It was recently announced that Tyler Shough has decided to transfer from Texas Tech to Louisville after three seasons with the Red Raiders. Shough, a redshirt junior, was the starting quarterback for the Red Raiders in 2020, and he made a big impact on the team. He threw for 2,521 yards and 17 touchdowns in his first season as a starter, and he also ran for 511 yards and four touchdowns.
Shough’s decision to transfer to Louisville is an interesting one, as the Cardinals have a new head coach in Scott Satterfield. Satterfield is known for his high-octane offense, which is a stark contrast to the more conservative offense that Texas Tech ran under former head coach Matt Wells. It will be interesting to see how Shough fits into Satterfield’s system, and how he can help the Cardinals improve on their 8-5 record from last season.
Shough’s decision to transfer is also notable because of the talent he brings to Louisville. He has the size and athleticism to be a successful quarterback in the ACC, and he has plenty of experience as a starter. He also has the leadership qualities that will be needed for the Cardinals to take the next step in their development.
It will be interesting to see how Shough fares in his new home at Louisville. He has the potential to be a great quarterback for the Cardinals, and he could be the missing piece that helps them reach their goals of winning an ACC championship. Only time will tell, but it’s clear that Shough is ready to make an impact at his new school.
