Northern Iowa coach Mark Farley named Aidan Dunne as the Panther’s starting quarterback in Saturday’s opener against Valparaiso. The native of Dubuque won a three way race that included Wisconsin native Matt Schecklman and former Southeast Polk star Jaxon Dailey. Dailey is a transfer from Arkansas State.
Farley says Dunne earned the starting job in fall camp.
Farley says all three quarterback have looked good in practice.
Dunne has appeared in seven games the past two years and Farley says there is no plan to rotate quarterbacks.
Reciver coach Joel Filani will call the plays on Saturday. Farley looked at several options for that role after offensive coordinator Luke Falk abruptly resigned this summer.
