"Along with the most wins, Becht will be among the most productive quarterbacks in college football to return. His 9,274 passing yards ranks second behind TCU transfer Josh Hoover among returning players. Becht also has 64 touchdown passes and 83 total touchdowns, which are both top five among returning quarterbacks. Becht's former coach, Matt Campbell, left for Penn State. The Nittany Lions will be among the projected destinations, but Becht is expected to be open to listening to all schools before making a decision."
"He dealt with injuries in 2025 and recently had labrum surgery on his nonthrowing shoulder. He also dealt with an AC sprain in his throwing shoulder late in the year. Becht is a redshirt junior who has one year of eligibility remaining. He redshirted in 2022 and earned the starting job in 2023, winning Big 12 Offensive Freshman of the year. He has rushed for 499 yards and 19 touchdowns in his career."
