Anthony Boone finds purpose coaching QBs after accident ended playing career
By Pat Welter, WRAL
Quarterback isn’t just a position anymore it’s a science. The elaborate warm ups a group of high school and college quarterbacks are performing at Herndon Park in Durham on a hot July morning are proof.
“Palms facing sidelines,” Anthony Boone instructs his pupils. “If your shoulders are burning you’re doing it right.”
Boone is a quarterbacks coach for QB Country, a company founded by former Ole Miss quarterback David Morris. Boone typically does his work in the Charlotte area, but he’s made the trip across the state to work with some Triangle area athletes.
“I tell people all the time, you come to me you’re trying to get better,” Boone said. “If your name is Chris, I’m trying to make you the best Chris you can possibly be.”
