  Redshirt freshman quarterback Grayson McCall was impressive in his first collegiate start at Kansas on Saturday, and he'll have more opportunities to impress as the season progresses. McCall beat out experienced juniors Fred Payton and Bryce Carpenter to earn the season-opening start and lead the Chanticleers to a 38-23 win over the Jayhawks. CCU coach Jamey Chadwell said the job is now his to lose. "We compete all the time, but it's his job," Chadwell said. "He earned that job and we're going to ride with him through the ups and downs of a freshman quarterback." As a redshirt freshman, Chadwell is not making McCall available to the media for now. But McCall spoke to CCU's sports information department following Saturday's win. "It's a really good start to the season," he said. "A lot of sacrifices up to this point for us to even just be able to play this game, so I'm really proud of the team and we're going to build on it and keep going."

McCall completed 11 of 18 passes for 133 yards and three touchdowns, and added 73 yards and two scores on 11 carries. He completed passes to six different players and led the offense to 318 yards and no turnovers. "It's one game, so I wouldn't say he's special right now," Chadwell said. "He played one game and did well. He could go out and lay an egg and you'll ask me why I'm playing him Friday. But he does have a great knack in the pocket, he's a tough kid, and the moment does not seem too big for him...He's got a pretty level head when he's out there on the field, and I do think that's got a chance to help him become hopefully a special player for us." - Myrtle Beach Online
