Scott Secules height - How tall is Scott Secules?

Secules was named the starter in his final year and although the team began the season 3–4, it won 5 straight games to finish with an 8–4 record. He also led one of the greatest comebacks in school history, with a 17-7 deficit against UNC in the final 4:44 minutes of the game, Secules passed for 2 touchdowns, en route to a 20-17 win. He received All-ACC honors (first Virginia quarterback since Bob Davis), while helping the school achieve its first home undefeated season since 1951 and reach its second bowl game in history, where they defeated Brigham Young University 22-16 in the All-American Bowl, with Secules being named the game's Most Valuable Player.

Secules worked as the Senior Associate Athletic Director for External Affairs at Virginia Commonwealth University from November 2006 until October 2009. He currently serves as the Senior Regional Manager for Partner Development for Positive Coaching Alliance - a national non-profit that focuses on developing kids through sports done right.

On March 22, 1993, he was signed as a free agent by the New England Patriots. He was the backup to rookie Drew Bledsoe and became the starter in the fifth game of the season against the Phoenix Cardinals, helping the team to its first win. He would lose his next 3 starts and in the ninth game while playing against the Buffalo Bills, he suffered a separated left shoulder and was replaced by a healthy Bledsoe. He was released on April 21, 1994.

In 1989, new head coach Jimmy Johnson brought in a new coaching staff and drafted two rookie quarterbacks (Troy Aikman and Steve Walsh), so he was traded to the Miami Dolphins in exchange for a fifth round draft choice (#120-James Gray) on August 6.

In 1989, the Miami Dolphins acquired Secules because they wanted to develop a young quarterback behind Dan Marino. In 1992, he was passed on the depth chart by Scott Mitchell and was eventually placed on the injured reserve list with a shoulder injury. He only threw 70 passes in three regular seasons and saw action mostly as a holder, having only one meaningful appearance during his time in Miami, where he threw 2 interceptions when Marino got hurt in a 1989 loss against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Secules was selected by the Dallas Cowboys in the sixth round (151st overall) of the 1988 NFL Draft. Head coach Tom Landry saw potential in his training camp performances and made the uncommon moves of not having him take snaps in preseason games and keeping 4 quarterbacks at the start of the regular season. After Danny White was lost for the year in the third game, Secules became the third-string quarterback but was declared inactive in all 16 games. At the end of the season, the team also protected him in Plan B free agency.

As a junior in 1986, Secules started 3 games with Majkowski out with an injured shoulder, he won the three contests and received ACC offensive player of the week honors for his play against Wake Forest University. Against Clemson University in the second of those starts, he completed 30 of 49 attempts for 298 yards and 2 touchdowns to set school records for completions and attempts.
