Leary, the NC State transfer, was in high demand this offseason. Here's how he and the Wildcats realized they were a perfect match.
, transferred to Illinois and became a student assistant after throwing more career interceptions than touchdowns.
“And it was just really cool, the interactions he had with the coaches. It was very family-like,” Leary says. “It was not fake or trying to show off because I was there. It was very genuine, how they feel about Will and how he was talking to Coach Stoops and Coach Woody and Coach Marrow. It was this really cool vibe that they loved him as a person and he respected them so much as coaches. He turned to me like, ‘This was my life every day when I was here. This is awesome.
The belief that Coen’s offense is preparing him for the NFL has only strengthened since Leary arrived on campus and started learning the system. This summer, he was watching the Netflix documentary series “Quarterback,” which follows Vikings QB Kirk Cousins and two others, and Leary realized he was watching the same plays and hearing the same terminology that Kentucky uses every day.
Leary has been throwing it pretty darn good for a very long time. But first, he had to figure out which arm to use. His dad, a former Division III offensive lineman and pitcher, badly wanted Devin to be a lefty. So he learned to do everything left-handed — until one day, he picked up his older brother’s right-handed baseball glove and realized he could zip it throwing righty.
