NC State opened spring practice Tuesday with big spots to fill, including quarterback. I had a chance to catch up with head coach Dave Doeren for his thoughts on that position, as well as goals for the defense this spring.
What is your take on the quarterback competition between Jalan McClendon and Jakobi Meyers this spring?
Dave Doeren: The natural inclination would be the older guy wins, and Jalan may win. But with this being a new system and both these kids not having a game as a starter, we feel having a little competition in the spring is a good thing, so we’ll see where it takes us.
