New QB, no problem: Delta spreads the wealth in season-opening win

MUNCIE, Ind. — Imagine for a second being Brady Hunt on Friday night. You're looking at your teammates in the huddle — well, looking down at your teammates. He's 6-foot-5, while his tallest skill player is 6-3 and biggest lineman is 6-1. Anyways, it's your first start at quarterback and your workhorse from the last two years, Charlie Spegal, is not there.

A sophomore, Hunt said he was nervous all day. But once he completed his first pass, it was game on.

"It's always nerve-wracking going into your first game, no matter what sport it is," said Hunt, who had six catches as a freshman receiver last year.
