Nick Starkel roasted by Arkansas fans after revealing apparent transfer destination
Nick Starkel appears to have found his new home.
On Saturday, Starkel posted a photo to his verified Instagram account with the location tagged as San Jose State University. He captioned it “Mood all 2020 knowing God got me.”
The caption and a link to the Instagram post were posted on Starkel’s Twitter account. Former Arkansas quarterback and current Miami offensive coordinator Rhett Lashlee replied to the tweet, congratulating the departing Razorback. Starkel thanked Lashlee.
Thanks Coach!

Starkel’s apparent announcement of San Jose State as his transfer destination stands out. In his fourth game as a Razorback, Starkel threw 5 interceptions in a 31-24 UA loss to SJSU.
Unsurprisingly, Hogs fans had jokes:

Kevin Durant would approve this move. Congrats and good luck.

Starkel played two seasons at Texas A&M prior to transferring to Arkansas. In three seasons (2017-19), Starkel is a career 57.6 percent passer (234-of-406), throwing for 3,114 yards, 22 touchdowns and 16 interceptions.
Is this kid who did the Bieber video or something?
He w
He wore a Bieber t-shirt under his jersey. Almost as bad as throwing 5 ints against San Jose St.
No one is mad a Starkle. He didn’t stand a chance with Chad Morris as his coach. But it is ironic that he ended up at the school that effectively ended his Arkansas career.
watching him in the sec inside club dub, made me cringe with ickiness….how moronic that they got so hyped about beating colorado state, barely! so glad that mess is gone! now maybe we can actually return our program to a respectable status…not a laughing stock. good luck to Nomadic Nick on his way to San Jose! la lala la lala la
Nomadic Nick…. LMAO…
You figure a guy who leaves a team that was 8-28 the past 3 years has got to upgrade his chances to catch a win, right? Nope – SJS is 8-29.
And one one of those wins is Arkansas with starkel at QB
I can name 4 other schools in Arkansas that would’ve been an upgrade. ASU, UCA, Ouachita Baptist and Harding.
Can’t blame him for transferring, can you ? It’s not a good situation in Arkansas football right now. Too many problems to even name one of them at this point in time. A change of scenery might do him some good. Good luck, young man,in that pass-happy West Coast football.
