Senior quarterback Anu Solomon will start on Saturday against Liberty in Baylor’s season opener, per Yahoo! Sports’ Pete Thamel.
Solomon, a graduate transfer from Arizona, won the starting job following a three-person battle for the position throughout training camp.
Incumbent starter sophomore Zach Smith holds a 1-3 record as the Baylor starting quarterback after taking over as a true freshman when Seth Russell went down with a season-ending ankle injury last season.
Freshman Charlie Brewer was given equal reps with Smith and Solomon throughout camp, but could potentially redshirt in order to save his eligibility for future years when the Bears need him.
