Ahead of Saturday’s Homecoming game against Texas San
Antonio, Marshall football coach Doc Holliday announced that Josh
Lovell has left the team. A backup offensive guard, he played in two games
this season.
Last year the redshirt junior appeared in 11 of Marshall’s 12
games. Entering August training camp, Lovell battled with Sebastian Johannson
for the starting job at left guard. Johannson got the nod and Lovell was relegated
to back-up duty.
Notes – Holliday also said the Thundering Herd is nearly 100% healthy
minus defensive end Jeremiah Taylor. That means reigning C-USA freshman of the
year Kevin Grooms is expected to play this week. The sophomore running back has
only carried the ball 19 times while nursing a high ankle sprain. Also expected
to play after recently suffering injuries, defensive tackle Brandon
Sparrow, wide receiver Craig Wilkins, and tight end Gator Hoskins.
For UTSA, it appears that backup safety Michael
Egwuagu will be the Roadrunners only notable absence.
