Former San Jose State cornerback Jay'Vion Cole revealed on social media Sunday that he is transferring to Texas.

Cole was considered one of the top cornerbacks available in the transfer portal.

Cole intercepted seven passes over his first two college seasons — four at FCS Cal Poly in 2022 and three last season in his lone campaign for the Spartans.

The 5-foot-10, 175-pound Cole has top-notch speed and was a sprinter in high school. He is a native of Oakland, Calif.

The Longhorns have been on the lookout for a cornerback with Ryan Watts moving on to the NFL as a sixth-round draft choice by the Pittsburgh Steelers and Terrance Brooks recently entering the transfer portal.
