Cal QB Ryan Glover Reportedly Enters Transfer Portal
Quarterback Ryan Glover, who started one game for Cal in 2021, reportedly has entered the transfer portal, according to Chris Hummer of 247 Sports.
Complicating the picture is that Glover was at Memorial Stadium, practicing with the Bears on Friday morning. Cal's spring camp ends Saturday with its Spring Showcase event. Gates open at 11:30 a.m.
There was a logjam at the Golden Bears' quarterback position this spring, with six players getting practice time at quarterback. However, Jack Plummer, the expected starter, and redshirt freshman Kai Millner, the expected backup who will be redshirt freshman in 2022, are getting nearly all the work with the first- and second-team offenses.
Glover came to Cal as a graduate transfer after spending a season at Western Carolina and had played previously at Penn.
His one start came against Arizona, when Chase Garbers was sidelined because of health protocols. In that game, Glover went 10-for-29 for 94 yards, no interceptions and no touchdown passes in a 10-3 loss to the Wildcats, which was Arizona's only victory of the season. He was also sacked four times.
The deadline for players to enter the transfer portal and still be eligible for the 2022 season is May 1, which is Sunday. So apparently Glover still has some interest in playing for some team in 2022.
Besides Plummer, a transfer from Purdue, and Millner, the other quarterbacks still on the Cal roster are Zach Johnson, Robby Rowell and Blake DBisschop.
Cal is not expected to name a quarterback starter until the fall
