- Former Ohio State quarterback plans to enter transfer portal again
As the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic gets ready to kick off, a former Ohio State quarterback has made some news. Devin Brown , who left Columbus for California Berkley , has said he will again enter the transfer portal after one year with the Golden Bears.
Brown, who was with the Buckeyes for three years, left after Ohio State finished its championship run in January 2025. He served as the backup to starter Will Howard , but saw a limited path to playing time with Julian Sayin ready to take the reins.

Brown believed there was an opportunity for significant playing time at Cal with Fernando Mendoza leaving for Indiana. However, four-star freshman Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele , who was the No. 7 quarterback in the 2025 class, won the job before the season started. Sagapolutele had enrolled at Oregon in December 2024 but asked for his release soon after and headed south to California . So Brown spent another season as a backup, seeing mop-up action in just five games, completing four of seven passes for 48 yards, one touchdown and one interception.
Where Brown lands next is anyone's guess, but it has to be assumed that a Group of Five school is the most logical destination at this point. He'll have one year of eligibility left as he tries to salvage what's left of his collegiate career.
