FAMU football grabs record-setting wide receiver from the NCAA Transfer Portal
The 'RACBOYZ 2.0' revamp continues.
Florida A&M football landed a commitment late Thursday night from former Division I-FBS Central Florida (UCF) wide receiver Quan Lee from the NCAA Transfer Portal.
Lee announced his decision to join the Rattlers via Twitter. He has four years of eligibility left.
Lee, 6-foot, 175 pounds, played high school football at Buchholz in Gainesville. He was named the 2021-2022 Overall Player of the Year on the Gainesville Sun's Big School All-Area Team after helping the Bobcats reach the Florida High School Athletic Association (FHSAA) 7A State Semifinals.

The 2022 4-star prospect via 247Sports is believed to be Alachua County's all-time leading receiving yard getter based on stats provided according to the Gainesville Sun. Lee accumulated 2,824 receiving yards in four years at Buchholz.
He also added 134 catches and 34 total touchdowns over that time.
Once committed to Miami, Lee flipped to UCF as the Knights second-highest rated signee of the 2022 class. Lee redshirted his freshman year.
He entered the transfer portal on April 27, leaving UCF.
Lee's addition makes him the sixth receiver of the Rattlers' 2023 recruiting class. Altogether, FAMU has 20 receivers on the roster entering the season.
