UMass QB RJ Johnson III has posted on X he is transferring from UMass
This is a hit to the Minutemen's depth. Since moving to FBS, UMass has struggled to field a FBS-level quarterback. Except for Andrew Ford and Blake Fronapfel in the Whipple II era, we have not had productive play from the QB position.
If Pop Watson should be injured, UMass would be left without a proven QB.
Remaining QB's would include redshirt sophomore Will Perry, true freshman Aedan McCarthy and Drake transfer Logan Inagawa.
Inagawa was a three-star recruit out of HS. His Bulldogs bio here.
The Minutemen will probably try to add a QB transfer over the summer.
