Neal Brown Delivers Promising Update on Garrett Greene, Discusses QB Situation Against Baylor

W.V. Head coach Neal Brown is not ready to reveal his starting quarterback for this Saturday’s game against the Baylor Bears.

“Garrett practiced today. We’ll see how he does tomorrow when it’s 11-on-11, but we’ll see how the week goes,” Brown said during his Monday press conference. “We’ll have both quarterbacks ready. I’m not really going to say anything. He practiced a little last Wednesday, but this was the first time he really practiced. He’ll practice tomorrow and then we’ll make some decisions as the week goes on, but we’re not going to comment on that.”

Senior Garrett Greene suited up last week for the Cincinnati game but did not play. He has missed the last two games with an upper body injury. An update could be revealed during his coaches’ show on Thursday, or he could keep it close to the vest to keep Baylor guessing.

In two games as West Virginia’s starter, Marchiol has a 2-0 record with wins over Arizona and Cincinnati. He completed 18 of 22 passes for 198 yards and two touchdowns against Arizona and then went 9 of 15 for 156 yards with one touchdown and one interception each.

Before the injury, Greene had a disappointing start to the season throwing the ball, completing just 56% of his passes for 1,352 yards and nine touchdowns with eight interceptions.

West Virginia and Baylor will kick off at 4 pm EST on ESPN2.
