On3 PERSONAL LIFE
Known for his ability on the field and off the field for his golden mullet, Quinn Ewers was the No. 1 player in the 2022 recruiting class. But he reclassified to the 2021 cycle before the start of his senior season of high school at Southlake (Texas) Carroll. Ewers enrolled at Ohio State but lasted less than a semester on campus in Columbus before entering the transfer portal. Despite being the Buckeyes’ fourth-string quarterback, Ewers secured NIL deals worth north of $1 million. Ewers is part of a small group of elite quarterbacks that skipped his senior season to enroll early in college. Other names on that include John David Booty, Jake Bentley and J.T. Daniels. Ewers said he started growing his mullet during his freshman year of high school and it’s only been cut once since. “I don’t get the haircut to bring the spotlight onto me,” Ewers told Sports Illustrated. “I just do it to be myself.”
