Texas State will have a new opening-day starter at quarterback.
That’s not a question anymore as Willie Jones III transferred away this offseason. That leaves new head coach Jake Spavital with a glut of options to fill the spot with, chief among them junior transfer Gresch Jensen and sophomores Tyler Vitt and Jaylen Gipson.
The team will also have a new leading pass-catcher this season, as tight end Keenen Brown entered his name into the NFL Draft. During the Bobcats’ Maroon & Gold Spring Game last Saturday, I kept track of who each of the signal-callers targeted during their time on the field, whether the pass was completed or not, to get a sense of which receiver could see their role expand with a new quarterback in 2019.
