Transfer defensive back Adrian Maddox picks Kansas State
After a brief pause, Kansas State is back on the board in the transfer portal. Georgia safety Adrian Maddox has committed to K-State.
His decision comes as a bit of a surprise, like some transfer portal commitments do. Maddox entered the transfer portal January 10 after the Bulldogs fell to Ole Miss in the College Football Playoff quarterfinals. There were no other rumored teams to be after the Georgia native, so Kansas State quietly got it done behind the scenes.
Maddox is a well traveled player at this point of his college career. His season this year was his lone year playing for Georgia. This season, he played just four games recording just four total tackles before redshirting to preserve his final season of eligibility.
He actually arrived at Georgia over the spring in the late transfer portal window and actually flipped his commitment from Florida to the Bulldogs. K-State will be his second Power Four stop.
Prior to his time for the Bulldogs, he played a season at UAB in 2024. In his time for the Blazers, he played really well and registered 44 tackles, seven deflections, two forced fumbles and also had a 99 yard pick-six against Rice.
