MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — Middle Tennessee's search for a new starting quarterback can be made much easier by quality play from its offensive line.
Head coach Rick Stockstill has repeatedly expressed optimism regarding the line this offseason, saying at the team's season-opening press conference he saw "great leadership up there."
"They continued to get better this summer, and I'm anxious to see our improvement [in camp]," the 14th-year head coach said. "If we can stay healthy, I think we have a chance to be special up there."
Injuries have been a bit of a concern this offseason, with 2018 Honorable Mention All-C-USA recipient Josh Fannin and career 20-game starter Amir Luckett missing time.
