Super Fast Ole Miss QB (Plumlee) Transfers to UCF
Gus Malzahn landed a very good RPO QB in John Rhys Plumlee, who is transferring to UCF from Ole Miss.

Gus Malzahn brings in a big fish today!

Plumlee played QB at Ole Miss as a true freshmen in 2019 prior to Lane Kiffin, who then moved him to WR the last 2 seasons.

While much of UCF's offense was a mash-unit last year due to injuries, one thing that Gus didn't have was a real RPO option...and now he will have at least 2: Plumlee and incoming Georgia HS Star QB Tommy Castellanos, who arrived on campus today.

It will be interesting to see how all of these newcomers will do following a full Spring Practice...as Plumlee has 2 years of eligibility, so odds are, he will be at UCF for their first year in the Big 12 in 2023.

Is he a big fish? That feels like an overreaction.

He's a Wildcat QB. He's a very inaccurate passer. To me, he's just another Gatewood. Coach will game-plan him into the rotation. If he ever pulled up and threw the ball downfield, I would be holding my breath and praying for the best.

For me its:
Kinne QB1
Castellanos QB2
Plumlee QB3/Wildcat1
Navarro QB4 (probably transfers after Spring)
Gatewood TE/Wildcat2

Big Fish?

He is just another weapon for Gus to use...as he brings a different skill set that is opposite of Mikey Keene (smart, good pocket passer).

Castellanos enrolling early will help him get PT...but Plumlee's SEC experience will probably have him above Castellanos in Spring and probably Fall (to start).

I do expect Castellanos to play in at least 4 games next season...(could still redshirt after 4), but with injuries and other scenarios that pop up...redshirting someone and hoping they are around in Year 5 is not much of a concern anymore in "free agency".

GA HS QB Castellanos finished his HS career with:
7,710 yds passing
66 TD passes
3,681 yds rushing
69 TD rushes

NOTE: Plumlee as a true freshmen QB in the SEC, completed 53% of his passes (also rushed for 1,000 yds), while McKenzie Milton, playing in the AAC, completed 57% of his passes as a true Freshmen (included throwing to multiple NFL receivers).
