Austin Kendall (born January 21, 1998) is an American football quarterback who last played for the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs.
[1] As a freshman at Oklahoma in 2016, Kendall appeared in two games as a backup to Baker Mayfield, completing 16 of 22 passes for 143 yards with two touchdowns.
[5][6] Initially, Oklahoma was not willing to grant Kendall immediate eligibility to play at West Virginia, citing an NCAA rule giving them such power if he transferred to another school in the same conference (both Oklahoma and West Virginia are members of the Big 12 Conference).
In his debut, Kendall went 20-for-36 on pass attempts, threw for 269 yards, 2 touchdowns, and 1 interception in the 35–34 loss to Mississippi State.
Kendall's father, Brian, played quarterback at Georgia and his brother, Ryan, was a wide receiver at Kentucky.
