Duke has only brought in three players via the transfer portal that have stuck on the roster thus far, but they convinced an FCS All-American Offensive Lineman to flip his commitment from University of North Texas today. Jacob Long, who earned Second Team All-American honors after a monster season at Angelo State, originally opted to return back to Texas where he played high school ball but the Blue Devils' coaching staff remained in pursuit as they lost a few linemen to the portal themselves this Spring.
Long, who is 6-foot-4 and 330 pounds, played guard for Angelo State and projects as an interior lineman for the Blue Devils. He has two seasons of eligibility remaining and will arrive at Duke this week. He was part of an offensive line that led the conference in offensive yards and points while finishing 24th overall in total offense in DII.
