Former Texas quarterback Casey Thompson is on the move again.
Thompson is searching for a school to play his final year of college eligibility for the 2023 season. He entered the transfer portal as a graduate after playing one season with the Nebraska Cornhuskers. A potential reunion with his former head coach could be on the horizon.
Former Texas and currently FAU head coach Tom Herman is hosting Thompson for a visit this week.
Herman recruited and signed Thompson with the Longhorns in the class of 2018. He served in a backup role for three seasons under Herman until his firing following the 2020 season.
Thompson had an up-and-down year in 2022 for Nebraska. He threw for 2,407 yards, 17 touchdowns and 10 interceptions while starting 10 games.
The move would make tons of sense for both sides. Herman gets an experienced quarterback to lead his team in year one of the new gig. Thompson can return to the offensive system that he spent three years developing in.
Nebraska transfer quarterback Casey Thompson is expected to visit FAU next week, a source tells @247SportsPortal.
