Wilson, Evans focus of practice

With N.C. State’s quarterback race down to two players — graduate student Daniel Evans and redshirt freshman Russell Wilson — coach Tom O’Brien and offensive coordinator Dana Bible’s attentions have to be on finding the best player for the starting job.

While it is likely both will have a fair shot to showcase their play next Thursday night at South Carolina, O’Brien is still working on naming a starting, saying Wednesday that he would wait until South Carolina asks for the final depth chart.

Passing stats still have not been released for the past two scrimmages, but Wilson said he is handling the idea of dual-quarterback system just fine.

“No matter what, if it’s a dual quarterback system or not, I still have to focus on every snap,” Wilson said.

Though much of the focus in practice surely has been on Wilson and Evans, Wilson said his role at practice hasn’t changed at all.

“I’m still trying to focus on getting the starting job and if I don’t I’m still going to work to make sure that if I do get in there I’m ready to go,” Wilson said.
