ACC Now

Eugene: Pack QBs a 'luxury'

Bookmark and Share

GREENSBORO - N.C. State running back Jamelle Eugene said having first-team All-ACC player Russell Wilson and promising redshirt freshman Mike Glennon at quarterback is a "luxury" that the Wolfpack hasn't had in a long time.

"It's great," Eugene said Sunday at the ACC media kickoff. "We've been struggling to have one (capable quarterback) for the last few yearas. We had a guy here or there. And kinda. And not really. And now we have one certified (Wilson) and another who looks just as good (Glennon)."

Eugene said Glennon's arm is comparable to Wilson's.

"They can both throw it, easily, probably 70 yards," Eugene said. "They can throw the rock, and they can throw a nice, tight spiral. Their accuracy is great. They have two kind of different deliveries. Russell is free lance and Glennon is textbook, but they both have great arms."

Beck

What about Beck? He had a great arm and could throw it a mile. Somebody caught just about every pass he threw.
