Transfer Portal Rumor: Myers Park DE Darius Thompson Weighs Options
Myers Park Mustangs senior defensive end Darius Thompson is reportedly considering a transfer from the 4A program due to a playing time dispute, sources close to the situation confirm. As one of the top pass-rushers in the state, Thompson's departure would be a significant blow to the Mustangs' defense, which is already thin at the position. Myers Park coach, Jason Sumter, has expressed concerns about the team's depth at defensive end, and losing Thompson would further exacerbate the issue. According to multiple sources, Thompson is being recruited by several programs in the Southeast, including North Carolina State, South Carolina, and Georgia. The Mustangs will need to act quickly to retain Thompson, who is expected to make a decision in the coming weeks.
