It's the obvious first choice to watch as Hugh Freeze and quarterbacks coach Kent Austin have to replace Malik Willis' production from the past two seasons. Willis rewrote the record books in leading the Flames to their first finish in the Associated Pre ss Top 25 poll after the 2020 campaign, and he was selected by the Tennessee Titans in the third round of the NFL Draft. Freeze and Austin didn't name a starter or eliminate the four scholarship quarterbacks from contention after spring practice.T hey wanted to see if Utah transfer Charlie Brewer and holdovers Johnathan Bennett, Kaidon Salter and Nate Hampton could make strides over the summer and enter training camp with a leg up on the others. Brewer has the experience with 47 starts at Baylor a nd Utah, while the other three have not started a game at the college level. He transferred to Liberty with the expectation of starting, and his success previously running an RPO offense at Baylor provides him with the opportunity to take the first snap at Southern Miss. - Lynchburg News and Advance

Former Baylor quarterback Charlie Brewer is transferring to Liberty for his final season of college eligibility, according to reports. Brewer played four seasons for the Bears from 2017-20, and was a key player for the 2019 team that made the Big 12 cham pionship game and reached the Sugar Bowl. Since the 2020 season didn't count against eligibility due to COVID-19, Brewer transferred to Utah in 2021 and played in the first three games before leaving the team when he was replaced at quarterback by Camero n Rising. - Waco Tribune Herald

Charlie Brewer threw for 233 yards and two touchdowns in his Utah debut to help the No. 24 Utes beat Weber State 40-17 on Thursday night. Dalton Kincaid caught four passes for 75 yards and two touchdowns in the opener for both teams. Tavion Thomas ran fo r 107 yards and two touchdowns on 12 carries in his Utah debut. Brewer beat out Cameron Rising for the starting quarterback job in camp and did not disappoint. He was crisp on many throws and gave Utah a legitimate passing attack it lacked at times last season. "I thought he was very poised in the pocket," Utah coach Kyle Whittingham said. "He did a nice job keeping his eyes downfield. He was accurate...Did a good job of running the offense." Bronson Barron threw for 213 yards and a touchdown for Weber State, but the Wildcats had just 57 yards rushing. - AP College Football/Utah Football

There's no ifs, ands or ORs about it: Charlie Brewer is the starting quarterback for Utah's season opener against Weber State. The Utes released their first depth chart of the 2021 season, and it lists the Baylor grad transfer as the starter at quarterba ck, with Cameron Rising the backup. The Utes open the season against the Wildcats on Thursday, Sept. 2 at 5:30 p.m. MDT at the newly renovated Rice-Eccles Stadium. Brewer, a senior, was considered a leading candidate for the starting position, as he came to Utah after starting for four seasons at Baylor and has thrown for 9,700 yards and 65 touchdowns in his college career.Rising, a sophomore, was the Game 1 starter for Utah last season before going down with a season-ending injury just one quart er into the year. The 6-foot-1, 208-pound Brewer was named to the team's 16-man leadership council earlier this week and has been named to the preseason watch lists for the Davey O'Brien Award (nation's best college quarterback) and Maxwell Award (colleg e player of the year). During the Utes' spring game in April, Brewer showed off his potential by completing 15 of 15 passes for 151 yards, two touchdowns and a quarterback rating of 228.6 in just one half of play. - Deseret News

The University of Utah has its next starting quarterback. Charlie Brewer will start the Sept. 2 season-opener vs. in-state FCS power Weber State at Rice-Eccles Stadium (5:30 p.m., Pac-12 Networks), multiple sources with knowledge of the situation told Th e Salt Lake Tribune on Monday morning. After Saturday's fall camp-ending live scrimmage at Rice-Eccles Stadium, Utah head coach Kyle Whittingham said he and his staff would make a decision later in the day, with the pick set to take over the offense when practice reconvened on Monday, 11 days until the opener. But on Monday afternoon, Whittingham said only that a full depth chart would be released later this week. - Salt Lake Tribune

