EUGENE — Oregon is losing a member of its running back corps.

Darrian Felix has entered the transfer portal, according to a source with knowledge of the situation.

Felix had 34 carries for 197 yards and two touchdowns and six catches for 78 yards while appearing in seven games this season, all career-highs for the redshirt-sophomore, but he was clearly the No. 4 back on the depth chart behind CJ Verdell, Travis Dye and Cyrus Habibi-Likio.

“First off I would like to thank the University of Oregon, coach (Mario) Cristobal, also (running backs) coach (Jim) Mastro and the Jaqua learning center for giving me the opportunity to be a student-athlete,” Felix wrote via Twitter Tuesday afternoon. “I have made bonds with my brothers that will last forever! I will miss them Saturday night lights in Auzten [sic] stadium and those amazing Duck fans. I will forever be grateful for this once in a lifetime experience. With that being said I have decided to enter the Transfer Portal and pursue my student-athlete career else where [sic] ... THANK YOU OREGON.”

He had 18 carries for 127 yards and two scores during the first three games, overwhelmingly against Nevada and Montana, didn’t play in two of the last three games and had just one carry for a loss of a yard on an ill-conceived play during the Civil War.

Felix is the 10th member of Oregon’s 2017 recruiting class, which was signed by then-coach Willie Taggart, to either leave the program or not qualify. He’s the fourth out of seven players from Florida to sign in that class who are no longer with the program.

The No. 6 Ducks (11-2) have five backs on scholarship, with freshmen Sean Dollars and Jayvaun Wilson, both of whom are redshirting, also on the roster. Three-star prospect Trey Benson is set to sign with Oregon next week.
