- Despite the loss of
Dave Corley, Jr. to graduation, the cupboard is far from bare for W&M at the quarterback position. After spending the past three seasons learning at Corley's side, the coaching staff is extremely confident in the abilities of
Lang Campbell.
A competitive player with good arm strength, Campbell is an intelligent signal caller who also has the speed to scramble out of the pocket when necessary. In his limited game experience as Corley's backup the past two years, Campbell has completed 15 of 23 passes for 210 yards and two touchdowns. While his game action has been brief, he has spent the past two springs working extensively with the first team and has displayed outstanding leadership skills and a strong working knowledge of the team's intricate attack.
Behind Campbell on the depth chart is sophomore
Jacob Lewis, who displayed a strong arm and good mobility in spring drills. Lewis has gained a better working knowledge of the Tribe's offensive schemes each year at W&M.
Also in the picture at QB is sophomore
Ben Lawrence, who saw a lot of action in spring drills and has gained a better grasp of the Tribe offense. In addition, redshirt freshmen
Corey Davis and
Christian Taylor are back after working with the scout team last year. Both have good arm strength and will develop with more reps.
