The Ohio State Buckeyes have numerous talented quarterbacks on their current roster. While they did have an early-season quarterback battle, it always seemed like Will Howard was the answer.
What is up next for the program? That’s a good question, and the path seems clear. It could very well be Julian Sayin next season and then eventually five-star Class of 2025 commit Tavien St. Clair.
That leaves current quarterback Devin Brown without a real opportunity, and he’s expected to hit the transfer portal once this season is over. California is apparently in the mix for Brown.

Brown has not committed to a program yet, although there have been reports of his interest in Cal. Unfortunately, Brown hasn’t been able to get much traction in Columbus.
He played two games as a freshman and then six as a sophomore. This season, he’s been able to get into nine games and throw for 114 yards and a touchdown. That’s not ample playing time, so it isn’t surprising he could end up elsewhere.
Cal joined the ACC this past season and ended with the fourth-worst record at 2-6 and had a 6-7 overall record. Brown should be able to transfer and be the top option for that Power 4 side.
