Starring roles? ACC still has plenty of depth at QB
Not an in depth story but a nice nod to the ACC for the depth at QB. The pertinent portion:
If Jones’ rapid development was a bit lost in the shuffle last year, Syracuse QB Eric Dungey might be working even more under the radar.
Injuries derailed Dungey’s season the past two years, but despite working in two completely different systems, he’s completed 63 percent of his throws and accounted for 37 touchdowns in just 16 career starts. In coach Dino Babers’ high-flying offense this year, his stat line could explode. In fact, just combine the numbers of Dungey and his backup, Zack Mahoney, from 2016 and you’ll get a line (31 touchdowns, 3,962 yards, 15 turnovers) that pretty closely resembles that of Alabama’s Jalen Hurts (3,774/36/14).
"I’ve put on about 20 pounds since last season, so I'm finally at a playing weight that I'm comfortable with," Dungey said. "Staying healthy, it's obviously important. That's the most important thing, is getting reps in this offense."
Gotta love it when our QB production is on par with Alabama. Of course, next season, Alabama will be comparing QB production to Syracuse, but this will do for now.
