HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (AP) - Marshall begins spring football practice on Tuesday, and much of the attention in Huntington will go toward the competition at quarterback.

Five players are hoping to replace the departed Bernard Morris.

Brian Anderson was Morris' top backup last season. He appeared in five games and completed 12 of 28 passes for 94 with three interceptions and no touchdowns.

The other experienced signal-caller is Wes Beardain. He appeared in one game and completed one of two passes.

Others in the hunt are Georgia Tech transfer Jonathan Garner and freshmen Mark Cann and Chris Smith.

  • Mark Snyder Press Conference Quotes
    We went out on Sunday and started our prep for Cincinnati, implemented our game plan and yesterday was a day our kids usually had off but it seemed like the change was good, I thought our practice was sharp and we got some things done. It was a little better than last Tuesday's preparation day. We're very excited about coming back home.
