Samari Collier brings dual-threat juice — but 2026 status is in flux
In the 2025 season at Coastal Carolina, Samari Collier flashed as a true dual-threat quarterback, finishing with 489 passing yards, 7 passing touchdowns, 429 rushing yards, and 7 rushing scores, which is exactly the kind of extra-decorated box score that keeps coordinators up at night. He’s a compact, physical runner with game-breaking mobility, and his profile has been strong enough to draw transfer interest; however, his 2026 path has been clouded by transfer movement and eligibility/legal uncertainty, so teams should view him as an intriguing upside play rather than a settled plug-and-play starter.
