Quinn Ewers, Former 5-Star QB, Reportedly Plans to Transfer to Texas from Ohio State

Quarterback Quinn Ewers will reportedly play at Texas after transferring from Ohio State, per Pete Thamel of Yahoo Sports.

Ewers entered the transfer portal after losing the starting quarterback battle to C.J. Stroud and not attempting a single pass for the Buckeyes.

After starring at Southlake Carroll High School in Southlake, Texas, Ewers reclassified from 2022 to 2021 and committed to OSU. At the time, 247Sports' composite rankings rated Ewers as a 5-star prospect and the No. 1 overall recruit in the class.

Ewers was a candidate to replace Justin Fields as the Buckeyes' starting quarterback, but after Stroud won the job and established himself as a Heisman Trophy candidate, it was clear there was no immediate path to playing time.
