Thomas Castellanos Transfer Portal: 3 teams that could land Boston College QB if he enters the portal
Thomas Castellanos has reportedly stepped away from Boston College after head coach Bill O’Brien announced a new starter for this week's game at SMU. Castellanos will be replaced by Grayson James under center.
This all but confirmed that Castellanos would likely enter the transfer portal, and on Wednesday, he made it official.
Here's a closer look at three teams that could be the next stop for the former Central Florida and Boston College quarterback.
3 teams who could recruit Thomas Castellanos from transfer portal
#1. Florida State
After an undefeated run last season, the Florida State Seminoles haven't found success with DJ Uiagalelei like they did previously with Jordan Travis. Mike Norvell is on the ropes with a 1-6 start and one of those defeats came against Thomas Castellanos-led Boston College, a 28-13 win.
A Tallahassee-based school needs a new man to lead the team to previous glory and who better than Thomas Castellanos, who defeated them convincingly?
#2. Miami Hurricanes
Assuming Thomas Castellanos wishes to remain in the ACC, the Miami Hurricanes could be another school that could tempt the quarterback there. A 9-1 start to the season should not prompt quarterback change but their hand is forced, with Cam Ward likely to declare for the NFL draft after five years in college football, including the final season in Miami.
Castellanos could prove to be a perfect match, and in case there are no elite quarterbacks available, he could make for a good bargain as well.
#3. Vanderbilt Commodores
There is uncertainty on whether starting quarterback Diego Pavia, who sued the NCAA for extra eligibility, will be with the Commodores next season. This should lead the program in search of someone to replace Pavia and Thomas Castellanos is easily among those who could be getting the call.
Vanderbilt (6-4) is an SEC program, thus Castellanos is sure to pick a fight among the best college football teams. This should add to his potential and give him more national coverage than any of the other teams.
The Auburn Tigers and Wake Forest are some of the other programs that might also like to add the quarterback to their ranks.
