  After losing its starting quarterback and virtually all pass catchers from the 2021 season, there is a lot of uncertainty as to what Western Michigan's offense will look like under first-year coordinator Jeff Thorne. And with that uncertainty comes skepticism about how the Broncos will fare in head coach Tim Lester's sixth season at the helm. Jack Salopek, last year's backup quarterback, exited spring ball with a slight edge over dual-threat signal caller Mareyohn Hrabowski and Alabama transfer Stone Hollenbach, and the redshirt freshman out of Pennsylvania took nearly all of the first-team reps on Thursday, continuing his trajectory for the starting job in Week 1.

"He had a great spring, great summer, and I've told everybody, the race just began today, but he's in the poll position," Lester said. "He got the most reps with the 1s. The back-shoulder one he threw down the sideline was impressive. I thought he made good decisions, but we have to watch the film." WMU football. Salopek, 6-1, 185, showed enough zip to deliver a strike across the field on an out route, good placement on a seam route to tight end Austin Hence and good touch on a back-shoulder fade to Wisconsin transfer A.J. Abbott, who made a sliding catch between defenders against a WMU zone. - Kalamazoo Gazette

Last year (2021), Mihalic (5-11, 205) punted 47 times for the Broncos, averaging 41.9 yards per boot. The 41.9 average ranked fourth in the Mid-American Conference and was the ninth-best single-season average in WMU program history.

Nine of his punts were 50 yards or longer, including a season-high 58-yard punt against Illinois State. In addition to punting, Mihalic also served as WMU's primary kickoff specialist, handling 75 kickoffs, 15 of which went for touchbacks.
