QB Country recently expanded its program for quarterbacks of all levels to Charlotte, North Carolina. Training will begin Jan. 4 at the D1 Sports Training & Therapy center. Former Duke University quarterback, Anthony Boone will lead QB Country Charlotte training and operations.

“QB Country is excited to begin training quarterbacks in Charlotte. We expand to markets where a coach has a strong relationship with the community,” said QB Country Founder David Morris, a former quarterback at Ole Miss. “Having the right people on board is crucial. Anthony is a student of the game and a talented communicator and leader. We are thrilled he will run our Charlotte location at D1.”

Anthony was born and raised in Weddington, North Carolina where he attended Weddington High School. He was listed as 37th-best quarterback in the nation by ESPN. After choosing to attend Duke, he patiently waited for his turn to lead the team. From 2010-2012 he sat behind eventual NFL draft  selection Sean Renfree. In 2012 he played in 12 games behind Renfree. Before the 2013 season, Boone was named the starter and took on the leadership role immediately. Boone was voted a captain of the 2013 team. As a starter that year, Boone led Duke to a 9-2 record despite suffering a fractured collarbone in week two at Memphis. He completed 64% of his passes and threw for 2,260 with 13 TDs.

As a Senior in 2014, Boone was once again was voted a team captain and started all 13 games for the Blue Devils. He led Duke to another 9 win season, marking the first time in Duke history to accomplish back to back 9 win seasons. Boone threw for more than 2700 yards & 19 TD’s. He received honorable mention All-ACC honors and was named Duke’s MVP.

“I’m excited to further the QB Country brand into the Carolinas,” said Boone. “I’m also excited for the opportunity to give back to the Carolinas every bit of knowledge I’ve gained from Coach David Cutcliffe, Kurt Roper, Scottie Montgomery and David Morris.” Boone is Duke University’s all-time winningest quarterback and a member of the 2013 ACC Coastal Division Championship team.

QB Country partnered with D1 Sports Training in 2013 as their exclusive quarterback training company. Charlotte marks the training program’s eighth location with plans to launch operations in Atlanta and New Orleans in early 2016.

“D1’s relationship with QB Country is complementary as our organizations help impact and grow athletes on and off the field,” said D1 Sports CEO Dan Murphy. “QB Country’s attention to detail and holistic approach is what makes them the premier quarterback training program in the country.”
