Does a great quarterback guarantee a great season?
Conversely, does a great season require a great quarterback?
David Cutcliffe is beginning his 12th season at Duke. Assuming an asteroid doesn’t hit the planet and end life as we know it appears that Daniel Jones will begin his NFL career in about five months.
Jones will be the third NFL quarterback of Cutcliffe’s Duke tenure. Thad Lewis had a decent NFL career, while Sean Renfree’s was more of the hold-the-clipboard variety. Lewis, Renfree and Jones were Duke’s starting quarterback for eight of Cutcliffe’s first 11 seasons.
