LSU freshman quarterback Walker Howard is planning to enter the transfer portal, sources have confirmed to ESPN.
Howard was the No. 42 prospect overall in the 2022 class and one of the first important prospects for coach Brian Kelly after he was hired at LSU. TigerBait.com was first to report the news.
Howard had already been committed to LSU when Kelly was hired, but he reaffirmed his commitment once Kelly was brought in as coach. Howard had been recruited by Kelly at Notre Dame and was intently listening to the pitch from the Irish until Kelly arrived at LSU.
