CLEMSON, S.C. — Quarterbacks come and go, especially these days. Several ACC teams have had quick success with new passers who have had only a few months on campus. Several first-year passers with experience are making an immediate impact with Syracuse's Kyle McCord, Miami's Cam Ward and Wake Forest's Hank Bachmeier all among the country's top 10 quarterbacks after transferring. N.C. State coach Dave Doeren said the process of melding a new quarterback to your team can be seamless or take some time depending. Seamless or not, it's a new plug-and-play reality for college football.