The long-awaited, much-ballyhooed quarterback competition between Charlie Brewer and Cam Rising commences when the University of Utah football team opens fall camp on Wednesday afternoon. Brewer, a graduate transfer from Baylor, has the hype, thanks to a resume that includes 9,700 passing yards and 65 touchdowns across 44 games for the Big 12 program. Rising, a fourth-year sophomore, is not the incumbent, per se, but has already won the job once. Last season, Rising overcame another graduate transfer in South Carolina's Jake Bentley to win the job and started the season-opener vs. USC, but was lost for the season on the 14th offensive snap to a shoulder injury.So here we are: another training camp, another Utes quarterback competition on deck. U tah head coach Kyle Whittingham has never been one to fully show his cards when it comes to any position battle, but he made one thing about the timing of his choice clear when he spoke to The Salt Lake Tribune last week at Pac-12 media day. "Sooner rath er than later," Whittingham said when asked what his decision timeframe was to choose a quarterback. "As soon as we see that separation. As soon as we see it." - Salt Lake Tribune

Utah's 73-play effort on Saturday was no different, but the 6,500 present and the rest of the fans watching on Pac-12 Networks should be left thinking about two things. In the immediate aftermath of the 15th and final spring practice, Utah head coach Kyl e Whittingham said he believes this incarnation of the Utes is "going to be a complete football team." Furthermore, he stayed with an ongoing spring storyline by heaping praise upon Charlie Brewer, and with good reason. Brewer, a graduate transfer from B aylor, looked in complete control Saturday, going 15 for 15 for 151 yards and two touchdowns in the first half. It should be noted that the defense was not allowed to hit Brewer, so a handful of his dropbacks would have resulted in sacks during a real ga me, but no matter.Saturday marked Brewer's unofficial public unveiling in a Utah uniform, and he did not disappoint. "Clean, just like he's been all spring," Whittingham said. "He's a quick decision-maker, he's accurate, he gets the ball out of hi s hands quickly, he does a good job protecting the football. What you saw today is what we've been seeing all spring long, so it's going to be a great battle between him and Cam [Rising] come fall camp for that No. 1 spot. Charlie has really done an outs tanding job of integrating into our program." - Salt Lake Tribune

Utah's quarterback competition has not started yet, not really anyway. Whittingham has already made clear that Cameron Rising will get his shot during fall camp, when his surgically repaired right shoulder should allow him to compete at full strength. As Brewer seemingly continues to impress behind closed doors with no media access this spring due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as Whittingham continues to sound like he has found something at the most-important position on the field, can Rising legitimately s till win the job he won out of fall camp last season before getting hurt in the opener?We're not going to find that out until August, but in March and April, Brewer has clearly shown something after 9,700 passing yards, almost 11,000 yards of tota l offense, and 87 touchdowns in four seasons in the Big 12. "He does all the little things that make the difference between being just average and being really good," Whittingham said. "He's paid that price and it didn't start during spring ball. It star ted from the day he stepped on campus. He's been in that playbook, and in the film room, and what we see out on the field is the product of all that hard work." - Salt Lake Tribune

Baylor transfer Charlie Brewer continues to solidify himself as Utah's No. 1 quarterback as the Utes work through the fourth week of spring practices. Coach Kyle Whittingham was asked Tuesday if any QB has separated himself from the rest of the group. "C harlie Brewer, hands down. He's been everything we've hoped he'd be to this point. He's a proven vet," he said. "He's got a lot of experience under his belt at the Power Five level. He's thrown for a ton of yards and he's won a ton of games. That's what we expected. So far, he's been exactly what we've expected." During spring camp, Brewer, a senior, has been competing with a group of freshmen - Peter Costelli, Ja'Quinden Jackson, Cooper Justice and Bryson Barnes. Fans will be able to catch Brewer's fir st public performance as a Ute during the spring game on April 17 at Rice-Eccles Stadium. "Charlie Brewer, hands down. He's been everything we've hoped he'd be to this point. He's a proven vet. He's got a lot of experience under his belt at the Power Fiv e level. He's thrown for a ton of yards and he's won a ton of games. That's what we expected." - Utah coach Kyle Whittingham on Charlie Brewer separating himself from the pack of QBs. - Deseret News

University of Utah graduate transfer quarterback Charlie Brewer attempted over 1,300 passes across 44 games for Baylor from 2016-19. The other four Utes quarterbacks available during spring practice are freshmen, with a combined zero collegiate snaps bet ween them. Taking all of that information into account as Utah finishes up its second week of spring ball, it stands to reason that Brewer would seize early control of a quarterback competition that will surely drag into the summer. After Kyle Whittingha m spoke on the matter Friday morning, that assumption would be correct. "First of all, Charlie Brewer is quite a bit ahead of everybody else," the 17th-year Utah head coach said on a Zoom call with reporters. "The other four are freshmen, that's to be ex pected. Charlie's a senior with a lot of experience under his belt. The other four guys have almost no Division I experience, so that's no surprise to us. That's how things are unfolding to this point." Brewer may be ahead of everyone else, but all of Wh ittingham's quarterback options are not yet available, which is why this competition will eventually move to fall camp. - Salt Lake Tribune

