Jax State coach Rich Rodriguez told reporters Monday that Logan Smothers and Tyler Huff are co-starters headed into Thursday, with Zion Turner sitting behind the veteran duo.
Furman Paladins quarterback Tyler Huff runs with the ball during an NCAA college football game against the Clemson Tigers in Clemson, S.C., Saturday, Sept. 10, 2022. Huff transferred to Jacksonville State and has been named a co-starter. While Jacksonville State coach Rich Rodriguez isn’t naming his starter ahead of Thursday’s kickoff against Coastal Carolina, he did reveal that he’s narrowed down his decision.
Smothers, a Muscle Shoals native who transferred from Nebraska, played in every game last season behind Zion Webb. He led the team in rushing touchdowns and totaling 322 rushing yards. He also threw for 735 yards and six touchdowns, earning Conference USA player of the week honors after his performance against Sam Houston State.
“We’ve got three guys that have gotten a lot of game experience, which is a good thing,” Rodriguez said. “It’s all new for some of them in our system, but I feel pretty comfortable with those three guys playing, and even Caden Creel and Te’Sean Smoot have shown some good stuff, too. “I know Logan and Tyler are going to play, for sure,” Rodriguez said. “I wouldn’t be shocked if Zion gets some reps, too. They’ve all been running all the stuff, you know what I mean? We’ve had every quarterback run everything, so I feel good with that.”
