Tuesday Headlines: Hank Bachmeier Edition

Sep 27, 2022 - 10:40 AM

The Kentucky Wildcats are going to be looking for a new QB in 2023 with Will Levis being projected as a 1^st round NFL Draft pick.

Now, a potential transfer option has hit the portal as Boise State QB Hank Bachmeier announced that he will be transferring.

After the transfer report, Matt Jones of Kentucky Sports Radio took to Twitter to note that this is something to watch in the coming months.

Bachmeier has completed 536 of his 871 career pass attempts (61.5%) for 6,605-yards, 41 touchdowns, and 19 interceptions.

Jones added that Kentucky offensive coordinator, Rich Scangarello, worked with Bachmeier and several other college QBs since they were in high school. That stopped when he came to Kentucky.

However, there is a high chance that if the Cats get a transfer QB for 2023, it could very well be one of the players that Scangarello is already familiar with.

It is still way too early to know who will be under center for the Cats next season, but we already have our first name to keep an eye on.
