During college football’s transfer portal season, quarterbacks are the focus of most interest as they move from Power 5 programs to others. Making the correct swap can alter the sport’s power dynamics.
For instance, Michael Penix Jr.’s exceptional play, which helped Washington become a national title contender when he transferred from Indiana after four years, is only one example. That is typical of a quarterback who transfers from a lower-tier program to one in the top 25, thinking that the increased recognition will boost his chances of winning and get him noticed by NFL scouts. A player stepping up from the FCS to the FBS ranks is less usual, which is why Reese Poffenbarger of Albany is an intriguing addition to the team. Poffenbarger had 3,603 throwing yards to lead FCS.
