  Draft Scout by Conference









  Five days of spring football practice is too limited a sample for a newly-organized coaching staff to make accurate player assessments. That's all Boston College had after first-year head coach Jeff Hafley had to suspend the Eagles' remaining 10 practice sessions and the annual Jay McGillis Memorial spring football game in response to the global COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the small window, Hafley and offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach Frank Cignetti formed a favorable impression of Notre Dame transfer quarterback Phil Jurkovec. "I just think from practice one to practice five he looked like a different kid," said Hafley during a conference call. "He started to get really comfortable with the system and the players and you could start to see some leadership pop out of him."

Jurkovec, a 6-4, 227-pound, redshirt sophomore from Pittsburgh, performed his tasks under a veil of uncertainty. Jurkovec applied for a waiver to the NCAA's transfer regulation so he could eligible for the 2020 season and is awaiting their decision. Jurkovec will compete for the starting job against incumbent Dennis Grosel, who replaced injured starter Anthony Brown (knee) on Oct. 5 at Louisville. Grosel won three of the five ACC games he started and finished with a Birmingham Bowl loss to Cincinnati. - Boston Herald
