“First off, I’m extremely proud, it’s been hard, first one in my family so I owed it to them to follow through with this,” Marshall said during a conference call Wednesday. “I didn’t do anything for five or six years so it made going back even harder, one or two, three classes at a time, first semester quietly getting them done.
“I really have my wife (Allison) to thank for most if it because she has been the motivator behind a lot of this. I’m glad it’s over but very proud.”
Marshall earned All-Big 12 second team honors as a freshman and sophomore at Kansas State in 2009 and 2010.
