Duke QB to enter transfer portal: Rebel Roundup
Your daily briefing on what’s going on with Ole Miss Athletics, including big news about the Rebels’ Gator Bowl opponent.
Ole Miss football got some good news Wednesday for its upcoming TaxSlayer Gator bowl appearance against Duke on January 2.
Duke quarterback Maalik Murphy announced his plans to enter the NCAA transfer portal this week after throwing for a school-record 26 touchdowns. He’s expected to be one of the most-highly sought after quarterbacks in the transfer portal and will not play against Ole Miss in the Gator Bowl.
Also, reports have stated Duke could also lose another quarterback, Grayson Loftis, to the transfer portal. And based on comments made by Duke coach Manny Diaz that leaves sophomore Henry Belin IV as the most likely starter.
The Rebels, otherwise, aren’t having similar issues. Quarterback Jaxson Dart has already announced he’ll be suiting up for Ole Miss in the Gator Bowl, as will pretty much every other player.

“When I showed interest in sports, my dad handled it right. I lost my dad when I was nineteen years old. Up until then, his policy on sports was that you can go out for any sport you want to – but don’t even think about quitting. If you don’t like it, you’re going to stick it out.”
