OGDEN Weber State coach Jay Hill doesn t make a habit of signing Division I transfers to add to the Football Championship Subdivision power he s built in Northern Utah; just eight of them dot his roster in 2021.
But when the right players fall his way, he s willing to take a look and bring in the appropriate players.
He found two of them Wednesday in UNLV s Randal Grimes, a former USC transfer; and Tennessee s Jordan Allen, a former four-star defensive back who the Wildcats will allow to convert back to tight end.
Grimes and Allen joined the program as mid-year enrollees, but rather than preparing for spring practices, the duo are working out as the rest of the team prepares for the six-game, Big Sky season that kicks off Feb. 27 at Idaho State.
