Wyoming’s Luke Sandy Reportedly Entering Portal

LARAMIE -- Luke Sandy was statistically Wyoming's second-best blocker this fall.

Now, the offensive guard is looking for a new home.

The soon-to-be senior from Elizabeth, Colo., is entering his name in the NCAA Transfer Portal, according to Chris Hummer of 247sports.com. The two-week window is set to open Jan. 2. Sandy, who is the fourth Cowboy to depart the program this offseason via college football's version of free agency, has one season of eligibility remaining.

Wide receiver Chris Durr Jr. also announced his intentions to test the open market. So did running backs Terron Kellman and Patrick Broadway II.

Sandy had a limited role in the Cowboys' offense last fall, lining up for just 174 snaps. The player he would spell for a drive or two, Wes King, was on the field for 683.

The 6-foot-2, 304-pound Sandy allowed just one sack, according to Pro Football Focus.

The Legend High School product was one of the most-versatile linemen in the program, bouncing around at both guard spots -- 119 on the left and 47 on the right -- and serving as a back-up center for eight plays in 2025. Sandy also played special teams.

"Sandy, he's been fighting since he got here," former center Nofoafia Tulafono said back in the fall of 2023. "That's what I respect about him. Me and him are very close because, you know, he's my backup. So, just seeing them compete for that left-guard spot is crazy to me."

Wyoming head coach Jay Sawvel said during Wednesday's signing day he plans to bring in at least two offensive linemen in the portal to compete with returning starters Rex Johnsen, Braylon Jenkins and King. The program also inked three more rookies at that position, who will join the likes of Giovanni Panozzo, Caleb Hall, Nate Geiger, Jake Davies, Josiah Petaia and Johnathan Bush, among others.
