Bowling Green landed a commitment from Missouri transfer quarterback Drew Pyne, according to ESPN, giving first-year Falcons coach Eddie George a veteran hand to potentially lead his offense in 2025. This will be Pyne’s fourth school in his sixth year of college football after signing with Notre Dame in 2020. 

Though he was in the same recruiting class as now-NFL standouts like Bryce Young and C.J. Stroud, Pyne still has two years of eligibility remaining. The COVID-shortened 2020 season did not count against his eligibility, he took a redshirt season after playing in just two games in 2021 and he was limited to just two games in 2023 due to various injuries, allowing him to utilize a medical redshirt. 

Pyne played in just six games in his first two seasons at Notre Dame but took over as the starter in 2022 after Tyler Buchner suffered a season-ending injury just two games into the year. Pyne led the Fighting Irish to a 9-4 record in its first year under coach Marcus Freeman, capped by a win against No. 19 South Carolina in the Gator Bowl, while throwing for 2,021 yards and 22 touchdowns.
