College Note - Florida Jason Marshall Jr.
Florida junior cornerback Jason Marshall Jr. wants to become a more vocal leader on the defense this spring. "There's young guys coming in and they're looking up to me and some of the other guys," Marshall said following Saturday's first spring practice. "Setting that foundation and me having my game experience and experience here in college in general, they're going to look up to me, ask questions." Marshall, out of Miami Palmetto High School, is coming off a sophomore season in which he started all 13 games - recording eight pass breakups, one tackle for loss and one interception. As Florida's top cover corner, the 6-foot-1, 197-pound Marshall set goals of becoming faster and stronger during the offseason. But with the departure of linebackers Ventrell Miller Jr., Amari Burney and defensive lineman Gervon Dexter Sr., Marshall is preparing to make an impact beyond the playing field as well. "It all started end of last year," Marshall said. "With guys like Ventrell leaving and Gervon leaving, th ose were your vocal guys on defense. I'm in that role. I have to step up and be more vocal toward the defense." - Gainesville SunOther Recent Stories
