Grambling's young talent still has growing up to do

GRAMBLING, LA — Grambling traveled to Reno, Nevada on Saturday to play a game it wasn’t supposed to win. And to little surprise, Nevada easily beat the visiting Tigers, 49-13. Though the game may not have been competitive, it gave Grambling coach Rod Broadway and his coaching staff a great opportunity to evaluate their football team.

The consensus? The Tigers have playmaking ability, but they’re inexperienced, and have a lot of growing to do. “We traveled with 62 guys, and 44 of those are freshmen and sophomores,” Broadway said. “There’s a learning curve there. Our problem is simple. We’re young and we’re talented. We just need some senior leadership, and we only have six guys in our senior class. Our guys are going to be okay.”
