Wimbush showed off the athleticism
that made him the No. 4 dual-threat
quarterback in the 2015 recruiting class
according to Rivals. He completed 3 of
5 passes for 17 yards, but it was his
58-yard third-quarter touchdown run
that really opened eyes. He finished
the game with 92 rushing yards on
four attempts.
"As you can see, he's athletic," Kelly
said of his freshman signal-caller. "He
can throw the deep ball. … We'll con-
tinue to work with him, and he's got a
lot of talent."
