Mississippi State football wide receiver, Lideatrick (Tulu) Griffin, is dominating the recruiting trail via the transfer portal.

The Mississippi State football wide receiver, Tulu Griffin, has been tweeting at several different college football players who have entered the transfer portal.

Tulu Griffin might just be Mississippi State football’s best recruiter.

Griffin finished the 2022 season with 35 receptions for 449 yards and 4 touchdowns. But where Tulu seemed to shine this 2022 season was in the kickoff return game. Tulu returned 19 kickoffs this 2022 college football season for 613 yards and one touchdown to the house (TO THE HOUSE TULU). Wow… 613 yards.

The Mississippi State Bulldogs finished the year No. 1 in the nation for average kickoff return yardage with 807 yards on 29 attempts. The Bulldogs finished with an average of 27.8 yards a kickoff return.

Tulu Griffin continued to shine in the passing game whenever he received his touches, and he made (possibly) the most important play of the season by recovering a fumble lost by quarterback, Will Rogers, in this year’s Battle for the Golden Egg.

Look out for the Mississippi State football wide receiver in 2023 because he is trying to put all the key players in key positions.

That’s just an example of several (I would say 50+) tweets at college football players across the country that have entered the transfer portal.

Many of the players that have entered the portal have tweeted a response back to Tulu Griffin. I would say that is always a good sign

Diwun Black, former Florida linebacker, responded to Tulu after Griffin complained that Mississippi State had not offered Black a scholarship. Black assured Tulu by letting him know that he had not officially put his name into the portal until that day (December 6th, 2022).

This could turn out to work in the Bulldogs’ favor if many of these transfer portal players turn their heads toward Maroon and White Nation.
