Indiana Football: Tom Allen names Tayven Jackson starting quarterback

And now it’s official. Indiana has its starting quarterback.

Per a tweet from Zach Osterman, Coch Tom Allen announced today that Tayven Jackson would be the starting quarterback moving forward. Though he was technically the starter last week against Indiana State, he and Brendan Sorsby split reps in a continuation of the quarterback battle that began in spring camp.

Luke had a good write up earlier today getting into it in more depth, but Tayven absolutely earned the job last weekend against Indiana State, giving Indiana a passing attack it hasn’t had since Mike Penix was healthy.
