True freshman QBs who led teams to the best seasons. | Sports on Earth
As the debate continues over whether Nkosi can win the starting job at QB let's look at the ceiling for true freshman QBs. Looking through this list it is pretty obvious even IF Nkosi is as physically gifted as players like Dan Marino, Matt Stafford, Peyton Manning (All of whom took over due to injury as true freshmen) it would be a statistical and historical anomaly for him to deliver what we all are seeking this season our first ACC Championship. Kayaa had some of the best stats ever for a true Freshman, and still lost 7 games.
1985 Canes beat the only true freshman QB to ever win a national championship, OU's Jamelle Hollieway. At least Nkosi wouldn't need to set a precedent...
