Matt Misley has acquired valuable experience as an understudy to Nick Doscher the last two seasons and is in competition for the starting quarterback spot. A well-rounded athlete with running ability helps keep defenses honest, he’s also a comfortable pocket passer and adept at throwing on the run. Misley demonstrated his running skills by racing around eight end and up the sideline for a 63-yard touchdown jaunt in 2013 Green & White Game.
