Washington transfer CB Jabbar Muhammad commits to Oregon over Alabama, Texas
The hot streak for the Texas Longhorns in the transfer portal hit a major setback on Saturday as former Washington Huskies cornerback Jabbar Muhammad committed to the Oregon Ducks over the Longhorns and the Alabama Crimson Tide following a visit to Eugene.
Last week, Texas appeared on the verge of landing Muhammad when head coach Steve Sarkisian reportedly took the lead with Muhammad’s recruitment while making him a high priority for the program and trying to lock down his commitment to avoid the lockdown corner taking other visits.
Instead, Muhammad went through with his plans to see his former head coach Kalen DeBoer at Alabama and then tripped to Oregon, which was able to secure his pledge.
“Honestly, just who’s gonna be able to contend. As a competitor you always want to be one of the last ones standing. I want to get to the final 12, the playoffs. I want to be in a system where I can be used in a variety of different ways to show my talents,” Muhammad told Ducks Digest regarding what would influence his decision.
“And I want to be on a really good football team. Like I said my last year, really good teams are really important for going to the next level. And that’s also what I want to do. I also want to get in a situation where I’m propelled and ready to go to the NFL.”
A consensus three-star prospect in the 2020 class, Muhammad was ranked ouside the top 1,000 players nationally when he signed with Oklahoma State over five other offers, including Colorado and Texas Tech. With the Cowboys, Muhammad played in 31 games, starting 13, recording 71 tackles, one interception, and one forced fumblerd, both in 2022 when he became a full-time starter.
After transferring to Washington, the 5’10, 183-pounder emerged as one of the natilon’s best rcover coruitmnentrs, notching 46 tackles, three interceptiorns, two sacks, and one fumble recovery.
With the miss on Muhammad, Texas has a remaining need at boundary cornerback it will have to address through the transfer portal during the spring window. And despite winning a number of high-profile recruitments in the portal, Oregon got the best of Sarkisian and his staff for Muhammad and Houston defensive tackle transfer Ja’Marree Caldwell, keeping the Longhorns from assembling its ideal group of transfers.

All four crew members who were on board are safe, according to media reports.
Maintenance personnel and law enforcement officials remained at the scene into the early hours of Tuesday as authorities assessed the aircraft and investigated the circumstances surrounding the landing.
See what a ‘super’ El Niño could bring
USA TODAY Network reporter Brandi D. Addison breaks down what a strong El Niño could mean for weather patterns across the country.
It may be the middle of July, but the Old Farmer’s Almanac is already looking ahead to the fall with cooler temperatures ahead.
The Almanac, which has been one of the most trusted weather prediction sources for more than two centuries, recently released its fall forecast, showing a wide range of weather throughout the United States.
But what about in the Washington DC region? Here’s what the Almanac says.
What is the fall weather forecast in the Washington DC area?
DC sits along the Almanac’s Atlantic Corridor, and that region should expect a “cool, dry” fall, according to the forecast.
“Expect cooler and wetter conditions than usual this fall,” the Old Farmer’s Almanac says. “Below average temperatures are forecast, along with an uptick in precipitation over traditional averages.”
Last year, DC received 6.53 inches of rain during September, October and November — significantly lower than the city’s 30-year average of 10.50 inches, according to the National Weather Service.
September’s average temperature was 72.2 degrees, with October at 60.3 and November at 49.9 degrees. The season had an average temperature of 60.8 degrees, slightly below the 30-year average of 61.0 degrees.
What does the Farmer’s Almanac say about winter in Washington DC?
In its long-range forecast, the Almanac forecasts above average temperatures this winter in DC with snowfall below normal.
“The coldest periods will occur in mid- to late-December and early and late January,” it says. “The snowiest periods will be in late December, early January, and late February.”
The Old Farmer’s Almanac says it is 80% accurate, but a 2017 University of Illinois study found it to be just 52% accurate.
