 

• Ohio State's upperweight depth took another hit as Chase Singletary has entered the transfer portal. The Buckeye big man has wrestled his first three seasons in Columbus at heavyweight where he compiled a 45-12 record. At 285 he picked up wins over Mason Parris, Matt Stencel, Conan Jennings, Demetrius Thomas, and John Borst. After a 2-2 performance at the 2019 NCAA Championships, Singletary started the season ranked in the top 15, but his season was cut short just three matches in due to injury. This past season with Tate Orndorff and Gary Traub at heavyweight, he made the cut to 197 to try to get into the lineup. Singletary was 4-1 on the year, but it was Hoffman who got the nod for Ohio State at the Big Ten Championships. 

• Shortly after Stanford announced their decision to discontinue the wrestling program following this season, Real Woods went into the transfer portal. Just a few months later, in hopes the program would be saved, Wood removed his name from the portal. However, with no signs pointing to the Stanford administration changing their mind, Woods has entered his name back into the portal. Woods fell shortly of the podium in St. Louis falling in the bloodround, but including his redshirt year, has a 47-5 career record as a collegiate wrestler. Woods will work to finish his Stanford degree and likely not officially transfer to his new school until the second semester. 

• Jakason Burks became the third member of the 2020 Big Board to enter the portal. The Nebraska native finished his high school career as the 54th ranked recruit in the class. He put together a 6-2 record this season, but one of the losses came to Dom Demas when he bumped up in the second Bedlam dual so that the Cowboys wouldn't have a forfeit. Burks looks like a career 125-pounder and will have four years of eligibility remaining. 

• Joe Grello is yet another former NCAA qualifier to jump in the portal. During his career at Rutgers, Grello put together a 41-31 mark, qualified for the NCAA Championships in 2019 where he won two matches beating Brit Wilson and Kimball Bastian. Injuries have cut Grello's past two seasons short. Jackson Turley made the most of his opportunity last season as he stepped up for the Scarlet Knights after Grello went down and ended up on the podium in St. Louis. 

• Zack Trampe becomes yet another two-time NCAA qualifier to enter the portal. Throughout his career at 133 and 141, Trampe has a career record of 31-10. The former Binghamton Bearcat owns wins over Jarrett Trombley, Devan Turner, Zach Price, and Casey Cobb.
