TJ Finley Entering Transfer Portal

Sophomore quarterback TJ Finley entered the NCAA Transfer Portal late Wednesday afternoon as first reported by Garland Gillen of Fox 8 New Orleans and Reggie Chatman of WBRZ.

Finley was in a four-way race to be LSU’s starting quarterback this upcoming season with senior Myles Brennan, fellow sophomore Max Johnson, and true freshman Garrett Nussmeier. Now that battle is down to three.

While all four quarterbacks got equal reps with the first team offense in spring practice, it became clear that the competition was mainly between Brennan and Johnson. Finley will be immediately eligible to play this year thanks to the one-time blanket waiver granted by the NCAA.
