Former West Virginia QB Austin Kendall lands at Louisiana Tech

The quarterback room in Ruston becomes a little more crowded as former Oklahoma and West Virginia signal-caller Austin Kendall will transfer to Lousiana Tech. As first reported by Bleed Tech Blue’s Ben Carlisle, the former four-star recruit will suit up for the Bulldogs in 2021.

The 6-3, 220-pound Kendall spent the past two seasons with the Mountaineers, where he started nine games in 2019, throwing for 1,989 yards and 12 touchdowns for a West Virginia team that finished 5-7 under first-year head coach Neal Brown. Last season, former Bowling Green starter Jarret Doege assumed the starting role and Kendall went 11-of-23 passing for 164 yards in reserve duty.
