1. Michael Pratt, Tulane

— He’s so smart when it comes to when to run and when to go through progressions, and he takes care of the football. 27 touchdowns and only 5 picks last season is epic.

Jan 2, 2023; Arlington, Texas, USA; Tulane Green Wave quarterback Michael Pratt (7) and USC Trojans defensive lineman Nick Figueroa (99) in action during the game between the USC Trojans and the Tulane Green Wave in the 2023 Cotton Bowl at AT&T Stadium.

2. Austin Reed, Western Kentucky

— Reed flirted with transferring again, but why leave WKU, where he threw 40 touchdowns and led the nation in passing yards?

Western quarterback Austin Reed (16) passes the ball during the MTSU Homecoming game on Saturday, Oct. 15, 2022.

3. Grayson McCall, Coastal Carolina

— He flirted with Auburn and some others, but he’ll be back coming off a rough end of last season, where he showed great toughness and leadership.

Nov 3, 2022; Conway, South Carolina, USA; Coastal Carolina Chanticleers quarterback Grayson McCall (10) throws a pass in the first half against the Appalachian State Mountaineers at Brooks Stadium.

4. Frank Harris, UTSA

— Harris is back for what seems like his 10th season but not many players are more dangerous.
