Kincade was a four-star recruit, according to Scout.com, with offers Mississippi State, Notre Dame, Kansas State and Texas Tech. He signed with Ole Miss, then transferred to Grambling before this season.

Arizona fans won’t soon forget Kincade: He completed 15 of 19 passes for two touchdowns in Saturday’s first half before exiting with an injury.
