Luster Named Ball State QB vs. No. 1 Ohio State
24 Aug
Summary
- Keldric Luster, a transfer, will start at quarterback for Ball State.
- Luster has limited game experience across three seasons with two prior teams.
- Ohio State faces Ball State on September 5th before playing Texas.

The Ball State Cardinals have reportedly named Keldric Luster their starting quarterback for their upcoming season opener against the top-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes. This decision provides clarity for the Cardinals as they prepare to face Ohio State in Columbus on September 5th.
Luster, a junior transfer from Texas State and SMU, has a limited track record in college football. In three seasons, he has completed only four passes across a few appearances for both SMU and Texas State. Despite playing for a Texas State team that achieved a bowl victory last season, Luster saw minimal playing time.
This lack of game film on Luster may present an advantage for Ohio State. However, the Buckeyes will soon turn their attention to another major challenge: an away game against the No. 5 Texas Longhorns on September 12th. This sequence of games marks a demanding start to Ohio State's season, beginning with Ball State and followed by a high-profile matchup with Texas seeking revenge from last year's contest.
