Former Texas QB Hudson Card lands at Purdue

Hudson Card has found a new home.

After entering the NCAA transfer portal following the end of the regular season, Hudson Card has found his new home.

The former Texas quarterback is heading to play in the Big Ten Conference with the Purdue Boilermakers.

247Sports ranks Card as the No. 3 quarterback in the transfer portal. He has two years of eligibility remaining in his college career.

Card threw for 1,523 yards and 11 touchdowns in 19 games as a Longhorn. He played in four games at quarterback for Texas this season in place of the injured Quinn Ewers.

Texas’ quarterback room remains in good shape entering the offseason. Freshman Maalik Murphy moves into the backup role behind Quinn Ewers with five-star 2023 signee Arch Manning set to arrive in January.

Steve Sarkisian hinted at an open quarterback battle ahead of the 2023 season.

Five landing spots for Texas transfer quarterback Hudson Card

Hudson Card can aim higher than Casey Thompson did this offseason.

Texas quarterback Hudson Card is in the transfer portal after a solid campaign in relief of an injured Quinn Ewers. He should receive plenty of interest in the portal, if he hasn’t already.

It would be naive to assume Card wasn’t already contacted by teams at least indirectly prior to reaching the portal. The once elite prospect has the tools and enough on film to attract plenty of attention.

We have detailed why he was not the answer for Texas. Hudson wasn’t the boosters’ guy, though that narrative was overblown. Oklahoma did more to guarantee Dillon Gabriel’s job than the Longhorns did for Quinn Ewers in the offseason.

More than being the boosters’ second choice, Card’s skill set best fits systems not employed at Texas. He does possess the ability to succeed elsewhere at a high-level program.

Here are five places that could be the right fit.
