Cal announced the addition of three student-athletes from the transfer portal Wednesday to increase the size of its 2024 recruiting class to 26 members with RB Kadarius Calloway (Old Dominion), PK Ryan Coe (North Carolina) and WR Mikey Matthews (Utah) joining the Golden Bears.

Calloway was a consensus four-star recruit who signed and enrolled at Alabama as a cornerback in 2021 before eventually ending up as a running back as a junior in 2023 at Old Dominion, where he rushed 88 times for 623 yards (7.08 ypr) with five touchdowns on the ground. Calloway had a breakout game in 2023 when he rushed 11 times for 236 yards and three touchdowns on the ground at Marshall, breaking off runs of 70, 69 and 75 yards.

Coe has played in 42 collegiate games over the last five seasons at Delaware (2019-21), Cincinnati (2022) and North Carolina (2023), scoring 243 career points by making 48-of-61 field goals (.786) and all 99 of his extra-point attempts. He had his most productive collegiate campaign and earned second-team All-American Athletic Conference honors as a 2022 junior at Cincinnati when he scored 101 points by connecting on 19-of-23 (.826) field goal attempts to set the Bearcats' single-season accuracy record and all 44 of his extra-point tries.

Matthews played in all 12 regular-season games as a 2023 true freshman at Utah, contributing 29 receptions for 261 yards receiving, while also leading the Utes in both kick returns (15-309) and punt returns (17-75), and totaling 649 all-purpose yards. He was a high school teammate of fellow Cal wide receiver Mavin Anderson at Mission Viejo, where he totaled 2,408 yards receiving and 28 touchdown catches in four prep campaigns. Matthews was also a four-star recruit in the 2022 class according to ESPN, On3 and Rivals, who ranked as high as the No. 30 wide receiver and No. 165 player in the country overall according to Rivals.

All three of Wednesday's additions will join Cal later in January to increase the program's number of mid-year enrollees to 18 including 11 transfers and six from the high school ranks. Other transfers arriving in Berkeley this month include ILB Teddye Buchanan (UC Davis), DB Isaiah Crosby (Trinity Valley Community College), DB Marcus Harris (Idaho), DL Aidan Keanaaina (Notre Dame), OL Rush Reimer (Montana State), QB Chandler Rodgers (North Texas) and DB Ja'Ir Smith (College of San Mateo). Six high schoolers – DB Dayday Aupiu, DL BJ Canady, LB Luke Ferrelli, OL Tyler Knape, WR Josiah Martin and LB Eze Osondu – will also join the Bears this month.

The remainder of the group that has been announced to date are also all high schoolers – QB EJ Caminong, DB Brooklyn Cheek, OL Syris Corley, TE Camden Jones, DL Legend Journey, OL Aiden Newbill, DL Michael-Anthony Okwura, WR Trevor Rogers and RB Jamaal Wiley – and will join the Bears next June.

The class of 2024 includes an FCS AP All-American in Harris, a prep state champion in Trevor Rogers, and an experienced quarterback who has thrown for over 7,000 passing yards and 53 scores in Chandler Rogers.

Smith is ESPN's second-ranked junior college cornerback and 10th-best player overall, while Crosby is 247Sports No. 4 JUCO safety. Caminong is ranked No. 25 among ESPN's top high school pocket passers and six others have their best position ranking among the top 60 prep players nationally at their position in Jones (On3 Consensus' No. 35 tight end), Canady (247Sports' No. 46 defensive lineman), Wiley (ESPN's No. 51 running back), Trevor Rogers (ESPN's No. 51 wide receiver), Cheek (On3's No. 55 safety) and Aupiu (ESPN's No. 57 safety).

Eleven members of the 2024 class call Texas home with 11 from the Lone Star state, while seven are from California followed by two from Washington, and one each from Colorado, Kansas, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oregon, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

The group includes 13 on the offensive side of the ball (4 OL, 4 WR, 2 QB, 2 RB, 1 TE), 12 on defense (5 DB, 4 DL, 2 LB, 1 ILB) and one placekicker.
