Freshman Oregon running back Tra Carson will transfer from Oregon, according to The Register-Guard.
Carson, a 6-foot, 227 pound native of Texarkana, Texas, ranked fourth among Oregon running backs in 2011 with 45 carries for 254 yards and a touchdown. With the departure of James to the NFL, he was expected to fill a backup role behind Kenjon Barner in 2012.
The true freshman hinted at his intent to leave with a Twitter post early this morning, which read, “Dont know what color uniform im going to be in next year.” As of now, it is unclear what prompted him to make the decision.
Carson joins Lache Seastrunk and Dontae Williams as the third running back to leave Oregon since 2010.
