Running Back Terron Kellman Again Looking for New Home
LARAMIE -- Terron Kellman is again looking for a new home.
After spending just one season in Laramie, the junior running back will be entering the NCAA Transfer portal with just one season of eligibility remaining.
Pete Nakos of On3sports was the first to announce the Maryland product's departure. Kellman Monday also became the second Cowboy to announce his intentions to leave the program, joining wide receiver Chris Durr Jr.
The two-week transfer window is set to open Jan. 2.
Kellman began his career at Northern Illinois in 2022, where he redshirted for one season, before leaving for Charlotte in college football's version of free agency. The 5-foot-8, 210-pound back, over a two-year span, rushed for 570 yards and one touchdown in a reserve role.
Mainly splitting time with true freshman Samuel Harris and senior Sam Scott, Kellman capped his brief tenure at Wyoming with 331 yards on just 65 carries. That's an average of 5.1 yards per attempt. He also found the end zone four times, including twice in a 24-21 road loss at Air Force.
Kellman missed the final two games of the season with what head coach Jay Sawvel called an eye injury.

After an impressive spring on the high plains, Kellman was all but invisible during fall camp with the arrival of a stable of backs like Max White, Harris, Scott and Damashja Harris, and others.
Gary Harrell, the new running backs coach, was blunt in his assessment of Kellman, saying he didn't have a great offseason and adding, he didn't "approach it correctly."
"Coming into camp the message was, it's wide open for RB1," Harrell said back in September. "I think that competition really brought the best out of him ... I think by seeing those things before him, it forced him to step his game up. So, now we're benefiting. And he's benefited from it, too."
Kellman rushed for 87 yards on just seven attempts in a Week-2 win over Northern Iowa. He added the Cowboys lone touchdown of the game the following Saturday in a setback against Utah.
"My focus is on the main thing, just knowing that my time will come and just trying to gradually get better each and every day to be the best Terron Kellman when my opportunity is called," he said.
Without the threat of a consistent passing attack and youth and inexperience at both tackle positions, Wyoming's running game struggled throughout the 2025 campaign, averaging just 131.3 yards per game. Only three times all season did a Cowboy running back eclipse the 100-yard mark on the ground. Samuel Harris did that twice (against Colorado and Fresno State) and Scott rushed for 127 against Akron in the season opener.
Sawvel has said repeatedly over the last couple of weeks that a complete "rework" of this offense will take place during the offseason, beginning with Wednesday's early signing period where the team is expected to ink "19-to-21 players."
Though players who enter the portal are technically eligible to return to their previous school, Sawvel has said in year's past, that is not an option at Wyoming.
