Michigan State quarterback Katin Houser commits to East Carolina
Michigan State transfer quarterback Katin Houser has committed to East Carolina.
The former four-star prospect in the 2021 class spent the past 48 hours on campus with the Pirates. Mike Houston and ECU land their next quarterback who has starting experience in the Big Ten. As a redshirt freshman this year, he ascended to the starting quarterback job for the Spartans. In 11 games this year, the 6-foot-3, 215-pound quarterback was 112 of 191 for 1,132 yards and six touchdowns and five interceptions.
Coming out of St. John Bosco, Houser had offers from nearly every Pac-12 school. He flipped his commitment from Boise State to the Spartans in June 2021. He was also an Elite 11 Finals participant. But with a new head coach in East Lansing, the quarterback was ready to explore his options in the portal. Michigan State hired Oregon State head coach Jonathan Smith last month.
His grandfather, John Houser, was a two-time all-WAC offensive guard and AP All-America honorable mention at Arizona State. With three years remaining of eligibility, Katin Houser gives East Carolina its quarterback of the future. With a quick release and ability to throw on the run, he has the traits to fit step right in as a starting quarterback.
