Can a homegrown quarterback help the Eagles keep improving?
Kentucky graduate transfer Patrick Towles helped Boston College go from 3–9 (and 0–8 in the ACC) in ’15 to bowl eligibility and conference wins—two, but that’s a lot better than zero—in ’16. Florida graduate transfer Tyler Murphy helped the Eagles go 7–6 and 4–4 in the ACC in ’14. There don’t appear to be any graduates of SEC schools willing to head north and play quarterback at the moment, so Steve Addazio will have to figure out how to succeed with a quarterback who has been on campus.
