With options at QB, NSU coach seeks a clear choice

NORFOLK, Virginia  -- When Norfolk State conducts the first of 15 scheduled spring practices today, 10th-year coach Pete Adrian will have one top objective.

And it's no small task.

"We've got to find a starting quarterback," he said. "That's my main goal for the season, is to have a definite starter coming out of spring practice."

How definite that can be remains to be seen. In addition to rising juniors Tyler Clark, Malik Stokes and Omari Timmons, who split 11 of 12 starts last season, Adrian will have at least one more option after the spring.

Terrance Ervin, a 6-foot-3 incoming freshman who led Chesterfield's L.C. Bird High to consecutive state titles, will arrive for summer workouts in July. Ervin, who went 29-0 as a starter in high school, will be given a shot.
