UNC’s star quarterback Sam Howell has received an abundance of attention this offseason. In fact, his name can be seen on almost every watch list in college football prior to what should be a promising season for the Tar Heels. This morning another title was added to his name, and that is ACC Preseason Player of the Year.
Today it was announced that Howell received an overwhelming amount of the votes for preseason ACC POY by media members. Coming into second place of his 114 votes was Miami quarterback D’Eriq King, who received just 11 nods, and in third place was Clemson defensive lineman Bryan Bresee with eight votes.
