Two former Duke defensive linemen dismissed from the Blue Devils program earlier this year have announced via Twitter they are transferring to USF.

DE Marquies Price and DT Brandon Boyce, both significant contributors for Duke as sophomores last fall, will have to sit out the 2017 season per NCAA transfer requirements.

Runningthebulls.com first reported the transfers Monday.

Price started 11 of 12 games last year, while Boyce played in eight after being suspended the first three contests for a disciplinary issue. Collectively, they had 30 tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss and three sacks in 2016. 

Both were let go in February for "failing to meet the standards of a member of the program," Duke coach David Cutcliffe said at the time.

Boyce was ranked the nation's 43rd-best defensive lineman by Rivals.com coming out of Fort Lauderdale's St. Thomas Aquinas. He was a two-time first-team all-state pick, first at Fort Lauderdale University (Class 4A) in 2013 and at Aquinas (7A) his senior season.

Price totaled five forced fumbles and nine sacks his final two seasons at Peach County High in Fort Valley, Ga. Ranked the nation's No. 36 weakside defensive end by Rivals.com for the Class of 2015, he enrolled at Duke in January of that year.

Much needed transfers.

Since they were dismissed from the team do they get to play this season?

They still have to sit out a year.

Wonder what they did to get dumped.  Strong knows, so obviously (hopefully) it's nothing too serious, and we need a pretty clean program.

Charlie has turned down transfers in the past so I think whatever it was, it wasn't something he thought was detrimental to the team.
