Quinn Ewers has made his transfer decision.
The 5-star QB recruit and former Ohio State player will now play at Texas, Pete Thamel of Yahoo Sports reported.
Ewers was the No. 1-rated quarterback recruit in 2021, and Thamel reported that Ewers planned to inform the Texas coaching staff of his decision on Sunday evening.
Besides his recruiting profile, Ewers drew attention this summer when he elected to skip his senior year of high school at powerhouse Southlake Carroll in Texas and to enroll early at Ohio State. He did so with the idea he could make more than a million dollars in endorsements.
Ewers played just two snaps for the Buckeyes, as he arrived at school late in camp. He announced his transfer on Dec. 3, with the idea of going home to Texas.
Ewers joins Steve Sarkisian’s program hoping to be the centerpiece of a turnaround in Austin after the Longhorns 5-7 this season, including a 5-game losing streak.
A former newspaper veteran, Keith Farner is a news manager for Saturday Down South.
