Tulane Adds Former Alabama Wide Receiver From The Transfer Portal

Tulane Adds WR Shazz Preston

Preston was one of many high-profile recruits who didn’t see the field much in 2023. He appeared in 10 games over the past two years, mostly on special teams and in games where they were blowing out inferior teams. The potential is there. Preston was ranked as the sixth-best wide receiver in the 2022 class. This is a huge get for the Green Wave. The program is looking to continue its recent success and maybe even sneak into the College Football Playoff.

NIL Isn’t Just For The Large Programs

Many people were concerned that with the rise of NIL, smaller programs would never be able to compete. Make no mistake, Tulane is paying for Preston’s services. It is great that a smaller program can still get top-tier talent in this college football landscape. Many were wondering whether smaller programs would suffer, but Tulane is proving that narrative to be false. For Preston, it likely guarantees he gets way more playing time in the upcoming season.

The Green Wave fan base is looking for another double-digit wins season. They are building a high-octane offense, which should help them make some noise in the 2024 season.
