Justin Sliwoski listed in NCAA transfer portal

Ohio State quarterback Tate Martell became something of an internet sensation on Thursday, when his name was added to the NCAA transfer portal and it was revealed that his full name is actually “Tathan.” However, an unintended consequence of that revelation was the incidental inclusion of names alongside Martell’s in the portal, one of which was Pitt quarterback Justin Sliwoski.

Sliwoski announced that he had joined Pitt as a walk-on on Feb. 8, 2018, after impressing during his final two seasons at Hempfield Area High School in Greensburg, Pennsylvania. As a senior, he threw for 1,668 yards, 19 touchdowns in eight games.
