Position battles heat up as football spring game approaches

Ahead of the program’s Spring game on Friday, San Diego State football head coach Brady Hoke is beginning to identify the talent levels of some of his skill position players.

At what is without a doubt the most important position for the Aztecs going forward, Hoke said he has enjoyed watching his three quarterbacks on the roster all compete for the starting job.

The gunslingers that have the edge, according to Hoke, are seniors Lucas Johnson and Jordon Brookshire, as opposed to sophomore transfer Jalen Mayden.

“We’ve got great competitions at the position. Obviously Lucas (Johnson) and Jordon (Brookshire) are a little bit ahead of Jalen (Mayden) just because of being here for the fall season,” Hoke said.
