Former North Texas wide receiver Rico Bussey Jr. is heading to Hawaii as a graduate transfer, Yahoo Sports’ Pete Thamel reported Saturday.

Bussey caught 68 passes for 1,017 yards and 12 touchdowns with the Mean Green in 2018.

He missed most of the 2019 season after suffering a torn ACL in a Sept. 14 loss at Cal.

Bussey, who entered the NCAA transfer portal in February, has graduated from North Texas and is eligible to play in 2020.

From 2016-19, he caught 128 passes for 1,941 yards and 21 touchdowns.

Hawaii is now coached by Todd Graham, who was hired in January after Nick Rolovich left to become the head coach at Washington State.
