Oklahoma is losing another defensive back to the transfer portal.

Kendall Dennis, a safety from Lakeland, FL, and a 4-star recruit in the 2020 recruiting class, announced Friday he'll be entering the transfer portal when it officially opens on Monday.

"After a sit down with family and many talks with God," Dennis wrote on Twitter, "I have decided to enter the transfer portal on Dec. 5."

Dennis, a third-year sophomore was the No. 198 player in the nation, according to 247 Sports, and the No. 15 cornerback in the nation. The 5-foot-11, 187-pound Dennis picked OU over offers from Florida State, Nebraska and Auburn, among others.

He's the third Oklahoma DB to enter the portal this week, joining sophomore Jordan Mukes and senior Joshua Eaton
