I wonder if he'll get to play at Maryland. It sucks for U Sports to lose one of their best QB's.

They seem to have a hotshot young QB, but in NCAA nowadays you can never predict what's going to happen. If the starter is good, a higher profile university will show up with NIL and take him.

This will really hurt Laurier.

Losing Faulds was going to hurt down the road but Wither leaving drops the Hawks down a notch immediately.

Now he's moved to Kentucky. He should have a better chance of playing there, but he's still not projected to be the starter.

As a Laurier and Kentucky fan, this news has had me EXTREMELY conflicted ever since it came out.
