Stanford transfer QB K.J. Costello chooses Mississippi State and Mike Leach over Washington

Mike Leach had to leave Washington State to beat Jimmy Lake in something.

Stanford senior quarterback K.J. Costello — who officially entered the NCAA’s transfer portal in December and visited the University of Washington last week — announced on Monday that he will make a graduate transfer to Mississippi State, where he will be immediately eligible in his final collegiate season in 2020.

Thank you Stanford
