High school career

Doege played at Lubbock–Cooper High School in Lubbock, Texas. Although he passed for 3,363 yards and 33 touchdowns during his senior season, he was not heavily recruited.[2] Rated as the No. 55 pro–style quarterback in the country by 247Sports.com,[3] he committed to Bowling Green on March 28, 2016.[4]

College career

Bowling Green

As a freshman at Bowling Green, Doege battled with James Morgan throughout the season for the starting quarterback position, eventually winning the job by the end of the season.[5] In seven games, he passed for 1,381 yards, 12 touchdowns, and 3 interceptions.[6]

Doege was named the starting quarterback at Bowling Green for his sophomore season after Morgan's transfer to FIU.[7] In his first season as the starter, he passed for 2,660 yards, 27 touchdowns, and 15 interceptions.[6] The team, however, struggled as they went 3–9 and fired head coach Mike Jinks after the season.[8]

West Virginia

On May 8, 2019, Doege announced that he was entering the transfer portal and leaving Bowling Green.[9] Eight days later, he committed to West Virginia under head coach Neal Brown, who had coached his brother Seth as an offensive coordinator at Texas Tech.[10][11] He was redshirted, but he was able to play in four games under the NCAA's new transfer rules. Playing behind starter Austin Kendall, he passed for 818 yards, 7 touchdowns, and 3 interceptions.[6]

Doege beat out Kendall to start for West Virginia before the 2020 season.[12] During the 2020 season, he threw for 2,587 yards, 14 touchdowns, and 4 interceptions while West Virginia finished with a 6–4 record.[6][13]

On December 31, 2021, Doege announced he would enter the transfer portal.

Western Kentucky

On January 16, 2022, Doege announced he would transfer to Western Kentucky.

Doege's older brother, Seth, is a college football coach at USC and was a player at Texas Tech.
