Familiar faces, new places: QB transfers have taken over college football

On Thursday night, Rutgers kicks off Week 1 of the 2024 college football season by starting a transfer at quarterback.

That’s where our story begins, with Athan Kaliakmanis, the man they call "The Greek Rifle."

Kaliakmanis transferred from Minnesota, which also opens its season Thursday night with a transfer quarterback from the FCS level, Max Brosmer, in a game against North Carolina, who will start a transfer quarterback as well from Texas A&M. And Texas A&M? It kicks off the season hosting Notre Dame, which starts a transfer quarterback from Duke, and Duke will open the season with a transfer quarterback from Texas.
