UMass Football News--December 27th, 2019

The Berkshire Eagle has a post on UMass QB commits Kyle Lindquist and Will Koch.

The article mentions QB's in the transfer portal:

"There are 58 quarterbacks in the Transfer Portal according to 247sports.com. Among the players who are immediately eligible to play in 2020 are Anthony Brown from Boston College, Michael Beaudry from UConn, Mo Hasan of Vanderbilt, and Jett Dudley of Texas Tech. None of those players have been actively linked to UMass as of now."

 Four scholarships for QB's (counting Brady Martin and a potential grad transfer) would be more than I'd like to use given the state of the rest of the roster, but a senior transfer might solidify the whole position.

BTW, UMass freshman QB recruit Will Koch was just named the area Offensive-Player-of-the-Year.
