Quinn Ewers was considered as the top overall recruit in 2022 by multiple analysts when he left football factory Carroll Senior High in Southlake, Texas. He initially committed to the University of Texas but then decommitted and headed to Ohio State. Ewers made national news when he skipped his senior season in High School and joined the Buckeyes.
He only saw the field for two plays at Ohio State as C.J. Stroud had a lock on the starting spot. He left and joined the Longhorns in 2022, where he started for the last three seasons. He set the record for most passing yards in a single conference championship game with 452 yards and four touchdowns against Oklahoma State in 2023.
He finished his college career with a win over Georgia for the first season that Texas was in the SEC, and then played three postseason games before losing, ironically, to Ohio State in the CFB Semifinal.
