CHARLOTTE, N.C. - ACC Kickoff is underway and the new Miami Hurricanes quarterback is already being mentioned as one of the best in the conference.
ACC Network host Justin Walters has some high expectation for Washingotn State transfer quarterback Cameron Ward and even with the Miami Hurricanes team. There was some push back from co-host Mark Packer who sarcastically said "every year is Miami's year" but for the quarterback, they were in agreeance with the potential talent.
"Cam Ward to me is the most confident quarterback in the ACC. He hasn't even played a snap but you could feel it from the second he walked into the conference," Walters said.

Statically, Ward is one of the best quarterbacks in the country, not just the ACC. He is the second highest passing yard leader that is returning to play college football this season. That was while running for his life and getting sacked 38 times but, with the weapons and a consistent offensive line around him, he could explode for over 4000 yards. Some also have him as a dark horse heisman contender and will answer some of those questions at ACC Kickoff as a member of the Miami Hurricanes player group set to media day.
