With Trubisky making it official, the Coastal is wide open for 2017

Going into this past football season, there was one story that rang true for the ACC among college football enthusiasts... Holy crap did we have a nice stable of quality QBs. While the Atantic got the Heisman headlines with Watson and Jackson doing their thing, the Coastal more than held their own in their own right, and its entirely possible you'll see these Coastal QBs leading their future NFL teams to glory down the line. That said, you're about to see a whole slew of new faces next year.

Kaaya is gone. Evans is gone. Justin Thomas graduated. Peterman graduated. And now Trubisky has declared for the draft.

The Top 5 teams in the Coastal Division will be breaking in a new starting QB this Spring. Of the remaining two, Duke has question marks, with Jones playing well, but Sirk ready to come back. And UVa is UVa.

So for those worried that we're in a bad spot going into next year because Evans left, remember that everyone else in this division that matters will be going through the exact same thing next year. The division is wide open, but some would make the argue that even now, we're in a better spot going forward than our peers.
