National analysts have raved about Newman's ability, particularly after he advanced to the semifinals of the Elite 11 quarterback competition. Wake Forest fans should be very excited about this addition. Coach Clawson and his staff continue to add depth and versatility (and now, height) to the quarterback position. Jamie, welcome to Wake and we look forward to seeing you take the field as a Demon Deacon!
