John Mateer, the starting quarterback for Washington State's 2024 season, has decided to transfer to the University of Oklahoma. Mateer's impressive performance last year, including over 3,000 passing yards and 29 touchdowns, has made him a highly sought-after prospect.
Former Washington State signal caller John Mateer announced his pledge to OU on Wednesday. In his first season as the Cougars’ starting quarterback, Mateer threw for 3,139 yards, 29 touchdowns and seven interceptions. He also ran for 826 yards and 15 touchdowns, helping WSU finish the 2024 season 8-4.The quarterback, originally from Little Elm, TX, completed 64.9% of his passes and finished with the 34th-best passer rating in NCAA Division I FBS college football.
This next one is from Washington State’s 2024 Spring Game, so take what you want. But Mateer’s ability to throw a good deep ball in this clip is impressive, no matter how you shake it. WSU’s projected starting QB, John Mateer, went 11/24 for 194 yards and 2 TD’s in the Spring Game today.This next one is a full montage of Mateer highlights during his one-year tenure as Washington State’s starting quarterback. But what I see as most impressive is his throw in the first clip.
Despite being a right-handed quarterback, Mateer shows that same ability to throw on the run. This time, he did so on the wrong foot and still found a man downfield perfectly, and it led to a touchdown in the Cougars’ 54-52 win against San Jose State.In the Cougars’ game against Washington on Sept. 14, Mateer faced significant pressure from the Huskies’ defensive line. But Mateer didn’t sweat.
But this run by Mateer kept Washington State’s offense moving. The Cougars scored on that drive, which helped them beat the Aztecs 29-26.In a goal-to-go situation against New Mexico, Mateer took the snap, looking for an open wideout. None came open.Washington State actually ended up losing this game in a 38-35 shootout. But this play kept the shootout and kept the Cougars in striking distance of the Lobos, even though they didn’t come away with the win.
