Which one of thses guys would compete for a power 5 starting job? I can see mostly back-ups, maybe starters in Nix, Rattler and Johnson.

9 of them were starters this year.

Calzada put up very good numbers for Texas A&M as a true freshman. Slovis has been the starter for Southern Cal since JT Daniels got injured the first game of his sophomore year. Gabriel took over for McKenzie Milton at UCF after Milton's injury. Martinez would put up ridiculous numbers as a triple option QB, but I don't think he has the balls to join Navy or Army.

UK - Nick Scalzo, committed to Samford (I believe)

It will be interesting to see where these guys end up and how they do for sure.

 

[MarineUKFan]

I doubt Rattler ends up at USC, but he is a Cali kid, no?

Every player on that list can find a place that runs an offense that displays their talents better than where they were. It is gonna be interesting.

 

[RuffledFeathers]

Rattler was/is on campus.

And seeing the writing on the wall, our fourth string QB Conner Jordan is in the portal.

Well Slovis is leaving USC. There's got to be a reason for that that we're not privy to.

Meant the other USC, but I had read that there was interest from you guys.....mutual even.

True, but would he go back to the HC that benched him?

 

[Copejunkie]

QB Duece Hogan from Iowa is another entrant to the transfer portal.

I understood that, but pointing out he is currently on East Coast.

Don't forget Beamer was a coach at Oklahoma in 2020.

Benched him, then put him back in. Then benched him again. I mean that's some Parris Island bullshit. Make you a squad leader then kick you to the curb because you aren't living up to expectations. Graduation day, you are squad leader again and a better Marine for it. Maybe Rattler realizes that's the push he needs.

Yeah, even though he was brought up in the OU coaching search, I had indeed forgotten that he was there.

Don't think I would read too much into your 4th string QB transferring though. That would almost be a given these days regardless.

LMAO, that was my exact career arc in boot camp.

I didn't even realize that SCar had a 4th string QB.
