Montana State has tabbed sophomore Cody Kempt to start Saturday's season opener against Adams State at quarterback, Bobcat coach Rob Ash indicated Tuesday morning.
Ash and his staff decided on the starter after Monday 's practice, the culmination of a positional battle that remained neck-and-neck since camp opened. "This was an excruciating decision for our staff, because both quarterbacks played extremely well in the entire pre-season camp," Ash said. "Their statistics for the three weeks of practice were almost exactly even, and they are both excellent leaders with an impressive understanding of the game. We have great confidence in both young men."
Ash indicated that both quarterbacks will play Saturday, and that he is happy to have a pair of quality quarterbacks. "Even though Cody will get the start, Mark Iddins will definitely see action in the opening game," Ash said.
