Quarterback Grayson McCall, one of the most experienced quarterbacks in the transfer portal, announced his commitment to play for N.C. State next season on Wednesday.
The former Coastal Carolina quarterback set program records with 10,005 passing yards and 88 passing touchdowns across his five seasons with the Chanticleers. He averaged 9.8 yards per attempt over his entire career, he threw just 14 interceptions, and he won the Sun Belt Player of the Year Award three straight times from 2020-22.
McCall broke out in 2020, his redshirt freshman season. He threw for 2,488 yards, 26 touchdowns, and three interceptions, completing 68.8% of his passes.

He improved the following year, setting personal bests in completion percentage (73.0%), passing yards (2,873), yards per attempt (11.3), and passing touchdowns (27) while still only throwing three interceptions.
As the Chanticleers starting quarterback, McCall led his team to a pair of Sun Belt conference championship appearances in 2020 and 2022. Coastal Carolina went 38-12 across the past four seasons, but McCall and former head coach Jamey Chadwell were a combined 31-6 before Chadwell left to be the head coach at Liberty for the 2023 season.
