Former four star recruit and Iowa State quarterback J.J. Kohl will enter the transfer portal, according to a report from 247 Sports’ Chris Hummer.

The Ankeny native spent two seasons in Ames, securing his redshirt during his freshman year.

Kohl was 9-11 passing during his freshman season and rushed for 32 yards during his time on the field. This year, as a redshirt freshman, Kohl was on the field for only two snaps – both runs – throughout Iowa State’s 13 games.

Kohl was rated as a top 10 quarterback prospect in the country before arriving in Ames, and spent time at the Elite 11 camp during his prep days, as well.

He will have three years of eligibility remaining.
