[URL='http://espn.go.com/college-football/player/_/id/514440/terrel-hunt']Terrel Hunt[/URL] kept his job. [/B]Coach Scott Shafer wanted Hunt to build off the momentum he generated toward the end of last season and earn the starting quarterback job again this spring. Hunt won 2013 team MVP honors the night before the spring game, then went out and connected on 12 of 15 passes for 95 yards, leaving little doubt that the offense will revolve around him in 2014. [B]2. [URL='http://espn.go.com/college-football/player/_/id/545262/john-miller']John Miller[/URL] has the inside track at center.[/B] The offensive line was hammered by injuries this spring, but Miller, a juco transfer from Los Angeles Harbor College, took a big step, emerging as the likely front-runner to start in the middle. Miller's rise could keep [URL='http://espn.go.com/college-football/player/_/id/514460/rob-trudo']Rob Trudo[/URL]at guard after he initially switched to center this spring. [B]3.

He took advantage of extra reps with [URL='http://espn.go.com/college-football/player/_/id/501230/luke-arciniega']Luke Arciniega[/URL] out with a lower body injury.

Bromley manned the interior of the front, leading the team with 10 sacks and 14.5 tackles for loss. Spruill manned the middle of the field, matching Bromley with 14.5 tackles for loss, finished second with 5.5 sacks and ranked third on the team with 66 tackles. Not only does Syracuse lose their production, it also loses the veteran leadership both provided at their respective positions. The two combined to play in 101 career games, with 82 career starts...

He wanted to assess the talent in the program, both on the offensive line and at other positions. He wanted to get a feel for the offensive system — or glean as much as one can during a spring game. And he wanted to take a peek at the depth chart to measure just how likely it will be for him to come in and play early. "That's something I really like," said Conway. "I want to play early."...

ESPN.com recently interviewed every athletic director in the ACC about their scheduling preference, and there was no overwhelming majority. Half of the athletic directors -- including a surprising vote from Georgia Tech, which already has a built-in rival against Georgia -- were in favor of a nine-game conference schedule. Three schools -- Boston College, Virginia Tech and North Carolina -- didn't give a specific preference, and three schools -- Duke, Clemson and Florida State -- would prefer to stay at eight games. Louisville AD Tom Jurich, who was simply thrilled to be a member of the conference this summer, was indifferent. While no vote is guaranteed at the spring meetings, which will be held May 12-15, many ACC athletic directors are hoping for some closure to the ongoing debate...
