Southern Miss QB Jack Abraham transferring to Mississippi State

For a guy that led all FBS quarterbacks with a 73.1 completion percentage in 2018, Jack Abraham’s Southern Miss career certainly didn’t get a storybook ending.

But now that’s all in the past following his decision to transfer to Mississippi State who offered the redshirt senior a scholarship earlier this month.

Abraham entered the transfer portal on November 20^th and according to our media partner the Sun Herald about 10 schools made contact with the Oxford native.

Following a positive test for COVID-19 and then a concussion, Abraham decided it was in his best interest to sit out the rest of the season, but per the Sun Herald, he was later told he could no longer remain with the program.

Elsewhere in Hattiesburg, two Golden Eagles receiving second-team all-conference nods today in the form of freshman running back Frank Gore Jr., also selected to the league’s all freshmen team, and junior linebacker Hayes Maples.

Southern Miss had 10 other players receive honorable mention.
