This is probably the best move for Hilinski. He started several games as a true freshman, he lost out on the starting job in 2020 and the Gamecocks now have a new head coach.
A change of scenery will probably do him a ton of good.

I also don’t think a lot of people realize just how hyped Hilinski was when he showed up to Columbia going into last season.
He was viewed as a monster quarterback prospect, and he showed off some serious potential. I have no doubt at all that he’s bound for some big things wherever he lands.

I have a feeling a major P5 program is about to land a very legit passer. Hopefully, he finds nothing but success at his next landing spot.
