Jamar was posting practice and scrimmage highlights to his Twitter over the last few days, I was getting worried. Jamar should have started the last four games in 2025. To me, easily the most talented/balanced QB we had on the roster.
There is a reason was the highest FCS HS QB recruit, and held offers from Arizona, Cal, ISU, LOU, Miami, Oregon, Tenn, Utah, and more...

Have to imagine that basically means you’re the guy and it’s your job to lose going into this season.
And he’s not the first one I’ve seen by any means but the “I’m Back” posts I find very comical.
I feel like that a lot of these guys out there bouncing around the portal multiple times simply have a need to feel glorified and sought after and just want to be able to keep posting forever teams are offering them scholarships year after year. Just such a weird era.

Social media has referred to him as a D2 All American. Last season 18 tackles, 1 INT, was not able to personally find anything confirming the All American status either but… Hopefully, he rises up to the occasion!

JUCO transfer at possibly a hybrid OLB/SS position

The only reason he'll come back to SAC is because he wants to play for Bobby Fresques again...and I like our chances.

I have spoken to Carson Conklin and Carson Camp - they both have interest in returning to Bobby's QB room.

Well this is something… a nice retention

And the QB room is filling back up… The guy was a freshman last year and has no stats yet. None of the QBs being brought in have the experience of Conklin or Camp, but filling up nonetheless.

Transfer DB from Illinois with 1 year left. Did not register any game time last season.

Imagine him with someone that can actually throw the ball like Malone, Conklin or Camp.

Carson Conklin – 2026 Transfer Portal Predictions
1. Sacramento State (Return) — 30%
Why:
- Familiar system, staff relationships, and immediate opportunity to start.
- Sac State has shown a willingness to bring back experienced QBs.
- If the Hornets retool after portal losses, a veteran QB reunion makes sense.
Risk: Pride + desire to stay FBS could reduce odds.
2. San José State — 20%
Why:
- Mountain West fit with QB turnover likely by 2026.
- Geographic comfort (NorCal).
- SJSU has historically taken portal QBs and maximized them.
Risk: Competition from younger FBS portal QBs.
3. Nevada — 18%
Why:
- Program still rebuilding and actively shopping experienced quarterbacks.
- Opportunity for immediate reps and leadership role.
- Similar competitive tier to Fresno State experience.
Risk: Program instability and coaching continuity.
4. UC Davis — 17%
Why:
- Elite FCS program with playoff expectations.
- Short travel, strong O-line play, QB-friendly offense.
- A chance to dominate at the FCS level and reset his stock.
Risk: Perceived as a “step down” after FBS experience.
5. Colorado State — 15%
Why:
- QB room turnover is common under modern MW roster churn.
- Willing to take multi-transfer QBs with experience.
- Bigger offensive platform if he wins the job.
Risk: Higher NIL competition and portal congestion.
