Kaylan Wiggins, Southeastern (FL), Player News
|
Over the past three years, only three schools have had multiple quarterbacks drafted - reigning national champion LSU, perennial power Oklahoma … and FIU. FIU's two QBs drafted - Alex McGough in the 2018 seventh round and James Morgan in the 2020 fourt h - are almost as many as the entire Atlantic Coast Conference's three passers selected during that span. To be fair, two of those ACC quarterbacks were first-rounders, including 2019 NFL MVP Lamar Jackson. Still, FIU's recent success at the position is a nice feat, especially for a mid-major program, and, once the new season gets underway, the Panthers will again be looking for a new quarterback. FIU coach Butch Davis, hired in November of 2016, will have a lot to choose from because he has signed one freshman quarterback in each of his four recruiting classes - Kaylan Wiggins in 2017, Caleb Lynum in 2018, Stone Norton in 2019 and Haden Carlson in 2020. Those four passers figure to battle for the starting job, although it's also possible that a gradua te transfer could be brought in this summer. - Miami Herald

As a kid, Kaylan Wiggins would play tackle football in the street, without pads. "We didn't play two-hand touch," said Wiggins, who is from Sanford, located 20 miles northeast of Orlando. "You had to be tough. "If you saw you were going to get hit, you d id your best to get to the grass, near the sidewalk. "Playing on the street is where I learned to make people miss because the consequences of getting hit were felt a lot more than in regular football." Those lessons from Sanford have helped shape Wiggin s into, potentially, FIU's next standout quarterback. FIU's two previous starters at the position were Alex McGough, a 2018 seven-round pick who is a backup/practice-squad player for the Houston Texans; and James Morgan, who was drafted in the fourth rou nd by the New York Jets last month.For perspective, the Hurricanes haven't had a quarterback drafted since Brad Kaaya (sixth round, 2017). FIU, meanwhile, has had two straight starting QBs drafted, and Wiggins hopes he's next. Wiggins showed what he could do when he earned what is - so far - his only collegiate start, a 30-17 win over New Hampshire on Sept. 14. Using the make-you-miss skills he learned on the streets of Sanford, Wiggins ran for 187 yards - a school record for a quarterback - and two touchdowns. He also completed 12-of-18 passes for 127 yards, giving FIU its first win of the 2019 season. - Miami Herald

Kaylan Wiggins ran for 187 yards on 14 carries and two touchdowns and Florida International rallied to beat New Hampshire 27-17 on Saturday. Wiggins also completed 12-of-18 passes for 127 yards. Max Brosmer threw an 86-yard touchdown pass to D Laube with 10:20 left in the third quarter to give the Wildcats their last lead of the game at 17-13. Wiggins' 4-yard TD run with 6:57 left in the third quarter on the FIU's next possession put the Wildcats (2-1) up for good and ended a seven-play, 67-yard drive. After forcing New Hampshire to punt on its next possession, Tony Gaiter IV returned a short punt for 34 yards, but before being tackled, pitched the ball to Dimitry Prophete who ran it in from the 10-yard line for a 2-17 lead. Brosmer threw for 224 yards , two touchdowns and an interception for New Hampshire (0-2). - Florida International/AP College Football
