After news hit on Monday morning that Ohio State’s starting quarterback Kyle McCord was entering the transfer portal, rumors swirled about the Buckeyes looking to the portal for a quarterback.

Luckily for the Buckeyes the options for quarterbacks in the transfer portal this year are very strong. The list includes quarterbacks with multiple years of starting experience as well as young, former highly recruited quarterbacks.

On3’s J.D. Pickell predicted where the top quarterbacks in the transfer portal would end up. Most notable for Ohio State fans: Pickell predicted the Buckeyes would land Washington State transfer Cameron Ward.

Ward is a four-year starter for Washington State who had his best season in 2023 throwing for 3,723 yards, 25 touchdowns and seven interceptions while adding 384 yards and eight touchdowns on the ground.

With it seeming likely Ohio State will bring in a quarterback from the transfer portal, Ward is a name to keep an eye on.
