The short version
2 of the 6 quarterbacks on the 2026 roster project to leave before 2027.
The quarterbacks projected to return produced 77% of last season's production at the position.
Its opening score of 18 ranks 6th of 10 Mountain West quarterback rooms.

The room by class
No class split for this room. Every class here has fewer than 3 quarterbacks, and a split that small could point at one player, so only the room totals are shown.
How open is it?
The opening score runs from 0 (no room) to 100 (wide open). 60% of it is the share of last season's quarterback production that's projected to leave. 40% is how many starting spots aren't already held by returning starters or proven incoming transfers.
Quarterbacks here: 23% of production projected to leave, 0 incoming. Score: 18/100. It's a projection from public data, not a depth chart.
