The Southern Miss Golden Eagles started year two of the Jay Hopson era at home against the Kentucky Wildcats. With the departure of Southern Miss great Nick Mullens at quarterback, today we got our first look at who will fill Mullens’ shoes.
With 1:37 left in the game trailing 24-17, Kwadra Griggs appears to be the guy moving forward. After being subbed in to start the second half due to an ineffective Keon Howard, Griggs put USM in position to tie the game but ended up coming short as the Golden Eagles were unable to move the ball with their backs to the goal line.
