Jacoby Brissett has excellent pocket presence & elusiveness. Heard a ton of good things about him from #NCState staff & he’s lived up to it.

WVa QB RT @AllanTaylorWVU Trickett told us he had 5 concussions in 14 months, hiding 2 from trainers. Will retire from FB & begin coaching.

Where is Jeff Driskel headed?

Duke, from what I’m hearing. Nothing official although the fairly well-connected source I spoke to asked me what I thought about it like it was a done deal that everybody knew about. Makes sense on a lot of levels to pull a Tyler Murphy-to-BC deal. Duke is losing its starting senior QB who took like 99 percent of the snaps, and there is nothing on the roster but unproven freshmen and sophomores as backups, and none appear to be the sure next-in-line. He goes to a good program, that needs him, probably has a sense of the offense Duke runs, in a conference where the defenses are slightly worse than what he’s used to. Wouldn’t surprise me. Just a heads-up
