Phommachanh returns to the transfer portal

After less than seven months at Georgia Tech, quarterback Taisun Phommachanh is on the move once again. Phommachanh transferred from Clemson to the Flats last summer, but he found himself on the bottom end of the quarterback depth chart throughout the season.

Following injuries to starter Jeff Sims and freshman quarterback Zach Pyron, Phommachanh finally saw his first action as a Yellow Jacket against North Carolina in week 12 in a rotation with Zach Gibson.
He played just 32 snaps in the final two games of the season echoing his limited action at Clemson over three seasons with the Tigers.

The former Rivals 250 quarterback is the second quarterback to transfer out of the program following Sims' departure. That leaves the two Zachs as the lone scholarship quarterbacks on the roster at this time. The Jackets do not have a high school quarterback commit in this class and Brent Key and his staff are likely going to tap a portal quarterback or two this offseason to fill out the room.
