BREAKING: Ole Miss RHP JT Quinn enters the transfer portal
OXFORD, Miss. — Ole Miss right-handed pitcher JT Quinn has entered the transfer portal, as confirmed by our sources. Quinn, a rising junior, pitched in 11 games for the Rebels this past season, starting three.
The 6-foot-6, 215-pound Quinn finished the 2024 season with a 1-3 record and 19.1 innings pitched.
In 2023, his freshman campaign, Quinn appeared in 17 games, making 12 starts, tied for second-most on the team. He finished third on the team in ERA (6.83), opposing batting average (.281), strikeouts (63), and innings pitched (55.1). The Tampa, Florida native finished the year with a 3-4 record.
