Arkansas QB Blake Boda enters NCAA Transfer Portal

Arkansas quarterback Blake Boda has entered the NCAA Transfer Portal, per On3’s Pete Nakos. Boda transferred to Arkansas from Coastal Carolina last offseason.

Boda didn’t see any action for Arkansas last season. He appeared in three games during his true freshman season at Coastal Carolina but ultimately redshirted. In his three appearances, he threw one pass for 14 yards.

Blake Boda played high school football at Seabreeze (FL), where he was an unranked prospect in the 2023 recruiting cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He was named the 2022 Florida High School Class 2S Florida Dairy Farmers Player of the Year.

Boda is the 39th Arkansas player to enter the transfer portal this offseason. The Razorbacks have added 26 players to soften the blow of their losses. They are currently ranked No. 58 in On3’s 2025 Team Transfer Portal Rankings.

Boda’s decision comes only hours after former Florida State quarterback Trever Jackson committed to Arkansas. Jackson only spent one season at Florida State.

Quarterback competition unfolding at Arkansas

In his lone campaign in Tallahassee, Jackson only made one appearance and ultimately redshirted. However, he served as the Seminoles’ scout team quarterback in practice.

Trever Jackson played high school football at Jones, where he was a three-star prospect. He was the No. 621 overall player and No. 41 QB in the 2024 recruiting cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking.

Jackson recorded 1,771 yards of total offense and 17 touchdowns during his senior season at Jones. He led the program to the state semifinals before being eliminated. Jackson initially committed to Ole Miss coming out of high school, but eventually flipped his commitment to Florida State.

Now, Jackson will look to reach new heights at Arkansas. He is expected to be a backup for the Razorbacks, who are returning starting quarterback Taylen Green.

Green transferred to Arkansas last offseason and immediately breathed life into the Razorbacks’ offense. He completed 60.4% of his pass attempts last season for 3,154 yards and 15 touchdowns.

However, Green’s arm was far from his only threat. The standout junior also racked up 602 yards and eight touchdowns in the ground game.

Arkansas posted a 7-6 overall record last season and a 3-5 mark in conference play. The Razorbacks finished their season strong with a 39-26 win over Texas Tech in the Liberty Bowl. Next season will be head coach Sam Pittman‘s sixth at the helm of the program, and he’s hungry to take another step forward.
