Former Texas A&M Aggies QB Zach Calzada has committed to the Kentucky Wildcats

Former Texas A&M Aggies quarterback Zach Calzada is returning to the SEC.

Following his decision to leave Incarnate Word this week and enter the NCAA transfer portal, Calzada was looking for his fourth home in as many years.

According to reports from On3, he has now found that home and is committing to the Kentucky Wildcats on Thursday. He still has one year of eligibility left.

Last season, Calzada posted one of the best seasons in school history with the Cardinals, including an 11-3 record and a Southland Conference championship, while also throwing for 3,744 yards and 35 touchdowns.

For the Aggies, Calzada took over for Haynes King, who is a season-ending 2021 starter after suffering a leg injury in Week 2 against Colorado. In 12 games, he completed 56.3 percent of his passes for 2,185 yards, 17 touchdowns and nine interceptions.

Calzada is probably best remembered in College Station for his epic performance against then-No. 1 Alabama in 2021. Completing 21 of 31 passes, Calzada threw for 285 yards and three touchdowns en route to a 41-38 upset win at Kyle Field.

After an 8-4 season, Calzada announced he was transferring from Texas A&M to Auburn. He never saw the field for the Tigers before entering the portal and making his way to Incarnate Word.
