Cade Law, who started his collegiate career as a Vanderbilt baseball player before transferring to UNC to play football, appeared in 24 total games over the past two seasons though only registered three solo tackles. Cade Law will have two seasons of collegiate eligibility remaining.
Crews Law, a true freshman in 2024, appeared in two games for North Carolina last season. He’ll have four years of eligibility remaining after qualifying for a redshirt this past season.
Crews Law signed with the Tar Heels as a three-star recruit out of Christ Presbyterian Academy in Nashville, Tenn., ranked as the 67th linebacker and No. 780 overall player in the 2024 class, according to On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
Cade Law signed with Vanderbilt as the No. 22 overall prospect and No. 3-rated catcher from Tennessee in the 2022 class, according to Perfect Game.
The spring transfer portal opened Wednesday, April 16 and will close 10 days later on Friday, April 25. As of this writing, more than 430 FBS scholarship players have entered the transfer portal this month and 3,600 players have entered in the 2024-25 portal.
More than 2,800 FBS scholarship players entered their names into the NCAA’s transfer database during the 2023-24 school year. Removing those who withdrew or went pro, the final total sat at 2,707 transfers. That means roughly 25% of all FBS scholarship players hit free agency in one year.
In data gathered over the first two years with transfer windows, the NCAA found most athletes enter the portal within the first four weeks of the portal opening. The study showed that 73% of men’s and women’s basketball undergraduate athletes entered during the first four weeks. That increased to 82% for men and 86% for women in 2024.
