Middle Tennessee Head Football Coach Rick Stockstill announced today the signing of Wide Receiver Chris Perkins to a scholarship agreement.


Perkins 6’6”, 215, played last season at Pearl River Community College where he hauled in 19 passes for 318 yards and 5 touchdowns while missing 3 games due to a high ankle sprain. The Hazlehurst native originally signed with Alcorn State coming out of high school and as a true freshman hauled in 7 receptions for 127 yards.

Perkins, who redshirted in 2011, was rated as one of the Top 125 players in the state of Mississippi by the Clarion-Ledger coming out of Hazlehurst High School.

“Chris is a big, strong, physical receiver who should have an immediate impact on our offense”, said Justin Watts, MTSU receivers coach. “We look forward to having him here in January so he can go through our offseason workouts and spring practice.”

Chris garnered attention from over a dozen Division 1 colleges to include Mississippi State, Louisiana Lafayette, Troy University, North Texas, Arkansas State, Southeast Louisiana, Texas Southern, Grambling University and Alcorn State.

      Actual attendance, incredible embarrassment.

      Mississippi Valley State (12/18/24)

      I'm gonna say yes...but probably not as much as people (including me) will want. unless something has dramatically changed in the last two weeks in practice, I gotta think the rotation is still the rotation and given that we're coming in off 2 straight loses, my bet is that Hodge will want the rotation guys playing as much together as possible heading into conference play. had we beaten High Point and/or if we had a better schedule that didn't have a two week gap in games, maaaaaaaybe RH would've experimented/tried to build more depth a little more...but given circumstance I'm preparing for little more than freshmen cameos.

      Portal WR Cameron Dorner - Shepherd

      Committed to North Texas. No idea what happened to the X links above. https://www.journal-news.net/journal-news/shepherd-transfer-portal-frenzy-d1-commitments-big-offers-and-a-standout-returns-home/article_237da94a-66bd-5bc5-b98f-299985e895f2.html According to this article, he turned down offers from 12 other FBS/FCS schools to come to Denton. It also lists him as a team captain.

      Breaking: North Texas lands Miami QB Transfer (Free)

      We can complain all we want about Aune but he holds the single season record in TD passes. While QB play wasn't perfect after Fine left, it was a heck of a lot better than right before Fine got here. I completely understand that. This is no different than any HS prospect or even an FBS transfer. Not all QBs can replicate their previous success in a new system. I'd still rather have a guy who was accomplished than somebody who never saw the field. Every transfer is a risk no matter what. Your logic is severely flawed though. Cam Ward was once a big time FCS transfer and was just a Heisman finalist with that Miami team you're trashing. Joe Burrow was once a career backup on an Ohio State team that couldn't win the championship and look what he did. If you want to get even crazier with it all, Stetson Bennett was once a walk-on who then transferred to a junior college before transferring back to Georgia to win a couple National Championships. We can go on forever with this. We got a guy with success at the D1 level. More success than Chandler Rogers had. There's no reason to believe he won't work out here.
