Baylor quarterback Blake Shapen has committed to transfer to Mississippi State, he told ESPN on Friday.

Shapen was one of the most experienced and productive quarterbacks in the NCAA transfer portal, as he started 23 career games at Baylor over three seasons. In three seasons there, he's thrown for 5,574 yards, 36 touchdowns and completed 63.7% of his passes.

He'll link up with first-year Mississippi State coach Jeff Lebby, a noted maestro of prolific offenses. Shapen received strong interest from a flurry of Power Five programs, but ultimately found the best fit and offensive potential in Starkville.
