Quarterback Questions for Sun Belt teams

excerpts from the Jonesboro Sun:

...Arkansas State isn’t the only Sun Belt Conference school with quarterback question marks.

Several coaches from around the league said they hadn’t solidified their No. 1 quarterback by the end of spring football practices last week during Tuesday’s Sun Belt Conference teleconference.

Arkansas State, which won the league with a 5-2 record in conference play last year, will have a new starter at quarterback next season following the departure of senior Nick Noce. ASU finished its spring practices with redshirt freshman Corey Leonard and sophomore Travis Hewitt still battling for the position...

...North Texas coach Darrell Dickey said he believes his team is in much better shape at quarterback following the spring work.

“I’m much more pleased this year at this time than I was last year at this time,” Dickey said. “ ... This year we have got three young men that we think can play and they are all taking care of their business off the field. Meager went through spring but had some days he missed. Matt Phillips had an excellent spring, probably better than anybody. And Woody Wilson, a junior college guy that we signed, really showed signs that he can do some of the things that we’d like to do offensively.” ...

...[uL-Monroe] will look to sophomore Kinsmon Lancaster as Jyles’ replacement. Lancaster played sparingly last season at quarterback as Jyles’ backup and also some at receiver and slot.

“He’s a guy that is an athletic young man, that is sharp and very intelligent,” ULM coach Charlie Weatherbie said. “We believe he’ll lead this football team..."

...Florida Atlantic, which finished tied for last in the Sun Belt, is still looking for a new quarterback for the fall. The Owls were steered by senior Danny Embrick last season but came out of spring workouts with nothing settled.

Among the competition for the starting job is sophomore McKinson Souverain, junior Sean Clayton and redshirt freshman Rusty Smith. Clayton and Souverain both saw action last year with Clayton taking the majority of the snaps as the backup...

...Troy coach Larry Blakeney said his spring workouts produced a quarterback that was well ahead of the pack.

Omar Haugabook, a 6-foot-2, 220-pound junior college transfer, will go into fall as the Owls’ starter. Haugabook beat out returning senior QB Carl Meadows among several others as the Trojans switch gears to a more pass-oriented offense...

...Middle Tennessee returns Clint Marks for his senior season, while Florida International will return Josh Padrick for his senior year. Louisiana-Lafayette quarterbacks Michael Desormeaux, a sophomore, and senior Jerry Babb also return with Desormeaux the likely starter...
