College career

Bohanon served as a backup quarterback in his true freshman, redshirt freshman, and sophomore seasons, primarily to Charlie Brewer. Bohanon became the starting quarterback for the 2021 season, his junior season, leading the Bears to an 9–2 start, including three ranked wins, before a hamstring injury in November kept him out of the team's remaining games for the season. In his first six games, he threw zero interceptions. He led the Bears to a 21–7 Sugar Bowl win over Ole Miss. As starter, Bohanon led Baylor to 12–2 record, the most wins in a single season in the school's history. The Bears finished the season in the Top-10 in the AP Poll.[4]

On May 8, 2022, he announced his transfer to USF. On November 28, 2023, Bohanon entered the transfer portal for a second time where he committed to Brigham Young University on January 4, 2024.[5]
