REPORT: Washington State QB Cam Ward Has 10 $1 Million Transfer Offers

According to a report from Fox Sports college football analyst Brock Huard, Washington State quarterback Cam Ward has 10 $1 million offers from D1 schools that want him to transfer and play for them.

Schools that have reportedly contacted him include Oregon, Washington, Notre Dame, Texas A&M, and Auburn.

Should he leave Washington State, this would be the second time Ward will have transferred. He has the ability to transfer again because he is a grad transfer. Any of the schools reportedly on Huard’s list would become an instant contender with Ward at the helm. Texas A&M just spent over $70 million paying Jimbo Fisher not to coach. So, one would assume the Aggies would lobby very hard for Ward.

There is no doubt Ward is a star. Chief among his accomplishments this year was an upset victory over Wisconsin and a near upset of archrival Washington in the Apple Cup.

It’s beyond insane that we’re already talking about million-dollar transfers only a couple of years into the NIL era, but here we are. What’s also clear is that this isn’t going away. Desperate schools with vast financial resources will likely fuel a transfer portal arms race that will lead to 19 and 20-year-old kids getting lured to schools by multimillion-dollar NIL deals.

It’s not your daddy’s college football. Heck, it’s not even our college football. But it’s likely here to stay.