Kyle Whittingham has four high-profile, Power Five transfers at his disposal as spring practice rolls on at the University of Utah, two at quarterback and two at running back. They may all be transfers, but they're not all in the same boat. As a graduate transfer from Baylor, quarterback Charlie Brewer is eligible immediately for the Utes. Normally, freshman quarterback Ja'Quinden Jackson, junior running back T.J. Pledger, and redshirt sophomore running back Chris Curry would have to either sit one seas on, or petition the NCAA for an immediate-eligibility waiver. The need for Jackson, Pledger and Curry to all sit out the 2021 season may soon disappear, though. On Wednesday, the NCAA Division I Council reaffirmed its preference to vote as soon as April on a legislative proposal that would allow student-athletes, regardless of sport, to transfer one time without having to sit a season as penalty. - Salt Lake Tribune

In January, the NCAA will likely pass legislation that would allow student-athletes to transfer once without the penalty of having to sit out for one season. "There will probably be more change and movement that's going to occur," Whittingham said. "That 's the way it seems to be heading. You've got to adjust as things change and try to get yourself in the best situation." The day after Utah's season ended, two quarterbacks announced they were joining the Utes: Baylor grad transfer Charlie Brewer and Tex as transfer Ja'Quinden Jackson. In December, Utah also signed four-star recruit Peter Costelli. Brewer led Baylor to an 11-1 record, a spot in the Big 12 championship game and a Sugar Bowl appearance in 2019. - Deseret News

After four seasons as Baylor's starting quarterback, Charlie Brewer announced Sunday that he's entering the transfer portal as a graduate transfer with intentions of playing his final year of eligibility at another college. Due to COVID-19, the 2020 seas on didn't count against players' eligibility. Like Brewer, the graduate transfer market will likely be heavy across the country.

Baylor quarterback Charlie Brewer came close to a career-high with 56 passing attempts against the Sooners, finishing short of the 63 passes he threw against Texas Tech as a freshman in 2017. Brewer completed 30 passes, one short of the season-high 31 he completed in 39 attempts in last week's win over Kansas State. Brewer threw for 263 yards against the Sooners, but wasn't satisfied with his performance. "I hate losing more than I love winning," Brewer said. "We just didn't play well enough to win and that starts with me." - Waco Tribune Herald

In the postgame conference following Baylor's triumphant victory over Kansas State, head coach Dave Aranda and Charlie Brewer's teammates sang nothing but praises for the quarterback's dynamic performance. Brewer finally came alive last Saturday and chan neled his 2019 self as he went 31 of 39 for 349 passing yards and two touchdowns. He also showed off his trademark skills as a runner, leading the Bears with 23 carries for 56 yards and a pair of touchdown runs. Brewer's teammates fed off his energy and recorded a season-high 420 yards of total offense. If the Bears can bring that same energy and confidence to Norman, they can hold their own against the Sooners. - Dallas Morning News

John Mayers kicked a 30-yard field goal on the final play of the game and Baylor beat Kansas State 32-31 Saturday night, ending the Bears' five-game losing streak. Charlie Brewer completed 31 of 39 passes for 349 yards and two touchdowns. The senior quar terback completed four passes in a row for 45 yards after it initially appeared he had fumbled on a run on the first play. Kansas State (4-5, 4-4 Big 12) has lost four in a row since starting 4-0 in conference play. The final drive for Baylor (2-5, 2-5) began from its 31 with a 5-yard run by Brewer, but with Kansas State coming up with the ball after it popped out. A long replay review determined that Brewer's knee was down before the fumble.Brewer also ran for 56 yards and two scores, while he w as sacked seven times to lose 23 yards. He had a 1-yard TD keeper with 4:16 left, before K-State went three-and-out and punted. Kansas State quarterback Will Howard threw a touchdown and ran for another, fellow true freshman Deuce Vaughn rushed for 102 y ards with a score. Howard's 24-yard TD run early in the fourth quarter put K-State up 24-15, a play after his 49-yard pass to wide-open tight end Briley Moore. Vaughn's 38-yard TD run countered a Brewer TD pass to Trestan Ebner. Brewer had an 7-yard TD o n a draw play to end Baylor's first drive, which was set up by the first of Howard's two interceptions. After the botched extra point, K-State went ahead when receiver Malik Knowles took a handoff on a sweep and ran 75 yards for a score. - Baylor/AP Coll ege Football

