Sutton has been forced to transfer back home to Texas due to a family issue. Hailing from Texarkana, Sutton is friends with several of the East Texas players on the roster, particularly Kenny Harrison. Due to NCAA transfer rules, it is likely that Sutton would be forced to sit out this season unless he is awarded a hardship waiver. Fortunately for UTSA, Sutton would still have three years to play for the Roadrunners if he joins the team. It will be interesting to see if the UTSA coaching staff opts to take Sutton on the team, as they turned down four-star defensive tackle Donald Hopkins earlier in the week. While I have confirmed that Sutton does have extremely high interest in UTSA, remember that transfer situations are always a nightmare from a logistical, academic, and timing stand point, so reserve exuberance until the situation resolves itself over the next few days.
