(Pasadena) – Quarterback Kaiden Agbunag, from McClintock High in Tempe Arizona, has transferred to Muir Mustangs head coach Matt Villasenor confirmed Wednesday.
Agbunag, Class of 2029, already has six Division 1 offers including Colorado, Hawaii and Sacramento State. Agbunag enrolled at Muir last week and participated in a passing league event last Friday and has been practicing with the Mustangs this week.
Arthur Moreno has been the quarterback at Muir throughout the spring and summer and has looked good in the process. Villasenor indicated that Agbunag would have to compete with Moreno for the starting position.
The Mustangs kick off the season August 21 at Bonita.

He is a used car salesman.Where has he won? anything?
Color me shocked!!! 😮
It’s truly refreshing and reassuring to see MVS commentators come together on this issue ! It’s rare to see this type of unanimity of opinion , and I’m happy to embellish previous points . This move makes transferring to Nogales from Castaic look like neighborhood jaunt !
Agbunag played for mid level Arizona school last year . Team was 5-5 . They feasted on lower level teams in their league and piled up huge scores in those games . They played up in non league and blown out in those games
He’s undersized by D1 standards, and schools listed as offering have lowest tier NIL $$$. Thus the allure of California competition, and whatever bag of pyrite dust Coach Poach can throw in his eyes becomes irresistible.
It will be very interesting to see how this influences team chemistry and the fortunes of Muir football! They had to make a move now , because once the games start the adjustments vanish .
Matty V is a known hustler in this business, promising scholarships left and right. Since this jock has already secured D1 offers, the likely draw here is NIL money. This means our good buddy Villasenor has taken recruiting into the next dimension. Will this guy start? Does a wild bear crap in the woods?
I live in a LA I don’t know where Muir is hahaha
There’s no way that this happened normally. Why would a highly regarded QB from Arizona move to CA and choose to play for Matty V out of all people?
$$$$
What is the point of this? Didn’t they already have a pretty solid QB. It’s truly sad what has become of high school football and what the local pundits are now pushing. You have some of the truly great coaches doing it with their backyard kids doing an amazing job and the story that sells is the one about the grifting coach going out and shopping for a QB the same way he’s done it at every other stop.
I am sorry. I wish everyone well, but it is difficult to get excited about this kind of stuff.
