Why Maryland QB Kasim Hill entering the transfer portal makes sense

On Friday afternoon, reports surfaced that Maryland quarterback Kasim Hill had entered his name into the NCAA’s transfer portal. The rising redshirt sophomore confirmed those reports and addressed the issue on Twitter.

Hill started 10 games for Maryland in 2018 but struggled for most of the season, completing 49.4 percent of his passes and threw for just 1,083 yards. Then he suffered his second torn ACL in as many years against Indiana, and he appears likely to miss most if not all of 2019 as he recovers.

As Hill himself points out, entering the transfer portal doesn’t necessarily mean a transfer will actually happen.
