<a href="https://www.on3.com/college/new-mexico-lobos/">New Mexico Lobos</a> quarterback <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/devon-dampier-36365/">Devon Dampier</a> has committed to Transfer to the <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/utah-utes/">Utah Utes</a>.



Dampier played high school football at Phoenix (Ariz.) <a href="https://www.on3.com/high-school/pinnacle-phoenix-az-10454/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Pinnacle</a>, where he was a three-star prospect in the <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/rankings/industry-player/football/2023/">Class of 2023</a>, according to the <a href="https://www.on3.com/news/on3-industry-ratings-rankings/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">On3 Industry Ranking</a>, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He was the 91st-ranked quarterback and the 1,683rd-ranked player overall in that recruiting cycle.

In two seasons with the Lobos Devon Dampier played in 21 games. He completed 58.6 percent of his passes for 18 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. He also averaged 7.3 yards per attempt. On the ground, Dampier has been excellent. He has 1,494 rushing yards for 23 touchdowns on 7.0 yards per attempt.



In 2024, Devon Dampier helped lead New Mexico to a 5-7 record. That was under <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/coach/bronco-mendenhall-133962/">Bronco Mendenhall</a> and was the team’s best season by record since 2016. However, Mendenhall has since left after one season with the program.

Now with Utah, Devon Dampier expects to compete for the starting job with the Utes. There, he enters a program that has had some consistent issues with injuries at the quarterback position the last two seasons. <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/cameron-rising-18045/">Cam Rising</a>, who previously had a lot of success with Utah missed all of 2023 with a knee injury. He returned for 2024, but shortly into the season was injured again, forcing multiple other quarterbacks into action.



The most notable of those quarterbacks to replace Cam Rising was <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/isaac-wilson-49307/">Isaac Wilson</a>, the younger brother of <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/zach-wilson-123166/">Zach Wilson</a>. He threw for 1,510 yards and 10 touchdowns to 11 interceptions on the season. He has also since entered the Transfer Portal himself.



There were also questions about whether or not <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/coach/kyle-whittingham-133984/">Kyle Whittingham</a> would return to Utah this season. However, he has since announced his return for the 2025 season. That will be his 22nd season as the program’s head coach. 



Devon Dampier has two seasons of eligibility remaining.
