JacQai Long News: Starting in season opener

Long will get the start for Marshall during Saturday's opener against Georgia.

Long, who was originally listed as a co-starter for the contest, will get the first crack at the starting spot under center against a tough Bulldogs' squad. The 6-foot-2 redshirt freshman, who beat out Del Rio-Wilson for the start, will have a tall task ahead of him in his first collegiate start.
