— Transfer Portal (@TransferPortal) January 6, 2026Minchey is a big pickup for Kentucky. He served as CJ Carr’s backup quarterback this season, but nearly won the starting job in at the end of a tight quarterback competition during fall camp.
Depending on how things go, Minchey could end up as a multi-year starter for the Wildcats. He initially signed with Notre Dame as a 4-star recruit back in the class of 2023. He redshirted in 2023 and has 2 years of eligibility remaining.
Minchey has been efficient as a passer so far in his college career, albeit in a very small sample. He’s 23-of-29 for 212 yards in his career. He’s also rushed for 96 yards on 9 carries and has scored 2 rushing touchdowns.
Kentucky will presumably be looking to make other transfer additions alongside Minchey in the coming days.
