  Draft Scout by Conference









  Since arriving on Marshall's campus in January 2019, Grant Wells has approached each day visualizing that he was the starting quarterback for the Thundering Herd. That vision is now reality as Marshall head coach Doc Holliday confirmed Wells will be the Herd's starting quarterback when the team takes the field against Eastern Kentucky at 1 p.m. Saturday at Joan C. Edwards Stadium. "I just think it's his job," Holliday said. "He's settled into that position and he's always had the skill set. We knew when we recruited him that he had the skill set to make all the throws and be extremely athletic." Wells' first action as the starting quarterback for Marshall will come in front of a nationally televised audience on ESPN. However, the Herd's new quarterback said it doesn't change his mentality moving forward.

"Whether the game is on TV or not, we're still going to prepare the same," Wells said. When Wells makes the start Saturday, the Charleston native and former George Washington High School standout will become the first in-state quarterback to start for the Herd since Mark Zban did so Sept. 16, 1995, against Georgia Southern - 25 years ago. Wells' arm strength has stood out during Marshall's camp, and that is not limited to being in the pocket. Some of Wells' top throws have come on the move, which offensive coordinator Tim Cramsey said is one of his best attributes. - Charleston Gazette
