Norfolk State still waiting for its starting quarterback

NORFOLK, Virginia  --  The quarterback Pete Adrian seeks to run his offense doesn’t have to be a star.

A careful, competent cast member will do just fine.

Adrian has spent a large chunk of his time lately vetting his candidates, splitting practice reps evenly among three sophomores and poring over film of their progress late into the night.

Adrian believes the other requisite pieces of his offense are in place, which is why he’s prepared to stretch out the process to find the right guy.

“The bottom line, and it’s real simple: The guy you’re having out there is the guy you’ve got to trust,” said Adrian, who said he doesn’t plan to name a starter before the Spartans open the season Aug. 31 against Maine. “That’s the bottom line. That covers everything.”
