Where did Baker Mayfield go to college?
Mayfield attended Texas Tech University. Shortly before the start of the 2013 season, Mayfield was named as the starting quarterback following a back injury of projected starter and former Lake Travis quarterback Michael Brewer. Mayfield is the first walk-on, true freshman quarterback, to start an FBS season opener at the quarterback position.
After playing for Texas Tech, Mayfield transferred to the University of Oklahoma in January 2014 but had not contacted the Sooners coaching staff. Mayfield further elaborated in an interview with ESPN that he sought to transfer due to scholarship issues and a perception that he had earned the starting position and that further competition was not “really fair.” The alleged scholarship issues were denied by Texas Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury.
