Georgia football’s pursuit of a new quarterback has taken an interesting turn with the recent entry of Ohio State’s freshman QB Air Noland into the transfer portal. Despite having options like Gunner Stockton, Jaden Rashada, and incoming freshmen, Kirby Smart and his coaching staff are still eyeing potential portal pickups to strengthen their QB depth.
Noland, who didn’t see game action in his first season at Ohio State, offers four more years of eligibility, making him an intriguing option for Georgia. A highly ranked prospect coming out of high school, Noland was the No. 7 overall QB nationally, and his presence in the portal has already attracted attention. Ranked as the No. 10 portal QB by 247Sports, Noland’s potential could be a major asset for Georgia, especially with Smart’s desire to bolster the QB room.
While the Bulldogs are not in dire need of a QB, adding Noland could offer long-term benefits. Even if he doesn’t start immediately, the transfer could develop into a key player down the road. With the quarterback position still open for competition next season, Noland is a player worth considering as Georgia continues its portal search.
