Breaking: Trevor Etienne Admits He Regrets Transferring from Florida Gators to Georgia Bulldogs, Wishes to Return
Athens, GA – In a surprising turn of events, Georgia Bulldogs running back Trevor Etienne has publicly expressed regret over his decision to transfer from the Florida Gators. The talented junior, who made the switch to Georgia in the offseason, now wishes he had stayed in Gainesville.
Speaking to reporters after a recent practice, Etienne was candid about his feelings. “Looking back, I should have stayed at Florida,” he admitted. “I made the move thinking it was the best decision for my career, but things haven’t worked out the way I hoped.”
Etienne, who was expected to be a key piece in Georgia’s offensive scheme, has struggled to find his rhythm in a crowded backfield. Despite flashes of brilliance, his role in the Bulldogs’ offense has been more limited than he anticipated. At Florida, he was a rising star, poised to be the Gators’ lead back after a stellar sophomore campaign.
Rumors of Etienne’s dissatisfaction had been circulating for weeks, with sources close to the player suggesting he was frustrated with his usage. His brother, Jacksonville Jaguars star Travis Etienne Jr., has also hinted at Trevor’s struggles adjusting to a new system.
“Trevor loves the game, and he wants to be in a place where he can showcase his full potential,” a source close to the Etienne family revealed. “Right now, he doesn’t feel like he’s in the right situation.”
While there’s no official word on whether Etienne will enter the transfer portal again, his comments have sparked speculation about a possible return to Florida. Gators head coach Billy Napier, who initially recruited Etienne, was asked about the situation but kept his response brief. “Trevor’s a great player. We have a lot of respect for him,” Napier said. “But right now, we’re focused on our team and the guys we have here.”
If Etienne does seek a transfer back, it could be a complicated process. The NCAA’s transfer rules and Florida’s current roster situation would play significant roles in determining whether a reunion is possible.
For now, Etienne remains a Bulldog, but his latest remarks suggest his heart may still be in Gainesville.
