Transfer Portal: Running Back Kay'Ron Lynch-Adams Will Return To UMass
Under head coach Don Brown, UMass football took a noticeable step forward in 2023. A huge piece of that roster has decided he'll try to make it happen again in 2024.
Running back Kay'Ron Lynch-Adams announced Sunday through the Midnight Ride NIL Collective that he plans to play one more season, his sixth as an NCAA student-athlete, with the Minutemen.

Lynch-Adams entered the portal in December after originally posting that he would begin preparations for the NFL Draft. 2023 was, by far, his best collegiate season. The Ohio native rushed for 1157 yards with 12 touchdowns in 2023. Lynch-Adams spent the previous three seasons at UMass and the two before that with Rutgers.
The Minutemen posted a 3-9 record in 2023 - their highest win total since 2018. UMass are still searching for their first FBS bowl appearance since making the jump from FCS in 2012.
