Matthew Sluka, the starting quarterback for undefeated UNLV, took to social media Tuesday to announce he is done done for the season.
“I committed to UNLV based on certain representations that were made to me, which were not upheld after I enrolled,” Sluka, who will take a red shirt year, posted on X. “Despite discussions, it became clear that these commitments would not be fulfilled in the future. I wish my teammates the best of luck this season and hope for the continued success of the program.”
Sluka, a senior, completed 21 of 48 passes for 318 yards and six touchdowns for the Rebels (3-0) this season. He has also rushed 39 times for 286 yards and a touchdown.
UNLV is scheduled to host Fresno State (3-1, 1-0) in its Mountain West Conference opener Saturday.
He rushed for an NCAA Division I quarterback record 330 yards in a loss to Lafayette in 2023.
