PITTSBURGH -- The Pitt Panthers still have one more game left in their 2023 season but they have already started looking into the transfer portal for some potential additions to next year's roster. 

Former Texas A&M wideout Raymond Cottrell told On3's Hayes Fawvett that he has heard from 23 schools since entering the transfer portal and Pitt is one of them. Florida, Oklahoma, Ole Miss, Miami, Colorado, Tennessee, Texas, Penn State, Virginia and a host of others also reached out. 

Coming out of high school, Cottrell was a unanimous four-star recruit and consensus top-50 player in Florida's class of 2023. ESPN ranked him as high as the No. 162 player and the No. 23 wide receiver in his class. 

Cottrell appeared in three games for the Aggies, who recently fired head coach Jimbo Fisher, this season and caught one pass for 13 yards and a touchdown against Louisiana-Monroe.
