• Former Tualatin football star enters the transfer portal (oregonlive.com) — A former Tualatin High School football standout, tight end Jayden Fortier, is entering the college transfer portal after two injury-affected seasons at Arizona State. Fortier, once Oregon’s top-rated recruit who led the Timberwolves to a state title game, hasn’t yet played in college, and his move comes as ASU also faces possible quarterback changes.
