Texas A&M football finally has a clear picture at starting quarterback entering a season for the first time since…Johnny Football in 2013? It’s hard to say whether or not Trevor Knight counts. Despite being the presumed starter when he arrived as a graduate transfer in 2016, he still had to earn it in spring camp. Let’s look at the timeline of when the starter was named in the last five seasons.
- 2014: Kenny Hill -12 days before season opener
- 2015: Kyle Allen and Kyler Murray – both played in season opener.
- 2016: Trevor Knight – shortly after spring camp
- 2017: Nick Starkel – 4 days before season opener
- 2018: Kellen Mond – 3 days before season opener
Aggie fans have not had a fun few years when it comes to the quarterback position.
