On Tuesday, coach Phil Bennett said Jerad Romo would start at quarterback. That changed Wednesday when Bennett said he was not sure who would start Saturday at Marshall. Romo and Tony Eckert have taken most of the reps in practice.
Bennett said a decision would be made today. When asked the reason for the change, he said: "I want to see somebody take charge."
Both quarterbacks should play, but Bennett will have a quick hook if either struggles.
"We're not going to wait for somebody to get going," he said.
Briefly ...
The starting running back position is open. Five players are competing for playing time, including Jessie Henderson, who leads Conference USA in kick returns. ... There also could be changes on the offensive line for the game at Marshall.
