College football stars Kyle McCord, Dillon Gabriel enter transfer portal

Ohio State's Kyle McCord and Oklahoma's Dillon Gabriel entered the NCAA transfer portal on Monday joining a scorching hot market of quarterbacks.

Two of college football’s top quarterbacks were among those who entered the transfer portal on Monday as part of the first day of the 30-day window players can put their names out in search of another opportunity.

Ohio State’s Kyle McCord and Oklahoma’s Dillon Gabriel were the biggest names that went into the portal. Arizona State’s Drew Pyne, Baylor’s Blake Shapen, Utah’s Bryson Barnes and James Madison’s Jordan McCloud also entered.

McCord was named the Buckeyes’ starting quarterback at the start of the season, beating out Devin Brown. The junior had 3,170 passing yards and 24 touchdown passes as Ohio State went 11-1 during the regular season. The team’s lone loss came against Michigan last month.

It’s unclear whether McCord will play in Ohio State’s bowl game. The team will take on Missouri in the Cotton Bowl. Ryan Day was noncommittal when asked about McCord’s status.

Gabriel’s transfer also comes after Oklahoma offensive coordinator Jeff Lebby took the Mississippi State head coaching job.
