Coaching searches, recruiting take priority

The offseason is anything but for Marshall University’s football program. In addition to hiring a new offensive coordinator and defensive line coach, head coach Mark Snyder is heading what he obviously hopes is a third straight stellar recruiting performance. Junior college prospects take precedence during the next two weekends, with eight visiting this weekend. Feedback is welcomed on Marshall’s top recruiting priorities by position. My perspective: defensive line and cornerback are most in need of immediate impact.
