BYU coach Kalani Sitake is not directly addressing the status of Jake Retzlaff amid reports that the quarterback is transferring after being accused of sexual assault in a civil lawsuit that was dismissed.

But while there are talented options in the room, the loss of Retzlaff dramatically shapes the Big 12 race.

Retzlaff hasn't officially put his name in the transfer portal. It was initially believed he had two ways of playing for another school in the 2025 season. However, one of those isn't going to happen
