After playing a big role in South Carolina becoming bowl eligible, former Gamecock quarterback Jason Brown announced on social media he is transfering to Virginia Tech. The Hokies have a new head coach in former Penn State defensive coordinator Brent Pry. Former Georgia State assistant Brad Glenn was recently hired as Virginia Tech's passing game coordinator and quarterbacks coach.
A native of Fredericksburg, VA, Brown began his collegiate career at St. Francis in Pennsylvania, an FCS school in Pennsylvania. Brown transferred to South Carolina for the 2021 season and in his one season in Columbia, Brown helped engineer victories over Florida and Auburn.
In seven games for Carolina, Brown was 60-of-108 passing for 721 yards with eight touchdowns and six interceptions.
On December 15, Brown announced that he was entering the NCAA transfer portal and would not play in the Duke's Mayo Bowl. As a graduate transfer, Brown will be eligible to compete this fall.
