PROVO — For the past two seasons, a former BYU quarterback was at the controls of Portland State’s offense.
Alex Kuresa returns to LaVell Edwards Stadium Saturday (1 p.m., MDT, ESPN) when the Vikings visit the Cougars in one of the first college football games of the 2017 season.
But he won’t be playing.
Kuresa, who graduated last year and is a former Mountain Crest High star, was invited by PSU coach Bruce Barnum to serve as an honorary captain and participate in the pregame coin toss.
