Following Maalik Murphy entering transfer portal this question comes to mind,

Who is going to start for Duke, Head Coach Manny Diaz at quarterback when Duke opposes Ole Miss? Duke Head Coach Manny Diaz has a couple of options in Henry Belin who in 2024 has 1 completed pass, 1 attempt for 7 yards. Grayson Loftis who in 2024 has thrown for 0 yards , 0 touchdowns had 0 interceptions because he hasn’t had the opportunity to play. Will the Tax Slayer give Grayson Loftis that opportunity? I think it should be because he knows what playing in a bowl is like because he played in the Birmingham Bowl last December completing 19-23 passes for 83 yards in Duke’s 17-10 win over Troy.

According to Stephen Wiseman News & Observer article https://www.newsobserver.com/sports/college/acc/duke/article296855229.html

Meanwhile Henry Belin IV hasn’t played in a bowl game just a regular season game this season when completed 1 pass against NC State.
