During the championship Monday night, D’Eriq King entered the transfer portal. The Houston QB announced it on Twitter Monday night that he would be seeking to transfer. This was a small shock as when he was redshirted at Houston this year, he had said that he would be returning. A D’Eriq King transfer will likely change the landscape of college football. According to reports, this decision also caught Houston by surprise. The electric QB should be likely to play right away, providing an instant spark to an offense in need.

A few names have been thrown around for where King might go. Oregon could potentially go after King after missing out on Jamie Newman, although he would not fit the same mold as Justin Herbert. He could also go to a school like Mississippi State where Mike Leach may be looking for a new QB. Washington State could also look to add King to an offense that is now being led by Nick Rolovich.

The explosive QB will have no problems finding suitors. It will now just be a matter if King can find a school that fits him. If King finds the right team, he has the potential to win a Heisman or lead a team to a National Championship.
