Jordan Ta’amu - Ole Miss
Experience: 1-Year Starter at New Mexico Military Institute, 2-Year Starter at Ole Miss
Ta’amu’s path to division 1 football has been well-documented. As one of the earliest of Hawaiian-born quarterbacks shining on the mainland, media outlets from SBNation to USA Today have taken deep dives into the senior’s journey from Pearl City to Ole Miss. Though he went to the same high school as Marcus Mariota and won two titles as a junior and senior, colleges never looked his way because he was dominating against D2 high school talent. The questions about his competition level meant his football-playing options were few and far between.
