It’s Grayson James o’clock
It sure has been a weird week in the Boston College football world. After Grayson James came into the game on Saturday to replace starting QB Thomas Castellanos, the BC offense found success and went on to defeat Syracuse to improve to 5-4. So head coach Bill O’Brien decided that the team would be better off with James as the starting quarterback moving forward.
As a result, Castellanos immediately left the program, nuked his Instagram account, made his intentions to enter the transfer portal clear, and then released this statement that definitely came from his heart and definitely was not written by a publicist.
Nonetheless, BC still has a football game to play on Saturday, and it’s a tough one. The Eagles will need to ignore the drama and focus up to face off against the 8-1 SMU Mustangs, who are ranked #14 in the nation and are one of the favorites to win the ACC.
