Retzlaff, who recently withdrew from BYU to avoid a reported seven-game suspension due to an honor code violation, now looks for a new situation

(Trent Nelson | The Salt Lake Tribune) Brigham Young Cougars quarterback Jake Retzlaff (12) and Brigham Young Cougars wide receiver Jojo Phillips (13) celebrate a touchdown as BYU hosts Southern Illinois, NCAA football in Provo on Saturday, Aug. 31, 2024.

Given the severity of the allegations Retzlaff faced, Tulane spent more than a week doing background on the transfer quarterback and had the school’s Title IX office review the move, according to ESPN. The report added that Retzlaff will join the Green Wave as a walk-on, as he was unable to enter the NCAA transfer portal given when he left BYU.
