Former five-star DL Tunmise Adeleye intends to transfer from Texas A&M

Former five-star recruit and Texas A&M defensive end Tunmise Adeleye intends to enter the transfer portal, per a report from Rivals national analyst Nick Harris. Adeleye was the No. 25 overall prospect in the 2021 recruiting cycle when he inked with Jimbo Fisher and the Aggies.

Adeleye took a redshirt season during his initial year on campus. This season, the former blue chip prospect appeared in two games, recording six total tackles and credited with 0.5 tackles for loss. An early season injury prevented Adeleye from making a mark on the Aggies' depth chart.

Initially committed to Ohio State, Adeleye was a force on the high school level at Katy (Texas) Tompkins. He had an offer sheet that featured Alabama, Florida, Michigan, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, and Texas.

Tunmise Adeleye was ranked as the No. 3 strongside defensive end when he signed with A&M out of high school. Running back LJ Johnson, linebacker Ish Harris, defensive end Elijah Jeudy, and defensive end Donell Harris also intend to transfer from the Aggies.
