Report: Former ACC QB transfers to Bethune-Cookman

DAYTONA BEACH, FL - Bethune-Cookman's answer to replacing Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference Offensive Player of the Year Matt Johnson just might be a player who already has graduated from college.

Former University of Maryland starting quarterback Jamarr Robinson has transferred to Bethune-Cookman, according to a report in USA Today.

B-CU head coach Brian Jenkins declined to comment on Robinson, and the News-Journal was not allowed access to Thursday's practice.

Robinson was redshirted his first season at Maryland and graduated within four years, so he has one year of playing eligibility remaining. He can transfer down a level from Maryland, a Football Bowl Subdivision team in the Atlantic Coast Conference, to a Football Championship Subdivision (formally I-AA) school, enroll in a graduate-degree program and play right away, pending NCAA approval. B-CU is an FCS school and offers two graduate-degree programs.
