Lee began his college journey at Penn State in 2020, where he led the Nittany Lions in rushing during his freshman season with 438 yards and four touchdowns. Over three seasons at Penn State, he accumulated 1,062 rushing yards and six touchdowns on 222 carries. Following the 2022 season, Lee transferred to Mississippi State, seeking increased playing time.
In his first season with the Bulldogs, Lee appeared in 12 games, recording 41 carries for 215 yards and one touchdown, along with three receptions for 13 yards. Unfortunately, his 2024 season was cut short due to an injury sustained in the fourth game against Florida, after which he did not return to the field.
As a graduate transfer with one year of eligibility remaining, Lee is now exploring opportunities to continue his collegiate career elsewhere. His departure adds to the list of Mississippi State players entering the transfer portal this offseason, signaling potential shifts in the team’s roster dynamics for the upcoming season.
