BG Gets QB Transfer Commit

As urgent as urgent could be finally coming to fruition.  BG has a grad transfer QB coming in with two years of eligibility...Conner Bazelak, lately of Indiana and before that at Missouri.

He has played a lot of college football.  He's 6'4" and was a 4-star prospect out of Dayton and the #10 QB in the country. He went to Missouri and red-shirted after injuring his ACL early in his first start.  He came back the next year and had a big year, leading Missouri to a 5-3 record and being named co-SEC freshman of the year.

He had a second really good season at Missouri and then transferred to Indiana for last season.  It appeared that he had differences with Eli Drinkwater, Missouri's coach for the 2021 season. He went to Indiana, who lost Michael Penix and had a hole at QB. 

He did not have a great year at Indiana after a good start, finishing 14th in the conference in passing efficiency.

But those years at Missouri were really good....if he can pick that level of play up and limit the INTs, then he fills a badly needed hole in the BG lineup.


 Welcome to the Falcons, Conner!
