According to the most recent Michigan football rumors, the team might look to their rival to find their next quarterback. When Ohio State quarterback Kyle McCord declared his plan to leave Columbus, it made plenty of news on college football transfer portals. McCord’s rejection of Nebraska via the transfer portal is garnering even more media attention.
Could the former four-star quarterback pull off the unbelievable now that he’s back on the market? Michigan was listed by On3.com’s Pete Nakos as one of the landing locations McCord might consider.
In an article titled “Ohio State QB Kyle McCord moving on from Nebraska, keeping portal recruitment open,” published on December 13, Nakos states, “Ohio State transfer quarterback Kyle McCord was on campus at Nebraska on Monday.” “Following that visit, several sources now inform On3 that McCord will continue with his recruitment, maintaining his options open, and considering a new group of universities. Not in the mix will be the Huskers.
Schools like Auburn, Duke, Louisville, Syracuse, and Michigan may be searching for quarterbacks on the transfer market. Although Kyle McCord will need to weigh his options, it is unlikely that Nebraska will be included in those plans.
The uncertainty surrounding J.J. McCarthy’s status after the College Football Playoff is fueling rumors about Michigan football. Many predict McCarthy to be selected in the first round of the 2024 NFL draft, including Dane Brugler of The Athletic.
Michigan is now among the most alluring destinations in the transfer portal for quarterbacks due to McCarthy’s possible departure. McCord is anticipated to sign a significant NIL contract.
According to On3.com’s NIL projections, McCord is worth $1 million. McCarthy’s NIL projections are $1.3 million, for further context. Top quarterbacks are anticipating NIL deals worth $1 million or more, according to Nebraska head coach Matt Rhule, a revelation that grabbed attention on the transfer portal.
