Jim Harbaugh offers Southfield 7th-grader Isaiah Marshall scholarship, dad says

Brian Marshall played football at Northwestern 20 years ago after being a star running back for legendary coach Al Fracassa at Birmingham Brother Rice.

Now Marshall’s 13-year-old son, Isaiah Marshall, already is making a name for himself as a quarterback on the Southfield Falcons youth team.

In fact, Isaiah Marshall — a seventh-grader at MacArthur Academy in Southfield — already has received college attention, getting an offer Tuesday morning from Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh.

“It happened this morning when Coach Harbaugh came to Southfield (A&T) and he reviewed a lot of his tape, broke it down and critiqued it and made the offer,” Brian Marshall said.
