Overview
- Colandrea told ESPN he intends to enter the NCAA transfer portal when the offseason window opens Jan. 2, with one year of eligibility remaining.
- He delivered a career-best 2025 season at UNLV with 3,459 passing yards, 649 rushing yards and 33 total touchdowns, earning conference Offensive Player of the Year honors and ranking No. 3 nationally in total offense.
- The junior reversed comments made before the Frisco Bowl that he would stay at UNLV, and his agency amplified reports of his plan to enter the portal.
- He will be represented in the process by Noah Reisenfeld and Adie von Gontard of Young Money APAA Sports, and is viewed as one of the portal’s most experienced options as a 32-game starter.
- The NCAA transfer window runs Jan. 2–16, and entering it allows contact with other programs while leaving open the possibility of a return to UNLV.
