Transfer QB Grayson McCall no longer visiting Auburn this weekend
Coastal Carolina transfer quarterback Grayson McCall was planning to take an official visit to Auburn this weekend, but those plans have changed.
McCall, who is ranked by On3 as the No. 4 transfer quarterback, no longer will visit Auburn, according to a source close to McCall’s recruitment. A reason for the cancelation is unknown.
McCall on Monday announced his intentions to transfer from Coastal Carolina. He will be leaving the Chanticleers program after passing for 8,019 yards and 78 touchdowns with only eight interceptions. He did all of it while completing 70.4 percent of his passes.
McCall also has rushed for 1,053 yards and 16 touchdowns.
McCall has two years of eligibility.
No. 1 transfer QB visiting Auburn
Even though McCall no longer will be visiting, Auburn will have another transfer quarterback on campus.
Devin Leary, who is ranked by On3 as the No. 3 overall transfer and No. 1 quarterback, arrived in Auburn on Friday for an official visit, according to Auburn Live’s Keith Niebuhr.

Here’s more on Leary from On3’s Justin Rudolph:
Leary was a four-star recruiting win for Dave Doeren’s NC State program out of Sicklerville (N.J.) Timber Creek in the class of 2018. The top-350 prospect finished his prep career as New Jersey’s all-time leader in passing yards (9,672) and passing touchdowns (117).

Leary would become a starter in the last five games in 2019 as a redshirt freshman at NC State. From there, he became one of the best quarterbacks in the ACC.
Leary complied 26 career starts during his time in Raleigh with the last three seasons coming under offensive coordinator Tim Beck. During that run with Beck — who was just named head coach at Coastal Carolina — the 6-1 quarterback tossed for 54 touchdowns in 21 games completing over 60 percent of his passes each year.
The numbers dipped in 2022 (6.6 yards per attempt, 41.3 % success rate, 2.1% interception rate, 130.9 QB rating, 15% explosive pass rate), but NC State had a woeful rushing attack (No. 90 in rush success rate, No. 122 in yards per rush, and No. 113 in rush EPA). However, the good from the first two years outweigh the bad.
Leary posted over eight yards per attempt in both 2020 and 2021 leading the Wolfpack to a 12-3 record while scoring 33.1 points per game. Add in the six starts in 2022, and Leary was 17-4 as a starter under Beck with each loss occurring in true road games against Power Five teams with winning records.
