NCAA transfer notebook: QB Conner Weigman finds new home

Quarterback Conner Weigman, a five-star prospect coming out of high school in the 2022 class, is transferring from Texas A&M to Houston.

Weigman started parts of three seasons for the Aggies. He played his high school football at Bridgeland High in the Houston suburb of Cypress and was ranked by the 247Sports composite as the No. 3 overall QB in the class.

"I'm coming home," he posted on social media late Wednesday. "Time to go to Work H-Town??"

With the Aggies, Weigman appeared in 15 games and threw for 2,694 yards with 19 touchdowns and seven interceptions. At Houston, he is expected to compete with quarterback Zeon Chriss, who, like Weigman, has two years of eligibility remaining.

Houston was 4-8 in the 2024 season.

--Former Boston College quarterback Thomas Castellanos is transferring to Florida State.

In two seasons with Boston College, Castellanos threw for 3,614 yards with 33 touchdowns and 19 interceptions. He also ran for 1,307 yards and 14 touchdowns.

Eagles coach Bill O'Brien decided in November to switch starting quarterbacks, opting to start Grayson James over Castellanos.

Castellanos spent his first college season in 2022 at UCF, where he was coached by Gus Malzahn -- now the Florida State offensive coordinator.

The Seminoles finished 2-10 in 2024.
