The transfer portal in college football is causing a constant rotation of quarterbacks. Recently, former Kansas State quarterback Will Howard announced that he will be transferring to Ohio State for his final year of eligibility. Howard expressed his satisfaction with the decision, stating that he learned a lot about himself and college football throughout the process. He believes that choosing Ohio State was the right move and that he would have regretted passing up the opportunity to be the quarterback for such a prestigious program.Howard will be a fifth-year senior, having spent the first four years of his college career at Kansas State. He had a successful tenure at the school, leading the Wildcats to the 2022 Big 12 Championship Game and achieving a 12-5 record as a starter. His passing stats were impressive, with 4,276 yards, 39 touchdowns, and 14 interceptions. He also contributed with 251 rushing yards and nine touchdowns in 2023.
Howard's decision to join Ohio State was driven by his desire to compete for a national championship and improve his draft prospects for the NFL. He believes that being a top draft pick is essential to succeed as a quarterback in the league. This decision comes shortly after the departure of Ohio State's 2023 starter, Kyle McCord, who entered the transfer portal and will play for Syracuse next season.
Ohio State had a successful 2023 season, finishing with an 11-2 record. However, they fell short in important games, losing to Michigan for the third consecutive year and losing to Missouri in the Cotton Bowl. Howard's addition to the team brings hope for a strong campaign and a chance to compete for a national championship.
