Miller Moss, a former USC quarterback, is reportedly transferring to Louisville after four seasons with the Trojans, according to ESPN's Pete Thamel.

The junior was one of the most "coveted players in the NCAA transfer portal," per Thamel, throwing for 2,555 yards and 18 touchdowns this season with a 64.5 percent completion rate.

Moss is the No. 10 overall player and No. 3 quarterback in the ESPN Portal Rankings. He led the Trojans to a 6-6 record and a ninth-place finish in the Big Ten, securing a Bowl game appearance at the Las Vegas Bowl against Texas A&M on Dec. 27.

In a social media post addressed to "Trojan Nation," Moss expressed his gratitude for the past four years in sunny Los Angeles.

"Being a USC Trojan was a lifelong dream of mine. Putting on the cardinal and gold and completing on behalf of my teammates and school is something I will forever take pride in," he wrote.

Moss took over the starting job at USC this season, surpassing UNLV transfer Jayden Maiava in the fall. He had previously been on the bench, backing up former Heisman Trophy winner Caleb Williams in 2022 and 2023.

He earned his first start in the 2023 Holiday Bowl against Louisville, where he threw for 372 yards and a bowl-record six touchdowns.

The Los Angeles native chose Louisville over Missouri after visiting both universities this past week, according to Sports Illustrated's Matthew McGavic. Moss is the sixth transfer to join Louisville during this cycle, joining the 8-4 program.

He is joining four other scholarship quarterbacks including Pierce Clarkson, Deuce Adams, Mason Mims and Harrison Bailey.

Moss ended his statement with an affirmation to become the best quarterback he can be in his new destination.

"Looking towards the future, I'm unwaveringly committed to becoming an even better quarterback and leader, and to achieving this at the next level," Moss wrote. "In order to realize these goals, I am entering the transfer portal as a graduate student."
