Garman announced he was leaving the Oklahoma State program earlier this spring after Mason Rudolph passed him on the depth chart last year and would be the team’s starting quarterback this year. Garman began his career with Arizona after high school before transferring to Stillwater to play for Mike Gundy’s program.

Maryland announced the news on Thursday afternoon.

Garman joins a quarterback competition that will be three-men deep when fall camp begins and includes Perry Hills and Shane Cockerille vying for the starting job. He started eight games last year before losing the job to the true freshman Rudolph at the end of the year. He threw for 2,041 yards, 12 touchdowns and 12 interceptions.

Hills completed 5-of-10 passes for 86 yards and a touchdown last year, but started the first seven games of his freshman season in 2012 after C.J. Brown was lost for the year with a torn ACL. He threw for 1,336 yards eight touchdowns and seven interceptions. Cockerille appeared in four games on special teams as a redshirt freshman last year.

Who do you think emerges as the winner of the quarterback competition at Maryland and is the starter for the Terps regular season opener vs the Richmond Spiders?