Mired in a five-game losing streak, first-year Baylor coach Dave Aranda still believes in his team and his senior quarterback. Aranda will continue to stick with fourth-year starter Charlie Brewer heading into the bye week before the Bears begin their cl osing three-game stretch against Kansas State on Nov. 28 at McLane Stadium. "Every game, we're fighting tooth and nail, and Charlie gives us the best opportunity to come out on top," Aranda said. "We want our best 11 out there, and quarterback is the guy we've got to have a lot of faith in." Aranda said that he talked to Brewer about a report of a death threat against him, but the quarterback told him there was nothing to it. "I approached Charlie about what took place, and we were ready to move to prot ect him to report to the Baylor police department, and he assured me it was nothing," Aranda said. "It was something his sister got that he didn't feel was directed at him or directed at her."If the game circumstances are right, Aranda said he wou ld consider playing sophomore Gerry Bohanon or redshirt freshman Jacob Zeno. Bohanon didn't travel to Texas Tech to take care of a personal issue, but Aranda said he is back with the team. Brewer has started 36 of the last 37 games since breaking into th e starting lineup in the ninth game of his freshman year in 2017 when he led the Bears to a 38-9 win over Kansas in Lawrence. It was Baylor's only win in a 1-11 season during Matt Rhule's first season as head coach. - Waco Tribune

Though senior quarterback Charlie Brewer has been erratic through the first four games, Aranda likes the experience and toughness he brings to the team. Some fans were calling for redshirt freshman Jacob Zeno to come in as the TCU game dragged on, but Ar anda stuck with Brewer. After hitting tight end Ben Sims on a one-yard pass for Baylor's first touchdown with 14 seconds left in the second quarter, Brewer led the Bears to 17 second-half points, including a three-yard touchdown pass to Sims. "There was a lot of positive with Charlie in that second half," Aranda said. "We've got to get it to where we're playing a complete game and Charlie's been Charlie. In speaking to him, his confidence is there, his want to perform at a real high level for the offens e and for his teammates is very high. So I feel a great responsibility to do what I can to give him that opportunity." - Waco Tribune Herald

Brewer had a knack for creating big plays last season, but he's yet to provide a spark in the Bears' underperforming offense. The starting quarterback engineered Baylor's solid comeback campaign but was 17-of-37 for 203 yards and two touchdowns and was s acked five times. Despite his shortcomings, Aranda has consistently reaffirmed his faith in Brewer. "There's a lot of positive with Charlie in that second half [against TCU]," Aranda said. "We've got to get it to where we're playing a complete game and C harlie's been Charlie. "In speaking to him, his confidence is there, his want to perform at a real high level for the offense and for his teammates is very high.

Four-year starter Charlie Brewer is the heart of the Baylor football team. It is pretty uncommon for universities to have a quarterback that starts all four years of their career, but Brewer brings consistency to Baylor's team. He has played in 38 games during his career at Baylor with 9,285 total offensive yards under his belt. He has totaled 57 passing and 18 rushing touchdowns. Brewer is one of just two returning FBS quarterbacks to pass for 20+ touchdowns and rush for 10+ touchdowns in 2019, the sam e year he led his team to a 8-1 Big 12 and 11-3 overall record, and eventually to the Sugar Bowl to play Georgia on New Year's Day. This season, Brewer is has a 65% completion rate with 658 total yards through just three games. - Dallas Morning News

Working under offensive coordinator Larry Fedora, the Bears hope Brewer won't take as many hits this season. Throughout preseason drills, Brewer has focused on releasing the ball quicker and staying in the pocket longer to avoid get slammed by defenders. "Coach Fedora has helped me a lot, just getting a good grasp of the offense and really just understanding the scheme and what we're trying to do," Brewer said. "I think he's helped me a lot with my feet, whether it's dropback or one-step quick game. He emphasizes getting the ball out quick. I do feel like my arm is stronger. I feel like my shoulder is healthy." Brewer put up big numbers last season as he completed 64.5 percent of his passes for 3,161 yards and 21 touchdowns with just seven interception s in 389 attempts. Brewer has seen strong progression in the offensive line as veterans like center Xavier Newman-Johnson, left tackle Connor Galvin and guard-tackle Casey Phillips have led a unit that appears to be much improved over last season. | | | | |
