Scott spent one season (2016) at LSU before transferring to East Mississippi Community College of “Last Chance U” fame. After his stop at East Mississippi, he returned to the SEC, landing at Missouri. Scott was a scout team quarterback at Mizzou in 2018. Transferring again, Scott went to Nicholls and had to sit out the 2019 season due to transfer rules.

Due to the pandemic, Nicholls had both spring and fall seasons in 2021. After playing 18 games, Scott ranks sixth all-time among Nicholls passers with 3,767 yards. This fall, he set a single-game school record with 480 yards of total offense against Louisiana.
